ORIGOPRO TST thermal jacket, winter woodland M05

High-Performance insulation: Climashield Apex™

The jacket’s superior warmth is powered by Climashield Apex™ continuous filament insulation, the choice of elite military units worldwide.

• Zero Cold Spots: Our innovative construction suspends the insulation between two windproof layers without through-stitching. This eliminates needle-hole “cold bridges” common in standard quilted jackets.

• Moisture Reliability: Unlike down, Climashield Apex™ retains 90% of its warmth even when wet and dries rapidly in field conditions.

• Loft Retention: The diagonal fiber structure maintains its shape and insulating “loft” even after repeated compression in rucksacks.

Professional Materials & NIR Protection

• Fabric: 98% Polyamide, 2% Carbon Fiber. The carbon-reinforced Ripstop is anti-static and exceptionally durable.

• M05 Camouflage & NIR Compliance: The M05 pattern and all fabric components are fully NIR-compliant (Near-Infrared), matching the official Finnish Defence Forces (FDF) specifications to ensure low visibility against night vision devices.

• Caldari Linings: The air-tight, calendered polyamide lining prevents body heat from escaping while maintaining breathability.

• Reinforcements: Critical wear zones are reinforced with genuine Cordura® for maximum service life.

Tactical Features for Field Use

• Dual-Insulated Hood: Since up to 70% of body heat can be lost through the head, we have doubled the insulation in the adjustable hood for maximum protection.

• Reverse-Opening Pockets: Pocket entries open backwards to prevent freezing wind from entering and to keep gear secure.

• Thermal Management: Integrated underarm ventilation zippers allow for rapid heat release during high-intensity movement.

What makes the M05 camouflage pattern effective? The M05 pattern was developed by the Finnish Defence Forces (FDF) based on thousands of photographs of Finnish forests. It is specifically optimized to blend into the deep shadows and color palettes of Northern coniferous forests.

Is the Origopro TST thermal jacket NIR-compliant? Yes. The jacket and all its components (including M05 patterns) meet the official NIR (Near-Infrared) reflection standards. This ensures that the wearer remains concealed from night vision devices (NVDs) by reflecting light at the same level as the surrounding environment.

How does Climashield Apex™ compare to down insulation? While down is light, it loses its insulating properties when damp. Climashield Apex™ is a continuous filament synthetic insulation that remains effective even when soaking wet, dries quickly, and maintains its “loft” (thickness) much longer under heavy use and compression.

Is this jacket suitable for civilian use like hunting or hiking? Absolutely. While built to military specifications (Mil-Spec), its durability, anti-static carbon-reinforced shell, and extreme warmth make it an ideal choice for hunters, bushcraft enthusiasts, and anyone working in Arctic or sub-zero conditions.

What is the difference between the Origopro TST thermal jacket and the Origo Hunter model? Both jackets utilize the high-performance Climashield Apex™ insulation and M05 patterns, but they are optimized for different tasks:

• Shell Fabric: The TST model features a carbon-reinforced Ripstop fabric that is anti-static and ultra-lightweight. The Hunter model uses a more traditional, high-durability 70% PES / 30% CO blend (Finnish military snow suit specification), ideal for hunting and heavy outdoor use.

• Functional Features: The Hunter jacket is optimized for hunters with an integrated radio pocket and enlarged storage for gloves. The TST model is designed for tactical operations and includes underarm ventilation zippers for active temperature regulation, which the Hunter model does not have.

• Best Use: Choose the TST thermal jacket for high-performance tactical use and maximum weight-to-warmth ratio. Choose the Origo Hunter for rugged durability in hunting, bushcraft, and traditional cold-weather field use.
