Product information
Pike Brothers 1942 C2 Vest Oliv Drab
In the 1940s, the multilayer, also known as the onion principle, became more and more popular with the Air Force. The thick sheepskin jackets were replaced by lighter cotton jackets, under which you could wear different, warm layers if necessary. This made you more agile and able to react flexibly to temperature fluctuations. The C-2 Vest is a warm undergarment that is highly suitable for everyday use even without a jacket. All authentic details have been meticulously reproduced and give the vest a subtle reference to its origin.
