[BUZZ RICKSON'S "BR15340" N-1 NAVY “NAVY DEPARTMENT” DEMOTEX-ED]
The N-1 deck jacket, paired with trousers made of the same material, was adopted by U.S. Navy ship crews from World War II through the Korean War.
Like other deck jackets, the outer material is cotton grosgrain, commonly known as jungle cloth, while the lining is made of alpaca mohair and wool pile, which provides excellent wind resistance and warmth.
It also features attention to detail, such as a military-spec brass Talon zipper and military-spec urea buttons.
The navy blue N-1 model was adopted in 1944, and a khaki model was issued the following year in 1945.
Changes not only included the color, but also the omission of the alpaca mohair sewn inside the cuffs, simplified loops on the underarm lining and hem cord, larger eyelets on the hem cord, and the positioning of the underarm eyelets, making for notable differences.
Worn for work on the deck of a ship constantly exposed to sea breezes, the N-1 deck jacket required warmth.
The outer material is a high-density woven jungle cloth that is windproof, waterproof, and warm, making it the perfect material for protecting you from the extreme cold.
The lining is made of thick alpaca wool pile, which boasts exceptional heat retention.
With excellent cold-weather protection, this is a classic American casual item that also works well as outerwear in the middle of winter.
