BUZZ RICKSON'S PEA-COAT “NAVAL CLOTHING FACTORY”

The original model of the commonly known “pea coat” is said to have existed in the 18th century. The name originated from the Dutch word “piijekker,” in which “pii” referred to coarse woolen item and “jekker” referred to jacket. Pea coat style coats were worn by a number of militaries in European countries. This pea coat is from the 1910s that the U.S. Navy issued to petty officers. Pea coats of the 1910s are characterized by the use of highdensity, thick melton wool material and anchor buttons engraved with 13 stars of the seal of the United States. The 13 stars represent the 13 colonies that existed when the United States declared independence in 1777. While it is not known exactly when the U.S. Navy adopted the pea coat, the overcoat was already port of the petty officer dress code during World War I. A large collar was designed so that officers working on the sea can cover their faces with the collar and fully protect their faces from strong winds. In addition, slittype pockets were attached vertically to serve as hand warmer pockets to warm up cold hands.From the 1930s and onwards, as a result of reviewing productivity and cost, lighter fabrics were utilized, and the 13-star buttons were eliminated. サイズ Size 肩幅 Shoulder Width 身幅 Body Width 着丈 Body Length 袖丈 Sleeve Length 36(S) 46.0cm前後 50.0cm前後 75.0cm前後 62.0cm前後 38(M) 47.0cm前後 52.0cm前後 77.0cm前後 64.0cm前後 40(L) 50.0cm前後 55.0cm前後 80.0cm前後 65.5cm前後 42(XL) 51.0cm前後 57.0cm前後 82.0cm前後 67.0cm前後 44(XXL) 54.0cm前後 60.0cm前後 84.5cm前後 68.0cm前後 46(XXXL) 55.0cm前後 62.0cm前後 87.0cm前後 69.0cm前後
