About the original
The RefrigiWear Iron-Tuff Jackoat is an industrial insulated coat built for cold-storage and freezer work, made by RefrigiWear, which has produced protective clothing for sub-freezing workplaces since 1954. The Iron-Tuff line is comfort-rated to -50F: a quilted poly shell over RefrigiFill insulation with a taffeta lining, a detachable fur collar, a snap storm flap, and a hip-length cut for warehouse mobility. RefrigiWear operates out of Dahlonega, Georgia, and sells mostly to industrial and logistics crews rather than the retail floor. Supreme's Fall/Winter 2020 version keeps the same construction and the Frostman patch, adding box-logo embroidery on the back. Supreme priced it at $188, a dollar under RefrigiWear's own $189 retail, so the original costs about the same.
About RefrigiWear
RefrigiWear is an American workwear manufacturer founded in 1954 by Myron Breakstone and his brother-in-law Mort in Manhattan, New York. The company developed the first insulated freezer suit for cold-storage and dairy workers, patenting its Iron-Tuff garment system built around quilted poly shells and proprietary RefrigiFill insulation rated for sub-zero environments. Production moved to Long Island in 1962 and now operates out of Dahlonega, Georgia. The brand outfits NATO contractors and food-industry crews working below freezing. Supreme has collaborated with RefrigiWear on the co-branded Insulated Iron-Tuff Jacket and matching vest in three colorways.
