The British Royal Navy windproof smock was originally designed for crew members working out on aircraft carrier decks, where wind was a constant companion.
Most people recognize the later version with the front flap used to secure communication cables, a design that’s become one of the most well-known British military garments. But this piece goes deeper, faithfully recreating the ultra-rare first model. Produced only briefly and in very limited numbers in 1958, it’s an original so obscure that even seasoned collectors barely know it exists.
