Early versions featured cuffed sleeves and pleated chest pockets, but later patterns shifted to larger, gusseted pockets and straight sleeves for easier movement. By the third pattern, details like a collar button for attaching a hood and an internal gas flap were added to improve protection, marking it as Special.
