American apparel manufacturer Nicks is best known for its impressive handmade boots, which are made by skilled craftsmen in the United States using American-sourced materials. They’ve recently partnered with another iconic American brand, Heat Straps, on an exciting new release, the Nicks x Heat Straps Patriot Type 1 Jacket.

Founded by firefighter brothers Jordan and Tyler Lang in 2018, Heat Straps has pioneered American workwear heritage with a selection of jackets, shirts, and other clothing. Their American-made approach to design and production makes them a perfect choice for collaborating with Nicks.

This is evident in the quality of the Nicks x Heat Straps Patriot Type 1 Jacket, from its use of rugged all-weather materials to the traditional cut and overall style. Made from a combination of US wool and waxed canvas and an exceptionally warm wool lining, it’s an iconic nod to jacket designs that have dominated the American Midwest for decades.

The Nicks x Heat Straps Patriot Type 1 Jacket has great character, from the creased lines and buttons to the stitching and wintery deep blue lining. Pockets are plentiful and spacious, with front and interior options for storing valuables like keys, wallets, and smartphones.

Presented in Brush Brown canvas and finished with a 64-Tan Roughout Collar, the Nicks x Heat Straps Patriot Type 1 Jacket is a must for anyone who spends their time outdoors in rough weather.
