The 411 on the original Eisenhower Jacket

The Eisenhower Jacket Story

General Eisenhower had requested a waist-cropped style; his based on the British battle jacket, "but with more distinctive style." Eisenhower was a partisan advocate of the British jacket’s functional sensibilities. Designed to be the second, insulated layer, the Ike jacket, a.k.a. M-44, was created to be worn underneath the M-43, field jacket. In extreme cold, a sweater, flannel shirt, and wool-cotton T-shirt could be worn under the Ike jacket. He considered his jacket an every-warrior’s combat uniform.
