USN 1944 N1 Deck Jacket Elephant Skin Asphalt - Pike Brothers
The N1 Deck Jacket is the deck jacket used by the United States Navy, the US Navy, in 1944. This is a replica faithful in every detail to the original.
It was in 1944 that the N1 Deck Jacket appeared. Navy crews based in Europe needed a warm jacket to move safely across the decks and gangways of their ships. The U.S. Department of Defense had a jacket made fairly similar to the one already worn by US Army troops, but in blue. The N1 Deck Jacket features a canvas collar, a wool cloth lining and a zip fastening.
In a second version, the N1 was issued in khaki-coloured cloth, with an alpaca lining and collar. The zip closure is then protected by a flap secured by a row of buttons or metal hooks.
This N1 Deck Jacket, like the original, is made from a tightly woven outer fabric — the "Jungle Cloth" — combined with a woven wool lining. The result is a jacket resistant to water and wind, protecting the wearer from the harshest weather conditions.
Like its legendary original, this 1944 N1 Deck Jacket has the following features:
- outer fabric made of tightly woven double-faced "Jungle Cloth". 100% cotton 520g/m²
- woven wool lining (100% wool)
- vintage Talon zip closure
- authentic label
- knitted cuffs inside the sleeves
