Propper Poly Cotton Twill 27/P Flyers Coverall - Durable Fit

In this review the Propper Poly/Cotton 27/P Flight Suit is presented for crew, maintenance staff and uniformed personnel who need a durable, non-FR coverall with practical storage and a roomy fit. The single biggest reason to consider this coverall is its combination of a lightweight but durable 65/35 poly/cotton twill and a sewn-to-spec military design, which delivers familiar flight-suit features without the expense or requirements of FR fabric.

Key Features

• Sewn to spec: Built to mil-spec YACL-WP PD 99-01 R dimensions so the shape, pocket layout and details match a standard flight suit for predictable performance.
• Durable fabric: The 5.2 oz 65% polyester/35% cotton twill balances strength and light weight while resisting wrinkles and shrinkage for easier care.
• Colorfast finishes: Dyed to match military tones Tan and Freedom Sage and offered in Black and Dark Navy for consistent, low-fade color across uses.
• All the pockets: Six primary zipper pockets plus a left shoulder hook-and-loop pocket and a left inner-thigh knife pocket with cording give plenty of organized storage.
• Zippered leg opening: Leg zippers make donning easier and let the suit be worn untucked over flight boots or work footwear.
• Adjustable fit: The pleated bi-swing back and hook-and-loop waist belt provide freedom of motion and simple size adjustment for a more comfortable wear.

Who It's For

The Propper Poly/Cotton 27/P is best for air crew, ground maintenance personnel, public safety staff and uniformed workers who need the look and utility of a flight suit but do not require flame-resistant protection. It is also a practical option for departments seeking a colorfast, low-maintenance coverall for regular wear.

Customers who need certified FR protection, or who require a very trim or tailored fit, should look elsewhere; this coverall is sized in alpha sizes with a generous, sometimes roomy fit that can read baggy in the legs and long in the torso for some body types.
