A little piece of American military history, given a whole new life!
Made entirely from an original vintage olive-green U.S. military wool blanket, estimated to date to the 1960s. Originally made for warmth, durability, and years of use, this beautifully aged wool has that wonderful substantial weight and texture that makes these old military blankets so special. Now transformed into a one-of-a-kind coat meant to last another lifetime!
What makes this piece especially wonderful is the original outlined U.S. military insignia, carefully preserved and prominently displayed across the lower back of the coat. The bold, double-lined lettering is a beautiful reminder of the blanket's original purpose and the decades of history woven into its fibers. The muted olive color and naturally aged texture give this piece so much character.
Designed with an oversized collar, hand-cut neck ties, roomy patch pockets, exposed stitching, and a relaxed, elongated silhouette. The original military markings, beautifully worn wool, and thoughtful construction make this a truly special wearable heirloom.
A blanket with a past, a coat with a second life!
