While remaining completely windproof, WINDSTOPPER fabrics are ultra breathable and have the highest moisture vapor transfer rate of any fabric of its kind. A key to comfort is the ability to remove moisture from around your body while stopping the wind. WINDSTOPPER fabric can be used as a stand alone solution, or as an important component in a modern layering system.
The G120 Performance Base Layer Top is designed to take advantage of the moisture vapor breathable, wind proof, WINDSTOPPER® material. The G120 top features a quarter zip zipper, for proper fit and maximum protection, and elastic sleeve closures to minimize body heat loss. Additionally, the G120 incorporates an extended tail to reduce exposure to the lower back through an extended range of motion. This combination of design and technology is sure to make the G120 an essential part of your personal comfort system.

NO COST DESIGN OPTIONS
INSTALLATION OF YOUR EMBLEMS
Soft Badge/LeftChest:
Customer supplied soft badges can be installed on the LEFT chest of your garment during production. Items installed on GORE-TEX® products include the sealing of all stitch lines to ensure the waterproof integrity of your garment. Instructions for submitting your items to us will be sent by email after submission of your order with FORUM-DIRECT./td>
Agency Emblem/LeftSleeve:
Select this option to have us install your agency emblems or rank insignia on the LEFT sleeve of your garment during production. Items installed on GORE-TEX® products include the sealing of all stitch lines to ensure the waterproof integrity of your garment. Standard installation is for top of emblem to rest 1” below the shoulder seam, centered on the shoulder. You will be able to specify if your requirements are different.
Agency Emblem/RightSleeve:
As above, but on the RIGHT sleeve of your garment. If supplied emblems are different from left to right, you will have the opportunity to specify the proper placement and location using the form provided to you through our EASY EMBLEM SUBMISSION process.
BADGE AND NAME TABS
Badge Tab/LeftChest:
By selecting this option, your jacket will have a traditional badge tab installed on the upper left chest with two eyelets spaced at 1 3/8” for easy installation of a metallic badge.
Name Tab/Right Chest:
Your jacket will have a traditional badge tab installed on the upper right chest with two eyelets spaced at 1 3/8” to accommodate attachment of your metallic name badge.
Name Tab Velcro/Right Chest:
We will install a strip of velcro (typically loop) on your jacket, to facilitate your use of removable name tabs. The size of the velcro is typically 1” high by 4” wide, but you may request a custom size, if necessary. This does not include the embroidered name tab, which is listed as a separate option, below.
ADDITIONAL DESIGN OPTIONS
Shoulder Epaulets:
These epaulets are made from the same material as your garment, and can be used as a mic tab, mic wire holder or as holders for rank insignia loops. If you would like us to embroider removable insignia which can be easily attached to the epaulets, please see below.
Fleece-lined lower slash pockets:
This option can be added to the GORE-TEX® Lightweight products and provides additional warmth for your hands.
Delete Weapon Access:
A very common request for recreational-style or off-duty jackets, we can leave off the side zippers on any STANDARD model jacket. The weapon access zippers are a standard feature on the longer, Standard jackets, and facilitate easy access to your weapon belt. If you select this option, your garments will be sewn down the side seam to the lower hem.
CUSTOM EMBROIDERY OPTIONS
We offer a total, "turnkey", solution to our customers by completing any necessary personalization or embroidery as part of our manufacturing process. By stitching names or emblems directly to the garment during production, we are able to ensure that your garments (where applicable) still meet the stringent waterproof tests required by GORE. Please note that WINDSTOPPER® products do not have sealed seams, and are classifed as "Water-Resistant."
Custom digitizing and embroidery of your department emblem is available through FORUM-DIRECT. All work, including digitizing, is done in-house, rather than overseas or in a separate facility. We will work closely with you to make sure you are completely satisfied with the finished product. Digitizing fee for any Department Logo is $45.00. Check the option at the bottom of your order form to add this service to your order. A high quality JPG, BMP, PDF, AI, or PSD of your logo will be required. You will have the option of attaching your file at the time of checkout, or you can upload later via YOUR ACCOUNT.
Logo or Badge/LeftChest Embroidery:
We can embroider your department badge, emblem, or logo on the left chest of your garment during the production process. If you have a DST or other embroidery file, we are happy to use yours - or you may order our professional, in-house digitizing services.
Name/RightChest:
We add your name directly to the garment during production. Name can be stitched in either one or two lines. You will have the opportunity to specify thread color, font style and size. If ordering multiple jackets, please be sure to indicate the size/name combinations in the PERSONALIZATION field of the order. Digitizing of names is included at no additional charge.
Name/Fabric Tape:
As above, but we embroider your name on a "Name Tape" constructed of the same fabric as the garment, with Velcro® backing for attachment. This is a great solution if you would like to be able to re-purpose your garments at a later date. Additional name tapes can be ordered separately by contacting Customer Service. Be sure to also order the Name Tab Velcro/Right Chest option above.
Rank Insignia Loops
Sold as pairs, these are typically standard rank emblems embroidered on self-fabric loops with velcro closure. The loops can easily be added or removed from our Epaulets. Ranks can be sewn in standard or metallic threads. Additional sets of Rank Loops can be ordered by contacting Customer Service.

Vinyl Lettering or Stripes/Sleeves
Other custom reflective lettering or safety stripes can be applied to your specifications. Please contact your customer service or sales representative with your particular need.

Important Notes on Outerwear Sizing
We offer a full range of sizes in all of our product line: from XS to 6X, and Short, Regular and Tall lengths. All products in our Outerwear line are available in BLACK, DARK NAVY BLUE, FRENCH BLUE, BROWN, and OLIVE DRAB.
We do not display LIVE INVENTORY DATA on our site. All of our products are made to order and are always available to our customers. We will never be out of your CONFIGURATION, your COLOR, or your SIZE.
The GORE® Advanced Products for Law Enforcement line of outerwear produced by FORUM has been engineered to allow room in the fit for body armor and/or to layer additional clothing as conditions necessitate. The fit of these patrol shells is, therefore, looser than normal. If you do not require extra room for armor or additional layers, you might want to order one size smaller than you would normally. Please contact FORUM today for additional help in selecting your proper fit.

Got these, pants and top, as a test for my department last winter. They really work well. Keeping the cold out, up to near zero degrees, with just my uniform shirt, plus vest. The only things that were cold were my head and hands and face that the shell doesn't cover. People would say, "Officer you need to wear a jacket". Not really, only if it was raining, or wet snow. Then, just like the advertisement says, if you were inside on an arrest, or doing paperwork, as a supervisor, you were just as comfortable. I have been in law enforcement for more than 35 years, and have worn various kinds of long underwear. This stuff is the best. I come home, take it off, and all the perspiration is on the outside of the shell, away from my body. I would recommend this product to anyone who has to work, going from the extreme cold elements outside, to the other extreme hot elements inside.
