Original US Military issue
Dated 1983
A lovely example of a seldom-seen rugged and hard-wearing jacket. The A-1 is the impermeable counterpart to the iconic A-2 deck jacket and is made for the cold and wet weather that sailors would endure out on the open seas. It features a treated water-resistant nylon shell and is lined with a soft nylon pile. There is a Scovill brand zip front closure, covered with a snap-fastener-secured flap to improve weather resistance. There is a concealed knitted cuff on either wrist, adjustable tabs to tighten the jacket around the waist, and two large hand-warming pockets. An ideal heavy-duty jacket for winter months that will withstand the roughest wear and harshest weather.
Excellent condition with minor signs of wear - All buttons, fittings, and fixtures are present and working. The contract label is present and legible.
