The exterior has a patch pocket on the left chest with two dual-access utility pockets below; a button closure pocket on the inside the jacket to the right side. The cotton is indigo dyed. A Boneville logo with nautical striped bands has been pigment printed on the inner back of the jacket, visible on the bag. This has been printed pre-laundering.
