‘Van Wert’ Jacket Rose
Description
Inspired by the iconic FFA jacket, designed in 1933 by Dr. Gus Lintner of Frederickton, Ohio as a uniform for the Future Farmers of America Association members, our ‘Van Wert’ jacket pays tribute to an iconic piece of American farming and workwear history.
Originally made by Universal Uniform Co. of Kansas City, its classic zip fronted blouson model earned it’s place in vintage workwear history as a practical piece of workwear uniform, iconic in it’s navy corduroy, chain-stitched names and FFA patch on the back.

Uniform for the day to day, with enough elegance to sharpen up any farmer’s working gear.
