1970s | Unbranded (Possibly Woolrich) | Wool Shacket | Buffalo Plaid – XL

Description:

Item:
A heavyweight 1970s wool shacket in classic red and black buffalo plaid. Traditional workwear cut with button front, chest pockets and handwarmer pockets, designed to be worn as a true outer layer rather than a lightweight shirt. Thick wool construction with excellent structure, weight and warmth, sitting perfectly between jacket and flannel.

Era:
1970s

Brand:
Unbranded (possibly Woolrich)

Condition:
Very good vintage condition. The wool remains thick, warm and structurally strong with rich colour throughout. Light, even wear consistent with age. No structural issues, thinning or repairs noted. Honest use that adds character and is exactly what people look for in proper American workwear pieces.

Provenance Note:
This piece shows all the construction and styling hallmarks associated with classic American wool shackets from brands like Woolrich, even though the label is missing. These garments were designed as functional outdoor layers, worn by workers, hunters and outdoorsmen who valued warmth and durability above all else. Whether branded or not, the quality of wool, cut and build places this firmly within the golden era of American workwear production, offering timeless style, serious practicality and authenticity that modern garments simply cannot replicate.

Condition Notes:

Please be aware. All our true vintage items come with a story, and we cannot guarantee any item will be totally free of marks / damage but anything we think of note will be mentioned. Furthermore, a lot of vintage items gain character because of wear and tear. Buying a true vintage item is not the same as buying new and is not to be confused with second-hand clothing.

We have also tried to accurately depict each garment using a photography setup with over 90% true to life accuracy. 

We do not take photos of inside the garment.
