Historical Insights:
The classic peacoat has a storied history, dating back to the early 1800s. It was initially worn by sailors in the European navies, with the term "pea" deriving from the Dutch word "pije," referring to a type of coarse woolen fabric. Its design, featuring a double-breasted front, large lapels, and sturdy buttons, was intended to provide sailors with maximum protection against the elements while allowing for ease of movement.
Over the decades, the peacoat transitioned from naval uniform to a fashion staple, beloved for its versatility, warmth, and timeless style. Our Classic Peacoat pays homage to this rich legacy, combining historical elements with modern craftsmanship to create a coat that is both functional and stylish.
Embrace the heritage and enduring appeal of the Classic Peacoat, a must-have addition to any winter wardrobe.
