Originally these comfortable vests were only issued to military personnel for use in cooler weather while performing articulate tasks. But soon became popular with others in the war effort and became available in the PX and elsewhere. War correspondents in particular liked their “arms free” attribute for typing while on the move. Ours are particularly comfortable being made with a soft blend of 85% Wool and 15% Acrylic and can be hand-washed and line dried with no shrink.
