Fabric Type : Made of a 100% cotton unlined, single-ply, lightweight one-washed high-density woven hickory stripe denim fabric. This fabric has a drier, stiffer feel and crisp texture reminiscent of vintage workwear. This jacket is washed once for a fashionable vintage feel and look. Pre washed, minimal shrinkage. The fabric will also develop a comfortable feeling and continue to get softer and cozier through repeated wear. And the more you wear, the more denim will fade beautifully.

Types of garment closure (Placket type) : Front closure with five metal detachable buttons embossed NAVY logo and anchor. These buttons are removable “ring” (shank) buttons, secured by a metal ring through an eyelet. You can un-clip and detach when the garment required cleaning.

Collar : Shawl-collar. The front side of the collar is a one-panel construction, and the back side of the collar is a two-panel construction with a center seam. The collar is therefore peculiarly wrinkled, but this structure is designed to prevent distortion of the collar as a whole after washing.

Cuff : Unbanded cuffs for full range of motion.

Storage : Two external large patch pockets on the lower front section of the jacket.

Sleeve Style : Set-in sleeves.

Sleeve Length : Long sleeves.

Label : CONTRACT NXs 14575
