Yarmouth Oilskins Maritime Overshirt : Navy
The Maritime Overshirt uses a heavy 300gsm 100% cotton moleskin in deep navy, dyed and finished in the U.K.
The styling references the heavy sailor’s shirts that were historically worn layered for warmth as protection from the bracing North Sea winds. It has two generous buttoned chest pockets , and two vertical side hip pockets. The collar is a neat rounded shape. Our glossy, black corozo buttons contrast beautifully on the rich moleskin. There are four stitched under arm eyelets for ventilation.
Yarmouth Oilskins Mechanics Jacket : Navy
Taking inspiration from the Yarmouth Oilskins 1905 catalogue , the Mechanics Jacket was designed to be hard wearing and durable. It has a quirky high curved chest pocket, which is mirrored on the other side as an inside pocket, profile stitched to the front. Again with french seams and herring bone tape internals it’s designed to last a lifetime. The Mechanics jacket is cut from a slightly heavier cotton twill and is made in a brighter navy. Archives referr to this colour as Bluette. Made in Great Yarmouth, Great Britain
