CARE

UPGRADED CLASSIC: WWII M-43 US ARMY FIELD JACKET

The iconic M-43 field jacket, standard issue for US Army troops in WWII, was chosen for its versatile comfort in mixed conditions, including rain. It was used as an exterior shell, with layers underneath, in Winter.

However, whilst its pockets were really useful, it wasn't waterproof and the jacket would look really tatty, fast.

To our amazement, we couldn’t find a modern waterproof field jacket. Waterproofs seem narrowly focused on hiking or skiing, without thought for our diverse busy lives, or smartness.

Thus, in 2020 we launched our most versatile style, that can be worn anywhere - smart or muddy, that works and carries.

REALLY TOUGH, ALWAYS SMART

eVent, the kings of waterproof breathability, created this tough, 20,000 rated fabric for us.

The textured matte finish that's impossible to crease, makes it smart for office and low key for long hikes.

REMOVABLE HOOD

Choosing one jacket to cover everything? Get this.

That means we've given it a removable hood, for swish dates and smart board meetings.

The hood itself is highly shock-cord adjustable, and we've even created a channel to hide the half-zip left when it is removed. We think of everything, if we may be so bold.

8 WATERPROOF CARGO POCKETS

How many waterproofs have 4 cargo pockets, 2 hand pockets, even an internal one for a book? All sealed with easy, very clunkable magnets?

None. We checked.

We tailor for men from 5'4" to 6'10" tall.

That means eleven sizes & free sleeve alterations, unique in jacket brands.

Importantly, we take time to tailor exceptional fabrics that drape flatteringly, not suck around the bits you didn't want to accentuate.

We make you look manly, in a "I want to feel good, but not look like I'm trying too hard" way.

If you're not sure of your size, we can check your exact size easily. Everyone here has been helping men with sizing for years.

CHANGE YOUR MIND?

No problem. No explanation needed. Pre-orders can be cancelled any time. You get 90 days once you've got your FRAHM.

WE DON'T STACK IT HIGH, OR SELL IT CHEAP

Nothing exceptional was ever easy.

Great jackets don't sit on dusty shelves with half price tickets on.

We choose to be slow & expensive, to carefully build an extraordinary reputation for doing what we promised we would.

Our singular concentration on long term reputation, not weekly sales targets, means you get a far better jacket.

WHY PRE-ORDER?

NO DISTRACTIONS

FRAHM is focussed on doing one thing really well - we upgrade classic men's jackets styles. That's it.

We make each design once a year. Each one is spread across the calendar. We're not distracted by the constant pressure to create new fashion ranges every six months.

After we've delivered that year's edition to our customers, we re-launch the next year's edition.

WHEN SHOULD I ORDER?

The short answer is always as soon as you can.

We're booking production space and getting fabric made twelve months before they've even been made.

Options gradually run out as we tick down from 12 months ahead to the arrival date.

If you see gaps in the options of colour/size, etc, that's an alarm bell.

WHY IS EVERYTHING 20% OFF?

That 20% discount doesn't mean we're in a Sale. We don't do them. We don't overbuy! That's your pre-order reward.

You help us, we help you. Fair.

If there's any stock left, or rare returns, they are at full price.

Whilst it hasn't rained yet, I have been enjoying the practicality of this jacket. And a colleague said I looked very smart in it at work the other day.
