1970s | Unbranded | Lined CPO Wool Shirt | Blue / Tan Check – L

Description:

Item:
Heavyweight lined CPO style wool shirt with classic naval-inspired workwear design. Features twin chest pockets, button front and a substantial cut that allows it to be worn either as a shirt or a light outer layer. The internal lining adds warmth and structure without pushing it into jacket territory.

Era:
1970s.

Brand:
Unbranded.

Condition:
Good vintage condition. Light signs of wear consistent with age, with no structural issues. The wool remains thick and robust and the lining is clean and intact. Honest use that adds character and is exactly why pieces like this carry so much presence.

Provenance Note:
The CPO shirt is one of the great crossover pieces between military heritage and civilian workwear. Originally designed for naval use, it became a staple of 1960s–70s American outdoor and labour clothing. This example captures that perfectly, rugged, functional and effortlessly wearable. A proper vintage shirt that works as both layering piece and statement outer overshirt.
