- Hanging loop
- Removable neck flap
- The entire coverall can be packed into the hood

This coverall is made in Slovakia by Koutny and comes in three sizes.
I’m told NATO (including US) troops have made private purchases of the coverall while on deployment to Finland after seeing this the locals do it.
