Reproduction of 1910s WWI-era U.S. Army fabric. 3/1 left twill with cotton & natural linen.

During World War II, many raw materials to make textiles could not be sourced; those that could be were rationed and directed towards the war effort. By 1941 the British Board of Trade required that a CC41, which stood for Controlled Commodity 41, was sewn into all textiles and utility clothing – it ran until 1951. Takahashi came across a Burberry trench coat through a vintage dealer in London, which had a CC41 label – amazed at how it was made to only include useful design motifs. He found beauty in the functionality. The Burberry trench inspired the CC41 jacket that later inspired this.
The jacket which features two storm pockets on the front and 2 aide pockets on the bottom + upper hand pocket. Made to be very functional and hot and not needed to take off, can withstand alot of wear and is constructed to really get beat up.

If you buy this the right way to use it is really wear it alot.
