Looking for a civilian-spec peacoat with history? One of America's oldest clothing companies, Schott was founded in the Lower East Side of Manhattan in 1913. The brand quickly rose to prominence, focusing on leather jackets and wool outerwear. While Schott may be better known for their leather jackets today, the brand has a long history of making wool garments of the same quality right here in the USA. Despite missing out on contracts for the Navy's 1910 model coats, they would become one of the most prolific suppliers of the garment through WWII. 

The Short & Sweet:

• Made in the USA
• Authentic Schott product 
• Single- or double-breasted 
• Some lined, some not
• Colors vary: blue, grey, and black 

These civilian spec coats are made with the quality the brand is known for. Like most of their apparel, these are made in the USA with a myriad of subtle changes in color, cut, and features. If you're open to a bit of a change-up in details, you're sure to walk away with one of the best American-made wool coats you're gonna find.
