The benefits of military inspired garments go far beyond the clean lines and sturdy craftsmanship. For one, pieces used by military branches are designed with a utilitarian mindset; that mixed with a creative approach yields impressive results. From Montgomery’s original duffle coat to the cargo pocket, all these pieces have their roots in military heritage. And while these options may look different than their standard-issue military brethren, they all are similar in their durability and no-frills approach. While in theory you could wear all of this at once, try breaking up the pieces to reap the benefits all season long.
