Taslan Coach Jacket
UNISEX

Introduction

Taslan Coach Jacket from surplus fabric

At one of our factories, we discovered some leftover pieces of Taslan nylon (120g/m2), the fabric we use for our 5-Pocket Pants/Shorts. There was a wide variety of colors. Some only a couple of meters, but some hundreds of meters from both current and discontinued models.

Like the 5-Pocket Pants/Shorts, the Taslan Coach Jacket is highly durable and quick-drying, but it is not designed to serve you as special-purpose hiking gear. It is comfortable for general purposes, but, frankly speaking, perhaps a bit heavy for UL hiking.

Get it while you can! This is a super limited run. One-of-a-kind that will probably not be sold ever again!

Form and Function

Put your collar up to keep your neck warm

In the early mornings or chilly evenings when you want to keep your neck warm, just turn up your collar and fasten it with a single button to keep out the wind. Also great when trying to avoid your neck getting sunburned at the height of summer.

Outstanding Durability

The Taslan Coach Jacket is made of durable and fast-drying Taslan nylon (120 grams per square meter) with a cotton-like texture, the same fabric as our 5-Pocket Pants. The chart below shows a comparison of the strength of our middle layer, jackets and shirts.

The values indicate the averages of the vertical and horizontal values.

Fast-drying

In the pouring rain, even water-repellent finished clothes will unavoidably get wet. Also, even the highest-spec rainwear gets soaked from the moisture caused by sweat during intense exercise.

Hence, what we prioritize is how fast the fabric can dry after getting wet, rather than to make a lot of effort to keep them completely dry.

The below chart compares the moisture content in the fabric of the Taslan Coach Jacket with synthetic base layers and normal cotton after a 15 minutes spin cycle.
The lower the moisture content, the faster the fabric will dry. As can be seen on the chart, the Taslan Coach Jacket is almost completely dry with a moisture content of only 1% after 15 minutes of spin-dry.

Details

Standard and simple neck design.

A center loop allows it to be hung for drying.

Snap buttons allow for speedy opening and closing while moving about.

The design incorporates pivot sleeves, where the arm holes are extended under the armpits so as not to impede arm movement.

The sleeve openings are elastic and easy to roll up.

Convenient large pockets can be closed by buttons so that the items will not pop out.

The hem can be tightened by the draw cord.

The tail is longer to keep it from riding up under backpacks.

Material

Cotton-like Taslan Nylon

The Taslan nylon fabric is made of “air-textured yarns”, the filament yarns using compressed air.

Unlike the general nylon fabrics, which are often shiny, the Taslan nylon has a matte and soft texture. It is a high-density material made of “air-textured yarns”, achieving both durability and lightweight.

The nylon material is fast-dry and its unique uneven texture keeps you comfortable in various conditions without sticking to your wet skin.
