FREEWHEELERS "WINTER COMBAT JACKET" CIVILLIAN MODEL (KHAKI)
Gear up for the winter offensive with Freewheelers' Combat Civilian Jacket!
This jacket is inspired by 1940s civilian Military-inspired winter jackets, recreated by Freewheelers with a modern elegant fit. Returning WWII would wear this jacket as a nod to their previous wartime experience and in addition, it was highly popular with motorcycle riders of the period. Some may recognise this style as the iconic 'tanker' jacket worn by Robert De Niro in Taxi Driver!
Freewheelers have chosen a medium-weight yarn-dyed chino fabric for the shell. This tightly-woven fabric has been slowly woven using vintage machines to give a subtly irregular texture. With time this will age to a soulful look! The inner lining is constructed with long-fibre yarn-dyed Melton wool providing excellent heat retention and keeping you comfy and cosy during the winter season! Olive drab wool knitting fabric has been used for the collar trim, waist and sleeve openings. The slightly elastic fabric is amazing at keeping the wind out and is soft on the skin like some finest cashmere!
Construction-wise Freewheelers have executed some of the cleanest stitch work we have ever seen! Twin chest pockets have been reinforced with bar tack stitching to ensure durability over long-term use. The large-size front zipper and placket flap keep you insulated from the harsh weather and helps keep out the cold wind! The back pleats provide a full range of movement and comfort while keeping an elegant slim silhouette!
If you are looking for a classic winter jacket, inspired by an iconic 20th-century military-inspired design, Freewheelers 'Combat Civilian Jacket could be the perfect one!
