Fit

The BWS-05 CPO OVERSHIRT is based on a classic CPO shirt style, which stands for Chief Petty Officer. Originally this type of shirts was worn by US navy officers in the 20th century. The CPO has since transcended its military roots to become an archetype and essential piece in anyone’s wardrobe. It combines a strong and sold construction with functional detailing and a comfortable fit.

Fabric

Wool mosser fabrics are characterised by a moss-like, fluffy construction woven as a twill. They can be thick and heavy, yet fuzzy due to the wool fibres. Our 14 oz. dark navy wool mosser fabric has a super soft touch and keeps you warm at colder days. It’s very easy to wear and doesn’t need any break-in time. It has been woven by Collect Mills in Japan.
