Model is 5’ 11”, 165 pounds wearing a size medium.
Introducing Americana Pipedream Apparel's first 100% original garment: The McGrath Bomber Jacket in Blumentarn. This versatile jacket is lovingly crafted here in the United States with a ten ounce cotton canvas exterior for unbridled durability at work, home or play. Lined with lightweight, comfortable and cool-to-the-touch 4.5 ounce French Twill fabric for extreme comfort.
A total of five pockets throughout the jacket leaves you enough space to store a phone, gloves or anything else you may need throughout your day. Two pockets utilize snap-cap flap closure to keep your items secure, while another two located directly behind them make for great easy-access or hand warming pockets. Another pocket on the left interior breast allows for a phone or wallet to be stored securely.
Both the cuffs and hem are made using Wisconsin-produced nylon rib knit. This ensures additional warmth and adds additional comfort. A medium brown corduroy collar backed by canvas for rigidity adds an extra bit of distinction and timeless style.
The final touches include zippers and snaps made by Talon, the first company to take out a patent for a zipper. It's finished in antique brass for a vintage look. In case of snags, drop a dollop of Zipper Ease or other zipper lubricant on there and run the zipper a few times.
The McGrath Bomber's Origin Story
The McGrath Bomber Jacket is the product of years of development by the Americana Pipedream team. This project began in 2021 with nothing more than one sketchbook drawing of a "work jacket" printed in the rare and obscure East German Blumentarn camouflage pattern. With AP being a new company of only two employees in 2021, neither of whom had any experience in clothing design, this project remained only a pipedream... until now.
Since 2021 we have spent hundreds of hours designing, prototyping, testing and tweaking the jacket’s design. Our goal in embarking on this project was to create the highest quality, most comfortable jacket possible while reviving vintage style and niche camouflage patterns.
Made In The USA!
We've also decided to manufacture our jacket here in the United States. This decision allows us, and you, to support local American garment manufacturing. Once a proud and thriving sector of the American economy, much of this work has been outsourced to India, Vietnam, Mexico and other places. We hope that our choice to manufacture the McGrath Bomber here in the US will provide support not only to domestic manufacturing, but to the families of those employed in the business of clothing production.
Why 10 Ounce Cotton Canvas?
This fabric stands as a steadfast companion for those who cherish long-lasting adventure and resilience against nature's elements. Cotton canvas is a versatile material: it can be waxed to repel water, it bravely guards against the sharpest thorns and edges, and its sturdy weave shields you from the fiercest winds. Whether you're navigating through dense woods or braving mountain trails, cotton canvas offers a reliable fortress of comfort and protection.
Ten ounce cotton canvas falls into a middle ground in the realm of jackets. Tough and durable enough to last for decades if properly cared for, but not too heavy for fall and spring weather. Our choice to use ten ounce canvas will ensure that your jacket withstands wearing, tearing and washing.
Why rib knit cuffs and waist?
Rib knit is a stretchy type of fabric often used to add insulating properties to a garment. Rib knit conforms to your body and helps to keep heat in. Not only is this material useful for heat retention, it's also incredibly comfortable and allows you to wear a wristwatch without snags.
