—01. Made in Japan.

Words

The N-3 Utility Shirt originally completed the uniform of USN troops deployed in tropical theatres in the 1940s. Made from a lightweight woven fabric, the olive colour is an ideal shade, while the shirt details themselves are interesting, yet unassuming.

There aren't a lot of olive sweatshirts on the market, especially if you want one without stencils or branding, but this Real McCoy's option has a nice unadorned military feel, and would definitely work well with some khaki chinos.
