We reviewed the Milwaukee M12 Heated Jacket earlier this year and found it to be an exceptionally warm, extremely durable and comfortable jacket that withstood a lot of our outdoor testing. The jacket can be purchased as a kit, or as a separate SKU for those who already have a set of M12 batteries and a charger. While we loved the jacket, we thought it would be nice to see Milwaukee offer it in something other than their trademark Red color. Now there’s the Milwaukee Realtree AP Camo M12 Heated Jacket—and it’s awesome.
Now they do. And it’s camo!
Checking out the new M12 Cordless Realtree AP jacket, Milwaukee has finally appealed to rednecks (like us) everywhere who want to use this on the off-days while hunting or fishing. With the new color, this jacket just got a whole lot more flexible (try walking around or sitting in a tree-stand with a bright red jacket on and attempting to hide from deer…)
Our review still stands, since the only thing Milwaukee has changed is the color, so check our the original review of the Milwaukee M12 Cordless Heated Jacket and then see if this might be something you want to pick up for yourself, your husband, or your Dad. Personally, I think this might be the greatest gift anyone could get – especially if they live up north and are heading into the winter.
The new Milwaukee Realtree AP jacket with M12 Cordless technology is slated to be available in September – just in time for the winter – and, more importantly, the holidays. There may be a slight premium on the Realtree AP Jacket, depending on where you buy it. Milwaukee tells us the suggested retail price for the kit is $199 and the bare jacket can be had for $149.
