  • The Type G-1 jacket was introduced by the U.S. Navy as early as the 1930s and standardized by the Navy in 1940 as the M-422A.It was first designated the G1 in 1947.

    Due to the nature of the natural raw materials we use and the traditional method of manufacture we employ it is not always possible to meet exact measurement requirements. The products we build are not designed to be tailored like a suit, they will after a "break in" period soften and mold to the shape of your own body, our jackets are built to be worn. We do not use a production line system or have racks of jackets ready to ship, each and every jacket is made to order, individually handcrafted here in Scotland by one of our specialists.

    Bespoke patterns can be created if preferred, please contact us direct with specifications for a full quote.
