In June 1919, the U.S. Army officially adopted blue denim work clothing as its standard fatigue uniform, replacing the earlier brown variants. The original set included a pullover-style jumper, five-pocket trousers, and the iconic Denim Army Hat, more commonly known as the Daisy Mae.
This blue denim pullover, designated spec number 6-125, was introduced in 1919 as part of the U.S. Army’s updated work uniform. Designed with a more relaxed fit than earlier versions, it addressed the practical challenges of wear and removal, striking a balance between durability and ease of movement, essential for labour-intensive tasks.
In use until 1940, this style became a mainstay not only in military service but also in civilian applications. Notably, it was widely issued to participants of the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC), a New Deal job relief program that employed young men during the Great Depression. Its rugged construction and utilitarian design made it a reliable uniform for both military and public works efforts.
Simple in design & construction, this pullover features contrasting white stitching throughout as well as a button front using tinplate buttons. Two large utilitarian chest pockets have been paired with button cuff adjusters to alter fit.
