But it was the British and the heyday of the Royal Navy which really made the peacoat synonymous with the sea. The US Navy, in the very late 1800s would take inspiration from the British reefer jacket and create their own style peacoat style which,  though updated though various iterations, only ceased to be issued in 2020.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnd this is probably the most beautiful, and certainly the most sought after of them all, the 1910 peacoat, also know as the WW1 peacoat. Distinct from its later siblings with four pockets (the two waist pockets would be removed in the 1930s), longer length, 10 buttons (it would later change to 8), and beautiful 13 star \u0026amp; anchor buttons. This style would be issued from around 1910 through until the 30s when it would be replaced by the a more simple garment. This is a super early example likely made in the 1910s \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003ewith rounded pockets and light wool lining.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExcellent mint condition. Some light wear to the collar and one hole on the lining. A few very light areas of mothing. The buttons have been re-stitched at some point very poorly, through the pockets etc and there is one button missing, though I have a spare button available, I can restitch if the new owner would like. One button hole has split slightly. Overall an excellent example.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSize\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo size tag, but equivalent measurement of a 42 \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePit to pit 22\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShoulder to shoulder 19\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShoulder to cuff 25\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCollar to hem 33\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Major's Tailor","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47584646496428,"sku":null,"price":1750.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0556\/4445\/5084\/files\/ww1-peacoat-1.jpg?v=1791411166","url":"https:\/\/themajorstailor.com\/products\/us-navy-pre-ww1-1910-peacoat-mint-condition","provider":"The Major's Tailor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
