The Men’s Enlisted Service Dress Coat is worn with the Service Dress Uniform and the Semi-Formal Dress Uniform. Manufactured with a Mil-Spec certified 55/45 polywool blend in Air Force Shade 1620 in accordance with all USAF regulations, our Men’s Enlisted Service Dress Coat features a semi-drape design, serge weave, three front buttons, a welt pocket on the upper left, two lower pocket flaps, and single vent in the back.
But while our competitors are satisfied with merely meeting the minimum quality standards forth by the Air Force, Defense Logistics Agency, and other organizations, we’ve incorporated several permissible enhancements to the Service Dress Coat—many of them based upon direct feedback from Airmen and Officers. Here are a few of the features we’ve incorporated to give our Air Force Service Dress Coat a more professional look and longer wear life:
♦ Canvas sleeve heads provide a firm feel and prevent sagging
♦ Top-quality shoulder pads for a crisp, squared-away look
♦ Full canvas chest pieces reinforce front panels for fuller appearance
♦ Extra-durable interior pockets with fusible lining material
♦ Front panel button support through the addition of firm pocketing material
♦ Easily removable buttons are spared the damage of dry-cleaning chemicals
♦ Reinforced sleeve ends protect your coat’s most vulnerable areas
*** Note *** Customers wishing to have their coats arrive ready to wear will need to choose the sleeve-hemming service that is offered when the coat is added to the shopping cart. This is because our dress coats and jackets are manufactured and ship with unfinished sleeves longer than most customers would ever need in order to accommodate various arm lengths. Sleeve hemming is automatically included as part of our Chevron Sewing service since the placement of sleeve devices and sleeve stripes or services stripes is based on the distance from the end of the sleeve.
