The LRB M1951 - Field Jacket
LRB M1951 Boreal Field Jacket is our version of the M1951 field shirt. We loved the style of the M1951, but wanted to add our own features to make it more functional.
The LRB M1951 is built using the same 100% wool that we use for our Boreal shirts. The LRB M1951 features a snap closure making this more of a Jacket than a shirt, though you can wear it either way. The outside has two upper chest pockets with flap closures - each secured with a snap. The underside of the flap is a camouflage cargo parachute dated 1952. The outside also has two side pockets - each with a D-ring to secure your keys or tools. The wrists are double snap closure. On the inside, there are four pockets sewn into 200 denier cordura - two open chest pockets and two zipper closure lower pockets.
Wool is naturally flame retardant, antibacterial, and resistant to dirt and oils. It holds body heat when it's wet, and wicks moisture away from your body to regulate your personal environment. You'll spend less time worrying about staying clean, working with fire in camp, or changing your layers when the temperatures shift. What's more, we've pre-shrunk the fabric so you can care for it at home.
Handmade with pride in Duluth, Minnesota.
Durable, Rugged, Outdoor Jacket Built to Last a Lifetime
Shipping
International Customer Shipping:
- Important: After placing your order, we will send you another invoice to cover shipping charges. The item will not be shipped until this additional invoice is paid.
- We can ship to virtually any address in the world. Note that there are restrictions on some products, and some products cannot be shipped to international destinations. We charge for shipping to the destination country; anything beyond that resides with the consumer and the specific country customs regulations. After making your purchase, another invoice will be sent to the buyer to cover shipping charges to the destination country.
- Customs - be aware of customs guidelines and any applicable charges. Customs regulations vary by country. Customs are outside of my control - each consumer is responsible to research and understand the regulations.
- Customs forms: Products purchased will never be declared as a gift to avoid the possibility of customs charges - doing so is fraud. If you are ordering a LRB M1951, Boreal shirt or Northwoods poncho, the item is identified as a 'wool shirt made in USA' on every customs form.
