Melton 1970s Buffalo Plaid Wool Jacket

Melton Outerwear was a staple American outdoor and workwear manufacturer known for producing heavyweight, rugged wool garments throughout the mid to late 20th century. This jacket features classic red and black buffalo check plaid in a heavy woven wool construction, equipped with a period-correct brass Talon zipper. The silhouette represents traditional North American hunting and forestry workwear, designed with dual flap chest pockets, angled slash hand pockets, and button-adjustable cuffs. Produced in the United States, pieces from this era remain solid functional vintage staples with consistent heritage appeal.
