Vintage US Airforce Field Jacket with Removable Hood
Pickup currently not available
Rather a remarkable find, this is a proper one-off vintage US Airforce field jacket from the Vietnam War era, circa 1965. Wind resistant, splendidly made from 100 percent cotton, and featuring a rather ingenious Conmar zip away hood that transforms your silhouette in moments. Fly button front, drawstring waist for that custom fit, and enough pockets to make any outdoors enthusiast genuinely delighted.
What makes this jacket utterly fetching is the bespoke customisation. Original Ecru and Navy Blue naval patches sit alongside hand embroidered metalwork on wool, lending it authentic character that you simply cannot replicate. This is the sort of piece that whispers stories rather than shouts.
Why Choose Our Vintage Field Jacket
Authentic Military Heritage: Genuine US Airforce construction from the 1960s, offering that beautifully crafted quality that modern reproductions merely attempt to capture.
Bespoke Customisation: One of a kind embroidered naval patches and hand worked metalwork make this truly singular.
Practical Design: Wind resistant cotton with fly button front, drawstring waist, and generous pocket placement because function matters as much as form.
Convertible Hood: The zip away Conmar hood adapts to weather and whim alike.

THE RATHER IMPORTANT BITS
This rather lovely piece ships directly from our brand partner - we work with independent brands who are absolutely brilliant and work frightfully hard to create beautiful things.
SHIPPING DESTINATIONS
Now, here's the thing - our wonderful brand partners ship to lots of different places, but not all of them can ship worldwide.
Some are brilliant at international shipping, others prefer to keep things closer to home.
At checkout, you'll see exactly where this particular brand can send your goodies.
We're terribly sorry, but shipping costs do vary rather wildly depending on where you are in the world. The exact figures pop up at checkout - no nasty surprises!
RETURNS
You have 14 days to return items.
Now, we absolutely adore our brand partners - they work incredibly hard and we do try to support them as much as we possibly can. So I'm rather afraid we have to pass the return postage costs back to you. Frightfully sorry about that!
🌍 PLEASE CHOOSE THOUGHTFULLY:
Our wonderful partners put their hearts into everything they make.
Ordering multiple sizes to try at home is rather hard on our planet and makes things jolly difficult for these brilliant independent creators.
When in doubt, do ask us first!
PAYMENT

We Have Lots More Like This.........
Hello, we are Sostter....
Sostter began, as all good ideas do, with a lively conversation and a shared sense of frustration. Why had the world of independent design become so serious, so samey, so… beige? Where was the spark, the imagination, the sheer joy of discovering something that made you stop and stare?
We dreamt of a marketplace that celebrated difference — where curious minds could explore a world of independent brands, design-led makers, and thoughtful artisans. A space that felt exciting, human, and beautifully imperfect. Today, Sostter brings together remarkable people and their creations — from London to Lausanne, Brooklyn to Berlin — uniting makers and discoverers through craftsmanship, creativity, and conscience.
Every object tells a story, and every purchase supports an independent brand doing things differently. Explore our British makers, discover sustainable brands, browse women-led businesses, find the perfect gift for her, or simply wander through our new arrivals and see what finds you.
This is just the beginning. But enough about us — read all about us, or step inside and see what catches your imagination.

Discover our world of independent brands, conscious design, and purposeful creativity — all in one place.

Every brand on Sostter has been individually vetted for its originality, quality, and values. From sustainable fashion and ethical homeware to handmade jewellery and design-led gifts — all brought together in one considered space. Browse by location, by purpose, or simply wander and see what finds you. Want to sell with us? We'd love to hear from you.
