U.S.NAVY VBF-6 to 1949 BONNEVILLE HOTRODDER” from FREEWHEELERS.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nBased on the image of civilian deck jackets from the late 1940s through the 1950s, this model combines elements of early deck zip jackets and the N-1 deck jacket.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nThis custom version is built around the story of VBF-6, the U.S. Navy fighter-bomber squadron known by the nickname “WHISTLING DEATH,” which served aboard the aircraft carrier USS Hancock during World War II.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nThe concept imagines a former squadron member returning to civilian life after the war, becoming involved in hot rodding, and customizing his own deck jacket before entering the 1949 speed trials at the Bonneville Salt Flats.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nOn the right chest is a “WHISTLING DEATH” patch made with cotton duck and finished with horizontal swing embroidery using cotton thread.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nThe left chest features a dimensional patch constructed from red wool-rayon felt layered with white felt, then finished with Sagara and chain embroidery.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nAcross the back is a reflective “U.S.NAVY” print together with an airbrushed flying skull graphic representing the squadron.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nOver this, crossed pistons and a V8 engine motif are layered using a discharge-style print, combining military imagery with postwar American motor culture in a single custom design.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nThe jacket itself features an N-1-inspired collar finished with alpaca.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nA throat strap is fitted at the collar, while the front uses both a zipper and buttoned storm flap to improve wind protection.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nAngled patch pockets are placed at both sides of the hem for easy access.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nWool inner ribs at the cuffs and a drawcord at the hem add practical deck-jacket details and help retain warmth.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nThe outer shell is made from FREEWHEELERS’ original cotton duck with a dry finish.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nThe densely woven fabric has a firm, substantial hand while gradually developing natural creases, wear, and character through repeated use.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nThe lining uses 100% alpaca pile with a long nap and excellent heat retention.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nA layer of cotton flannel is placed between the outer cotton duck and alpaca lining, creating a three-layer structure with strong insulation for cold-weather wear.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nCompared with the brand’s N-1 deck jacket, this model has more room through the body and sleeves.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nThe generous silhouette allows comfortable layering over heavyweight sweatshirts and knitwear while maintaining ease of movement.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nWith its strong wind resistance and substantial insulation, it is well suited not only for everyday winter wear but also for use while riding a motorcycle or bicycle.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDETAIL\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMODEL\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n“1945 U.S.NAVY VBF-6 to 1949 BONNEVILLE
