Jackets^SIERRA DESIGNS / Panamint Jacket

A Classic Popular in the 70s
The “60/40 Mountain Parka,” a masterpiece of SIERRA DESIGNS, was released in 1968. To inherit its explosive popularity, the “Panamint” was developed in the 1970s, which can be considered a lighter version of the mountain parka.

Back then, it gained explosive popularity mainly among West Coast colleges as a staple item alongside mountain parkas and short parkas.

Sierra Designs’ Iconic ’60/40′
In 1968, Sierra Designs developed a revolutionary material that garnered global attention. Its name comes from the material’s durability and waterproofness achieved by blending cotton with nylon, called “60/40 (Rokuyon Cloth).”

Texture that Improves with Wear
The “60/40” fabric is woven with a golden ratio of 60% cotton for the weft and 40% nylon for the warp. The more you wear it, the more the texture improves. It’s less stiff than 100% cotton and more resistant to friction than 100% nylon. When it absorbs moisture, the cotton yarn expands, closing the weave to enhance waterproof and windproof properties, making it an excellent fabric.

Corduroy Lining as a Design Accent
The corduroy lining adds style accents. It is applied to the stand collar and the inside of the cuffs. The contrast with the outer shell creates a nice accent.

User-Friendly Details
When you button up to the top, it stands neatly as a stand collar. It is equipped with a zip pocket on the left chest and dual pockets on the waist where you can put your hands in from above. As an outdoor brand, it has plenty of pockets. Also, the entire lining has a liner, making it highly windproof.
