Engineered for the fight that follows

Every seam on the PBLJ is built using double-needle lockstitching, the same approach used in standard-issue military liners to prevent seam failure and fabric distortion under stress. High-wear points—like pocket corners, sleeve cuffs, and belt loops—are bar-tack reinforced for extra hold without added bulk. The outer shell uses a lightweight, abrasion-resistant nylon similar to the classic poncho liner, balancing durability and flexibility. Inside, the quilted polyester insulation is stitched in a continuous wave pattern to prevent shifting or clumping over time. All raw edges are bias-bound to reduce fray and protect the interior face from wear. Even the thread is heat-resistant bonded nylon—selected to last longer than the fabric itself. It’s built with the same logic as issued gear: no-frills, no shortcuts, just function that holds up when comfort isn’t optional.
