The Tielocken
Smart Yet Dependable Prior to the invention of THE TIELOCKEN, a Weatherproof combining the smart Service appearance requisite to the Soldier, with such protective powers as would enable it to resist the heaviest downpour and keenest wind, may be said to have been non-existent. In every case one quality had to be sacrificed for the benefit of the other, and to-day THE TIELOCKEN is the only Service top-coat that successfully unites both these essential characteristics. Its design ensures that, from chin to knees, every vulnerable part of the body is doubly protected. It affords effective security, yet is healthfully self-ventilating—excludes heavy rain, yet is free from rubber or other air-tight fabrics—is airylight, and yet warm in chilly weather. Another advantage is its quick adjustment. A belt holds securely—no buttons to fasten.
