Classic quilted construction with ribbed collar, cuffs and hem, finished in a deep black satin.

Era:
1980s

Brand:
Unbranded / Souvenir Reproduction

Condition:
Very good vintage condition. Strong colour, clean embroidery and intact quilting throughout. Light creasing to the satin consistent with age and storage. No structural issues. A well-preserved example with real visual impact.

Provenance Note:
These reproduction souvenir jackets were produced in the 1980s to echo the iconic post-war US Navy and Air Force tour jackets that had become highly collectible. They carry the same spirit, bold embroidery, storytelling graphics and theatrical presence, while remaining completely wearable pieces in their own right. Jackets like this bridge military heritage and fashion history, offering a statement garment that feels both authentic and unmistakably vintage without being costume.

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.
