13-Star HBT Jacket
SOLD
The two-piece herringbone twill suit was briefly issued between 1941 and 1942 as the first non-denim fatigues and was a drastic departure from its predecessor, opting for olive herringbone twill over indigo denim with new, bold 13-star metal tack buttons. The jacket is instantly recognizable today as a result of these signature features.
