MUSKEGON, MI (January 8, 2025) – The original ghillie suit was worn by Scottish gamekeepers to blend into their environment. Scottish and British military then adopted its use for sniper concealment in World Wars I and II. Today, the leafy outerwear is used by everyone from hunters to birders and paintballers worldwide.
Now, Blocker Outdoors has taken the foliage-themed camouflage to the turkey hunting woods with the new Finisher Leafy Jacket.
“This is our third year since our launch of the Finisher, and series has been very successful,” said Blocker Outdoors Marketing Director, Steve Allie. “So, we’re constantly looking to expand the series. And the new Finisher Leafy Jacket was born from customer requests.”
The dynamic design breaks up the human silhouette even more than traditional camouflage material, sporting 3D leaves that move like the real thing, flickering with the wind.
Its fit is exceptional as well. “You can put it right over your regular hunting apparel,” said Allie. Moreover, the Finisher Leafy Jacket is considered medium-weight with a poly backing for some thermal integrity yet is able to breathe. Most ghillie tops are mesh-only, which can be uncomfortable and offer no warmth. The poly backing makes the Finisher Leafy Jacket more comfortable to wear.
Beyond its supreme camouflaging capabilities, the Finisher Leafy Jacket also offers Blocker stylings and features. For starters, the three-panel hood fits well and doesn’t slide around while turning your head. Elastic cuffs afford a secure fit, while an adjustable waist lets you customize fit at the midsection. Two front pockets keep essentials at a moment’s notice.
Take a tip from real world snipers…be the tree.
