Description

K-L MFG Goretex Parka in AOR1. This is an interesting piece, as it looks to have many characteristics of an Arc'teryx Jacket. K-L MFG is a contract sew shop in the US, this allows the item to apply Berry Amendment rules. If Arc'Teryx required something made in the US, K-L would produce them. They share the same build features and small hints like the circular velcro and draw cords found on many Arc'teryx items. Even the black shape in the collar is exactly how Arc'Teryx manufactures their jackets. The jacket is not exactly like anything in the Arc'Teryx inventory currently. A friend told us these were referred to as the Level 8, and were produced from the 2007-2008 time frame. So, while this has no Arc'teryx tags, all the clues in construction and build lends us to call it Arc'teryx.
