The front is made of Houston's original heavy picket material, which is thick and sturdy. The inside uses a soft and comfortable acrylic boa with excellent heat retention.

The inside of the hem has a drawcord to prevent cold air from coming in from below.
Japan experienced an unprecedented military boom in the 1980s and 1990s, and at that time, flight jackets were mainly popular, and the N-1 deck jacket actually did not attract much attention. However, as time has passed, its popularity has gradually increased, and in recent years it has become the most popular military outerwear item.
Nowadays, it has become an indispensable part of winter military wear.
