First issued to U.S Navy sailors in the early 1960s, the A2 deck jacket was the natural successor to the iconic N1 design, utilising lighter-weight but equally functional materials.  Its design incorporated the N1’s tried and tested features such as a heavy-duty zipper closure and hidden ribbed cuffs - but with a modified collar, cinched hems and an added breast pocket for versatility.   This Iron Heart take on a classic jacket remains very true to the original design, constructed with a hard wearing, wind-resistant whipcord outer shell and a soft 100% wool lined interior.  The lining extends all the way down the sleeves for maximum warmth and comfort during the colder months, whilst still ensuring a smooth feel when putting on and taking off the jacket.
