CUSTOM MADE - German U Boat Jacket as used in Dr Who
Wested were contracted to make this ¾ U Boat Jacket in Mid Grey Leather for the Film Das Boot.
But the coat is so good we were asked to remake the jacket in Black worn by Christopher Eccleston in the TV series Dr Who.
The style known as a reefer jacket its the perfect leather 3/4 coat coming in a variety of skin choices and made in England.
The double-breasted coat has beautiful double stitch details on the front point design (continued at the back of the jacket).
Based on a WW2 German submarine jacket and bought back to the future by Wested Leather.
