COOPH has added a new garment to its catalogue of specialist photography gear – the Field Jacket. Made from EtaProof, a 100% cotton fabric from Swiss weaving mill Stotz, the COOPH Field Jacket holds a variety of inner and outer pockets to stash photographic accessories and even has a quick access pocket to store a smartphone. Ulrich Grill, founder of COOPH and a professional photographer himself, said: “We are pretty stoked to add this all-year jacket to our growing range of photography apparel. The Field Jacket is hardwearing and feature-packed, but it doesn’t look like your typical photographer’s vest. That was planned. We partnered with the finest mill in Europe to help realize our idea – and I’m eager to see people wearing the jacket.” The COOPH Field Jacket is available for €398.

New In Store - The Feature Packed Field Jacket

Cooperative of Photography presents the ultimate all-year jacket to help photographers shoot in style

No matter what, where or when a photographer is shooting, a little support can go a long way. COOPH is again helping passionate photographers get the shot by adding another garment to its catalog of specialist photography gear – the Field Jacket. COOPH’s new addition is the ultimate all-year, multi purpose assistant – made from EtaProof®, a 100% cotton fabric from Swiss weaving mill Stotz.

The fabric was originally used to create overalls for British Hurricane pilots during the Second World War. The waterproof material protected them from early hypothermia after plunging into the ice-cold Atlantic Ocean, and gave pilots a fair chance of survival. The protective gear was also comfortable to wear, both in the cockpit and during the long hours of waiting for assignments.

It’s the perfect COOPH fabric – cut, hand-crafted and sewn in Poland – making it a truly European product. With its special construction, the Field Jacket is also designed to support freedom of movement and keep photographers perfectly comfortable when shooting in any position. The jacket holds a variety of inner and outer pockets to stash photographic accessories and even has a quick access pocket to store a smartphone. While the jacket is a light and breathable photo shoot companion, its appeal doesn’t end there. The Field Jacket also has a stylish, military-inspired design that makes it just as wearable on the town as it is chasing shots in the wild.

Ulrich Grill, founder of COOPH and a professional photographer himself, said: “We are pretty stoked to add this all-year jacket to our growing range of photography apparel. The Field Jacket is hardwearing and feature-packed, but it doesn’t look like your typical photographer’s vest. That was planned. We partnered with the finest mill in Europe to help realize our idea – and I’m eager to see people wearing the jacket.”
