This WWII-era model is based on the L Company 31 coverall jacket made in the late 1930s to early 1940s.
The material is original 10 oz woven nep denim.
This piece has been faithfully reproduced with a DURA-BILT name tag, despite surviving examples being extremely rare.
It features mysterious details such as two asymmetrical pockets in unique positions, the omission of top buttons, and a
peculiar split design on the inside of the cuffs.
The two-prong iron buttons are hand-painted black, with the base material showing through due to age.
It is also featured on this blog.
