Then knights in the cold season wore sewn shirts under armor and chain mail, consisting of several layers of fabric, thereby escaping frostbite, and in hot countries from overheating.
An ordinary quilted jacket is an upper quilted garment known to all residents of Russia, and to the peoples of many countries that were previously part of the USSR or the Russian Empire. The USSR authorities saw in the quilted jacket the ideal clothes that are functional both for work and for war. In 1932, padded jackets actually become uniforms for the builders of the White Sea Canal.
In the 1930s, padded jackets began to move through the cinema. For example, in the cult film "Chapaev", Anka and Petka flaunt in quilted jackets, thereby demonstrating the "versatility" of these clothes.
The Great Patriotic War turned the jacket into a real cult, making it the clothes of the winners. The padded jacket proved itself especially well during the Second World War, when the Soviet troops needed comfortable, and most importantly, warming clothes in winter, allowing them to move quickly and saving them from the fierce Russian frosts. Of course, the state also had to provide clothing for its soldiers. Sweatshirts in this case turned out to be the simplest, fastest and warming solution. Today, in its original form, the sweatshirt is no longer to be found.
