This denim utility jacket was adopted by the US Navy in the 1930s. Its official name is a dungaree jumper, and the warp threads are dyed with a dark indigo dye to hide stains from work, while the weft threads are made of twisted heather yarn. The buttons are fastened with a G-ring from the back, which is called a "change button." Unlike tuck buttons, they do not require special fastening tools, and since they are not fastened with threads, they have a rational detail that prevents them from falling off due to thread breakage. The collar is a shawl collar with no tip, so that it will not flap even when exposed to strong winds when working on the deck of a ship, and the back of the collar is cut on the bias, so after repeated washing, a unique distortion appears as wrinkles, giving it a deep flavor.
