Dot Zips, what looks like British wiring connectors, but the hide looks tone US tanned as do the side buckles...?
Patch pockets... A civilian Wired jacket?? Looks an interesting item, pity the hide looks to shot?
Any I would be interested if anyone has what it is!
Regards to all

Rick, It does indeed appear to be made from American fleece. It looks as if the jacket was constructed possibly on a USAAF airfield in the UK, judging by the relatively poor quality of the workmanship. I wonder if the connectors even worked!

I guess if they didn't the short in the wiring would probably keep one warm!
