Utility Jacket – 1941 Utility Jacket Hickory Stripe Brown Pike Brothers

Pike Brothers Utility Jacket — 1941 Utility Jacket Hickory Stripe Brown

The "Hickory Stripe" fabric originated in the United States in the late 19th century. It was initially a very durable cotton fabric intended for workwear, specifically designed for railroad workers, engineers, and mechanics. It takes its name from the hickory tree, which symbolizes its extreme strength. This distinctive pattern was extremely practical, as it cleverly concealed the soot, oil, and grease accumulated during long days working on steam locomotives. In the 1920s, this fabric became an official industry standard, cementing its legacy as an iconic symbol of American railroad history, before gradually becoming the standard in workwear, particularly for industrial trades.
Our "Hickory Stripe Brown" is a darker, more visually appealing version of the classic white and blue stripes. We offer a full range of clothing so you can create a complete outfit, just as it was worn back then.
All items made from "Hickory Brown" fabric are pre-washed for comfort and a better fit.

The Utility 1941 jacket is inspired by the legendary USMC P41 jacket. The P41 was the standard-issue field jacket of the United States Marine Corps in the early 1940s and was worn daily. The Utility jacket features a classic cut, three exterior pockets, and is an icon among American military jackets.
