February 25, 2025

Durable wax ripstop fabric, design tested, and 100% Sourced & Made in the USA

WHITEFISH, Mont. /OUTDOOR SPORTSWIRE/ – FORLOH (https://forloh.com), the premium USA-made technical outdoor brand, introduces the BTM Pro Jacket (Brush to Mountain), a versatile garment engineered to meet the toughest demands of the great outdoors.

Crafted to endure harsh terrain, the BTM Pro Jacket is entirely sourced and made in the USA combining a durable, military proven nylon/cotton ripstop with an abrasion resistant paraffin wax emulsion treatment to create true ‘Brush To Mountain’ (BTM) protection. Using the same design philosophy of the BTM Pro Pant, the wax ripstop panels are strategically placed in high-abrasion areas for enhanced protection in varying environments. Weatherproofing Wax can be reapplied in the field offering up to a 50% improvement in abrasion, thorn and water resistance.

“At FORLOH, our commitment to 100% American-made isn’t just a slogan—it’s the bedrock of everything we do,” says Andy Techmanski, CEO of FORLOH. “From idea inception to fabric creation, engineering, sourcing, cut-and-sew, and final delivery—happens entirely in the United States. By keeping our entire process domestic, we ensure superior craftsmanship, ethical production, and support over 3,500 American jobs across 60 companies. Choosing FORLOH means investing in America.”

The BTM Pro Jacket is designed for rugged performance and comfort. It features an adjustable hood and hem, plus pre-shaped sleeves for an enhanced fit. Low-profile snaps on the cuffs provide easy adjustment. A YKK AquaGuard front zipper is protected by a buttoned storm flap at the chin, chest, and hem. Ample storage is provided by two vertical chest pockets, two side pockets, and two internal pockets large enough for gloves or hats—all exterior pockets feature zippers with oversized pulls for easy use with gloves.

Available in solid and camo prints. MSRP $279
