Eisenhower in the first half of the 20th century, our bestselling workwear icon features a quilted taffeta lining, durable cotton canvas construction and a durable water-repellent coating that protects against the elements. But while the Eisenhower Jacket was originally designed for the battlefield, its simple and uncomplicated design now looks more at home on the streets.
