Made in France This is a special item. This is a "Linen Sailor Work Smock" that was worn as deck work clothing by the French Navy in 1937. This particular piece is highly sought after in the French military genre. The reasons for its popularity are its versatility, which blends well with modern fashion, and the unique texture of the linen fabric, which is said to be impossible to replicate. With a simple and minimalist design featuring a modest, small shawl collar and horn button closure, the French linen used moves and shimmers with every movement, creating a one-of-a-kind texture and feel. The sailor stripes, usually found on the sleeve cuffs, appear to have bled due to washing, resulting in an indigo color throughout. This eliminates the typical sailor costume feel, making it easier to wear. This kind of accidental effect is part of the charm of vintage clothing. Furthermore, the stencil on the collar, which evokes a sense of history, indicates the issue date and size, and the ink that has bled through to the back creates a special atmosphere. Regarding the size, this is a very rare big-size box silhouette with a body width of 60cm, so it is recommended to wear it as an outer layer over T-shirts, shirts, sweatshirts, hoodies, or knitwear. *The wearing images are for reference only, and this particular item has a wider shoulder width and body width, and a shorter length than the items in the images, resulting in a more modern fit that suits Japanese people. As you can see from the last image, this item is currently being sold for ¥148,000 at a certain European vintage shop due to its top-class rarity in French military items, and its price has been rising year by year. In my subjective opinion, there are no noticeable scratches or stains, and I think it is in good condition considering it is approximately 100 years old. However, please refrain from purchasing if you are not accustomed to vintage clothing or are overly sensitive. Please also check my profile before considering a purchase.
