Nimitz Leather Pea coat brown

Pea coat “Nimitz” - what is unique?

“The sea - like life itself - is a strict teacher. The best way to get along with both is to learn everything you can, and then do everything in your power, and not worry - especially about what you cannot change.” From childhood, these words were heard by the future fleet admiral, commander of the Pacific US Navy during World War II, Chester Nimitz. He gave the name to the largest aircraft carrier.

The Airborne Apparel trademark has released a series of leather pea coats dedicated to this American hero.

Distinctive features of a pea-jacket:

Pea jacket at the height of fashion

The leather pea coat became popular in the 1940s during the war. The military and people of entirely peaceful professions had this as a piece of their wardrobe. This jacket gained even more popularity after the release of numerous films in which the characters sported pea jackets. It became a symbol of heroism, resilience and loyal service to the homeland. Now you can become the owner of this handy jacket.
