A Swedish military stand collar hospital jacket, estimated 1940s.
A special acquisition. We present it here as deadstock, complete with flasher, never exposed to water.
Swedish military hospital jackets arrive rarely at our shop.
This is likely a scarce piece that sees little circulation in the broader market.
Most examples circulating are in standard lapel collar configuration. This stand collar variant is the first I have encountered.
An irregular piece, seldom seen—worthy of the designation special item.
The fabric is a somewhat substantial cotton twill.
A piece of character: a lighter gray base with black striping throughout.
It carries an atmosphere reminiscent of French workwear jackets.
The collar stands; the sleeves are cut with three-dimensional front-pitch construction.
Despite its military origin, it possesses the refinement of a tailored jacket.
Inside, the original crown stamp—proof of use by Swedish forces—is clearly visible.
The size appears to be a golden measure for Japanese proportions, accommodating a range of builds.
As befits military wear, it can be worn oversized and relaxed, which carries its own elegance.
Being deadstock, the condition is without reproach. Recommended for those seeking a pristine garment.
It serves equally as an active wardrobe piece or as something to preserve in a collection.
This is not the sort of thing money simply procures. Future availability cannot be assured.
It is a piece of considerable rarity. If you have sought it, this opportunity merits your attention.
