The US Navy Peacoat was adopted in the early 20th century from Britain’s Royal Navy Reefer Jacket. Originally worn by Midshipmen, this classic pea coat was designed for ease of movement while climbing rigging and managing sails. Its double-breasted front displaces buttons to each side, reducing the chance of snagging on ropes during maneuvering. The coat is made of heavy wool, perfect for both style and functionality.
With a rich history, the navy peacoat has become a universal symbol of naval attire across Europe. The name "Pea Coat" is believed to be derived from the Dutch term 'Pijekkat,' meaning a jacket made of coarse wool cloth, and it has evolved significantly over the years.
Invest in this classic navy wool peacoat that combines tradition with modern style - an essential addition to your winter wardrobe, perfect for any occasion.
