A relatively lightweight insulated cold-weather jacket, designed for field and combat use. Lightweight and packable, easy to carry with you, and comfortable to use, overall a significant improvement over the Finnish Defence Forces issue M05 cold weather parka.

• Generous fit for wear over multiple under layers
• Helmet-sized adjustable hood w/ fleece lining
• Full-length front zipper w/ storm flap
• 2-way underarm ventilation zippers
• Articulated elbows
• Reinforced elbows w/ pad pockets
• Hook-and-loop adjustable cuffs
• Elastic drawcord adjustable hem
• Loop bars for name, rank and sleeve patches
• Four pockets:
  • Two zippered chest pockets
  • Two zippered upper arm pockets
• Weight: 790 g / 28 oz. (Medium Regular)
• All materials are NIR compliant

Designed foremost as an active insulation garment for extreme cold weather, the fit and details serve this purpose: upper arm pockets offer accessible storage even when the chest pockets are covered by body armour and load bearing vests. The elbows are reinforced with 500D Cordura, and these reinforcements double up as pad pockets for elbow pad inserts. Underarm ventilation zippers help lessen your thermal load during high activity levels.

The latest version has 2-way underarm ventilation zippers, and the hook & loop panels on the storm flap are reversed (hook on the flap, loop on the chest), which will reduce the possibility of unwanted hook & loop attachment to your cuff etc. The retiring versions are marked so in the size listing.

The L5 Thermal Jacket also functions as a static insulation garment and can be donned over your regular lightweight field uniform. However, unlike the L5 Thermal Anorak this jacket is not designed for wear over armour and load bearing gear.

L5 - Thermal Shell

The fifth layer of the Varusteleka Clothing System is designed for quick layering over your field wear, or for wear as a stand-alone cold weather uniform. Generous ventilation zippers minimize the thermal load of the layer, allowing the wearer added comfort. Camouflage prints and visible accessories are 100% NIR compliant.
