JayJays Introduces Clothing

Tuesday, September 3rd, 2024

UK kit manufacturer JayJays has added clothing to their offerings. Designed by Veterans in the firm’s Brecon workshop, the line consists so far of BALATH long sleeve and short sleeve base layers, TEPOR mid layer and ZEPHYR windbreaker jacket.

BALATH

Considered the cornerstone of JayJay’s layering system, BALATH is offered in long and short sleeved variants. The proprietary base layer fabric is a blended knit with 4 way stretch. It has Honeycomb on the outside and a Birds Eye weave on the inner. The Honeycomb draws out the moisture whilst the Birds Eye prevents heat escaping when static and traps heated air inside. Look for flat locked seam construction as well as moisture wicking, antimicrobial properties, superb UV protection and very fast drying.

TEPOR

Offered as a replacement for the old Norwegian Army shirt, the TEPOR is made from a 4-way stretch, waffle knit fabric for comfort and insulation. It features an athletic cut with full length front zipper and thumbhole cuffs. The jacket also has 2 large front pockets with waffle lining to keep hands warm and 2 large inside pockets.

ZEPHYR

Offered in MultiCam, the ZEPHYR is a modern day take on the classic zoot suit. Made from a DWR treated 70D ripstop fabric, it is a great wind layer and can be stored in a mag pouch with some room to spare. This hooded jacket is cut in an anorak style with a large pocket with zippers on either end at the waist. Additionally, the underarms feature mesh for venting during high activity.
