{"title":"M-41 Field Jacket","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eM-41 Field Jacket\u003c\/strong\u003e is an early standardised US Army combat jacket associated with America’s entry into WWII. Designed for versatility, it accompanied soldiers in Europe, North Africa and some Pacific operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIts cotton construction, usually olive or khaki, and light wool or flannel lining offered moderate protection from cold and wind while allowing movement. A relatively short cut, front zip with a buttoned flap and classic collar make it readily recognisable. It is associated with the early war years before more technical designs such as the M-43.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIts limits in severe weather, particularly winter, led to gradual replacement. Yet it remains an important historical design. Original examples are sought after, though often weakened by age.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpecialists including The Real McCoy’s, Buzz Rickson’s, Eastman Leather and Bronson offer reproductions following original cuts, materials and details with high construction standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSO INDUSTRIE’s selection includes premium reproductions and original jackets when condition permits, chosen for historical consistency, quality and wearability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLighter than some later military jackets, the M-41 suits everyday wear and military vintage or workwear-inspired outfits. Its simple, functional silhouette remains a timeless link to the early American WWII wardrobe.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[],"url":"https:\/\/so-industrie.shop\/en\/collections\/m41-field-jacket.oembed","provider":"SO INDUSTRIE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
