UTILITARIAN ‘PIJJEKKER' HAS TRULY STOOD THE TEST OF TIME…

The high Storm Collar helps to protect the wearer from the elements and introduces a traditional fastening that pulls the collar together around the neck for further insulation. The fastening can be removed or repositioned around the back when not in use. Due to the heavy weight of 22oz Melton wool, the collar sits proudly when worn up and creates a unique silhouette for the wearer.

"Outstanding quality, it really is something special. So well made and heavy, the wool is fantastic and the attention to detail is exceptional. A true classic that no doubt will stand the test of time."

INTRODUCING

The Boardwalk Peacoat is an iconic piece in any &SONS wardrobe and a true Pioneer favourite. The classic silhouette is something that can’t be beaten and a new season brings a new distinctive version: The Boardwalk peacoat in Army Green.

With the same much-loved details as the original, we took inspiration from the archives of style and created something special. A true labour of love for our Creative Director and Founder Phil James. From the heavyweight, 22oz Melton wool that’s been woven exclusively for &SONS to the oversized buttons, forged from recycled metal. Every detail has been considered and consciously sourced - without compromise.

To withstand the elements and create a coat that was wearable and workable, we invested in a luxury textile for the lining called Modal. A fabric made from beech tree pulp which contains 50% more absorbent microfibres than cotton and is more sustainable. The wool is recycled from old woollen garments that are repurposed and spun into new yarn.

From classic to contemporary, throughout history, the peacoat has become a staple in so many wardrobes. Famed for its origins in the military, the Peacoat's history begins as early as the 1720s and features in nearly every surplus uniform in various guises. A longer cut often referred to as a 'Bridge Coat' was only worn by officers and often adorned with gold buttons.

As the peacoat made its way across the pond, the US Navy introduced it into their uniform, and it was quickly adopted by ‘reefers’. This only highlights the versatility of the coat as reefers were the brave men who climbed the tall rigging of sailing ships, braving the harsh winds and rain. Form and function made the ultimate partnership with the peacoat which has been its success through the decades.

The high collars, double-breasted fastening and mid-length cut allowed sailors alike to move comfortably around the boat as they carried out their duties. Every iteration contains these design features, with brands making only minor changes to the design to retain the silhouette – if it ain't broke…

The pijjekker – in which 'pij' refers to the type of cloth used, a coarse kind of twilled blue cloth, and 'jekker' describes a man’s short, heavy, coat – is the original name of what is now known across the world as the Peacoat. Famed for its origins in the military, the Peacoat's history begins as early as the 1720s and features in nearly every surplus uniform in various guises. A longer cut often referred to as a 'Bridge Coat' was only worn by officers and often adorned with gold buttons.
