Presenting UES's reinterpretation of the timeless N-1 deck jacket—a recognized classic that transcends eras. Originally introduced in 1943 as the U.S. Navy's preferred cold-weather coat, the N1 has evolved into a revered piece among repurposed military attire. Developed to meet the rigorous demands of sailors facing harsh sea conditions, the N1 served actively until the 1960s, earning the distinction of being the longest-serving jacket in U.S. Navy history. It played a crucial role in safeguarding sailors from biting winds and freezing temperatures.
In the contemporary fashion landscape, select Japan-based brands are reproducing the N-1, and our preferred choice is the Tricotine version by UES. Crafted from 15.5oz tricotine fabric, woven with tightly twisted indigo rope-dyed yarns in a double twill, this jacket boasts a robust and durable shell.
Using a fine-count yarn and an old power loom, UES achieves a solid thickness and high-density weave, rendering the tricotine shell windproof and waterproof. The acrylic and cotton lining contributes to a soft, luxurious feel. Adding an authentic touch, the brass Waldes zipper imparts a hint of ruggedness.
The jackets from UES tend to run a bit small compared to American sizing. We usually suggest going one size up from your regular American size. If you usually wear a size M in American brands, you'll find a good fit with this shirt in size 3 (L). However, as always, we recommend consulting our size chart for the perfect fit.
UES is a small Japanese label founded by Chuji Matsumoto in 1994. UES comes from the English word "Waste", which means that Matsumoto-San wants you to make full use of each garment for as long as possible before discarding it. It is a small judgement of the concept of disposable wear that is so commonplace today in the world of fashion and from which Matsumoto-San disassociates himself completely.
