BRAND US Navy.

DESCRIPTION
The most iconic of the USN jackets in a good size!

The aircraft carrier deck crew wore N-1 deck jackets during World War II and the Korean War. The thick cotton shell and alpaca or wool lining gave the deck crew the needed warmth and protection from the elements during extreme cold weather conditions. US Navy produced the initial series in Navy blue to symbolize the Navy before changing to Khaki.

Details include:
- USN chest stencil.
- Alpaca lining.
- Wool knitted cuffs.
- Underarms ventilation eyelets.
- Golden Talon zipper.
- Hanging loop.
- Waist string.
- Made in USA.

YEAR WW2 Era.

FABRIC Jungle cloth and alpaca lining.

CONDITION Clean, no funky smell, ready to be worn. Lower front button is missing. Alpaca in great condition and still super soft. Contract label present but not readable. Talon zipper still has the little fabric loop. Zipper is working but it's partially ripped off at the base. Amazing patina and killer shoulders fade. Wool cuffs in great shape. Eyelets all present. Overall in stunning and solid condition (especially if you consider that this jacket have probably seen some action during the WW2).
