Hello Loungers - I'm cleaning out the closet of seldom used or worn jackets. This jacket is a Pike Brothers 1943 N-1 Deck Jacket XL.
This is a very well made and heavy duty version of the jacket as anyone who has handled one can attest. Here is the description from Pike Brothers website.
The general construction of the jacket combines a thick outer layer of "Jungle Cloth" with a wool lining. So the wearer stays warm and comfortable even under harshest weather conditions.
Our N-1 Deck Jacket features all characteristics as the legendary originals:
- outer layer of densely woven double faced jungle cloth 360g/sqm(100% cotton)
- woven wool lining 500g/sqm (100% Wool)
- vintage 1940s bell shaped Talon zipper
- authentic Spec. Label
- proper 1940s round knit wind cuffs
- stand up collar
- Made in Turkey"
I have worn this jacket very little since I bought it so it is in excellent condition with no tears or rips. As some may agree the sleeves tend to run a little long and are overly wide at the end. I had this jacket's sleeves professionally tapered to the cuff and shortened to have a more natural feel and look. Non -smoking home.
