    Questions About the United States Navy Peacoat

    Looks to be a coveted 1949. Looks to be in nice shape and a reasonable price. Edit - I didn't look close enough. I missed the no contract number of the 1949.

    Questions About the United States Navy Peacoat

    Don't get me wrong. I'll still throw on a pair of sneakers with my peacoat, but boots just polish the look. And with a pair of Chukkas, or the Thursdays, you can still cuff your Salvedge. ;)

    Also, just a suggestion. Lose the sneakers and get some boots. Any, really. Chukka, Chelsea, Thursday Captains

    Questions About the United States Navy Peacoat

    My 1973 is a Melton coat from the Pembroke Coat Company. It's closer in consistency to the Kersey jackets of the day than it is to my 1990 Melton coat.

    Questions About the United States Navy Peacoat

    I got my first peacoat in high school. No longer have that particular coat nor the car. I don't know what happened to that coat, but I replaced it with the 1973 coat I still have. Having recently dropped sixty pounds I was able to fit into it again. Unfortunately, my son has been wearing it in...

    That it's actually DC and not nr. The stamp was just too big for the label so parts of the D and the C extend into the liner.

    Questions About the United States Navy Peacoat

    Sorry to double post, but my WWII coat just arrived and I wanted to show it off. For an ~80 year old coat, it is in absolutely fantastic condition. There's one little tear along the top of the left sleeve liner. Not even a tear. Just the stitching pulled out about two inches. It will be nothing...

    I know that the red, DC, stamped on the names stenciled on the coats means, discarded. The WWII coat I just bought also has, nr, on the tag. Anyone know what that means?

    Questions About the United States Navy Peacoat

    Okay, now I can't stop myself. This 1966 was too good a deal to pass up. Now I'll have 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s, and 90s coats. Guess I have a few more decades to go. :p

    Questions About the United States Navy Peacoat

    Hello everyone. I currently own a 1973 Midnight Blue Pembroke Melton coat and a 1990 Sterlingwear. I just purchased what I think is a 1950 and was hoping someone could help me verify that. I don't have the coat yet bet I grabbed a screenshot of the label. Here it is. The first two sets of digits...
