Ralph Lauren Olive Green Cotton Jungle Fieldjacket

Discover the Ralph Lauren Olive Green Cotton Jungle Field Jacket. The micro check visible on close inspection is a ripstop weave: reinforcement threads woven through the base cotton at regular intervals of around five to eight millimetres, forming the characteristic grid that becomes apparent only when examined directly. The reinforcement threads are thicker than the base weave and function as tear barriers, stopping any damage from propagating across the cloth. Ripstop was developed during the Second World War as a lightweight but tear-resistant fabric for parachutes, and the US military adopted it for jungle field uniforms in the 1960s, most notably in the Vietnam-era Tropical Combat Jacket where the combination of lightweight cotton and ripstop construction proved more practical than heavier alternatives in heat and humidity. The micro check is not a decorative detail. It is functional textile engineering that became a defining visual signature of American military clothing.

Polo Ralph Lauren has drawn from US military workwear throughout his career, and this jacket sits directly in that lineage. Olive green cotton in a ripstop construction, lightweight but with enough body to drape correctly on the shoulder. Curved accordion bellows pockets with flaps sit on both chest panels, expandable for carrying volume in the field. Two straight pockets fall at the hips. The shirt collar, button closure, and unlined construction complete a jacket that is a direct and considered translation of one of the most enduring utility garments in twentieth-century American dress.
