Vollebak’s latest drop isn’t just outerwear—it’s wearable history reimagined through cutting-edge tech. The Salt-Shrunk M65 Field Jacket is a radical reinvention of the military staple, engineered with a 400-year-old Japanese fabric treatment that uses salt, heat, and modern chemistry to alter fabric at the molecular level. The result? A unique texture, structure, and technical performance topography makes each jacket unique.

The outer shell is crafted from 100% recycled nylon, doused in a benzyl alcohol solution and salt-shrunk in Japan to achieve a crumpled, dense finish that’s lightweight, water-repellent, and breathable. It’s then cut into a refined take on the iconic M65 silhouette, featuring four storm-flap pockets, twin-needle stitching at all stress points, and a two-way Riri zipper protected by a metal snap-fastened storm flap. A concealed zip chest pocket adds internal security, while adjustable cuffs and a pointed collar enhance military-inspired functionality.

The Vollebak jacket’s subtle, warped finish in Military Green and Royal Blue catches the light in unpredictable ways, showcasing centuries-old craftsmanship with modern intent. It’s lined in a cotton-nylon blend from South Korea and built for everything from urban exploration to high-stakes travel.

At $895, this isn’t just a field jacket—it’s a future heirloom, shaped by fire, salt, and purpose. Vollebak doesn’t follow trends—it redefines them.
