Red wool flannel blazer or jacket, single breasted with three brass shank buttons. The jacket is trimmed with red grosgrain ribbon around the collar, pockets, cuffs and the bottom hem. The ribbon has two fine black stripes on each edge. The front of the jacket has three patch pockets with two at the hips and one on the right chest. No lining. It has a coat loop at the back of the neck. The shoulder seams have been cut so they angle down the back rather than straight long the shoulder line.
