This Simmons Bilt's version of the iconic Donkey jacket. Made from heavy Melton black wool produced in the UK. This one has steerhide leather trim snd one inside pocket, oversized front pockets, leather under collar and horn buttons.

The so called Donkey jackets can be traced back to 1888, when a specific work jacket was produced for navigators constructing the Manchester Ship Canal. In 1929, the Oxford English Dictionary used the term to describe the Donkey Jacket as “One with leather shoulders and back”. Today it is perhaps one of the most iconic work garments associated with United Kingdom and is still appreciated for its simple shape and functional design.

The jacket is second hand but in great condition without any visible damage.
