We used our lightweight all cotton shirt fabric to produce this copy of the classic Canoeist Smock used by the British Special Boat Squadron. This smock makes a good windbreaker but is not waterproof or water resistant.

These are made 4 inches larger than the marked size, so order your regular size for a fashion fit, or one size larger to allow for cold weather layering.

The smock features 4 front pockets, one large back pocket, and small pocket on neck for L-pill.  Button cuffs, elasticated bottom, drawstring waist.
