Beyond the Trend: Peacoats

START

Like combat boots and army caps, peacoats are another fashion favorite that comes from a military background. First worn by Navy men, the woolen coat was designed to keep sailors warm while working on the top decks. Peacoats (also known as pea jackets) are distinct in their thigh-level length and double breasted buttons. In the 1950s and ’60s, peacoats began to appear in colder regions as a part of the wider winter wardrobe. Today, the jacket is a chic fall and winter staple that has been adapted year after year since its introduction to civilian style. For some fall fashion inspiration, continue on to see some of the best peacoats throughout history.
