Style 740 is an 80/20 wool/nylon blend.
Model is 6'2", weighs 175 lbs, with a 38" chest and is wearing size 38.
The US Navy Peacoat was adopted during the early 20th Century, from Britain’s Royal Navy Reefer Jacket. The Royal Navy's first regulations for uniforms for other ranks were issued in 1857, a century after the regulations for officers and this garment was originally used by Midshipmen (Reefers). These crewmen had to climb the rigging and furl and unfurl, or ‘reef’, the sails of the sailing ships of the era. The jacket was short, to allow ease of movement through the rigging. It had a double-breasted front, which displaced the buttons to each side. This helped reduce the chance of them getting caught on ropes, as the wearer maneuvered the sails. The pockets were often close to vertical, and over the flanks, rather than horizontal and at wrist level. It was made of very heavy wool, in dark Navy blue, with a nap on the face side.
The success of the style is proved by its singularly universal appearance throughout the Navies of Europe. This may account for the US Navy's nomenclature as an Anglicization of the Dutch 'Pijekkat', being a jacket made of 'Pij' (coarse wool) cloth. Conversely, it may be from the shortening of the Belgium Navies term ‘Pilot’s Jacket’ to P. Jacket, then being misspelled/adapted to Pea Coat. The term ‘Pea Jacket’ is reputed to first appear in the Oxford English Dictionary between 1717 and 1723. ‘Pea Coat’ does not appear for another century.

740 NAVY PEA COAT
I had been eyeing this coat on-line for a while but was in between which size to buy. I was recently visiting San Francisco so decided to stop by the store. Was quickly greeted by Eduardo and he helped to make sure I got the right size. Great fitting coat and great customer service, definitely recommend.
740 SCHOTTS PEA COAT
I had a Military PX in my area, so I have owned several pea coats. Schott’s Quality is top notch. My previous pea coats were size 34 so I went with that size and it fits great I can fit a hoodie underneath it if I like . I love the black which is my first. I am seriously considering the 740c leather trim version.
I love the history of this NYC company and I recommend them without hesitation.
CLASSIC COAT
Excellent traditional Pea Coat made with a great heavy wool. I’m 6’2” and 190lbs. With a 42” chest and ordered the size 42 which fits great with enough room for a sweater underneath.
740 PEA COAT
Bought this Coat as a gift for someone that needed a warm winter coat. Thrilled with the Quality, Warmth, and Appearance of the Coat. It really makes a person look and feel like Somebody special. Great Choice from a Great Company. Thank You 😊 Schott.
IT’S A CLASSIC FOR A REASON !
Having grown tired of the puffer jackets I started searching for a high quality affordable classic wool coat. I live in metro NYC area and had a chance to try on a bunch of different wool coats at the large department stores in the area. Found many nice coats but they were very expensive and too dressy for my needs.
I tried on the Schott at the great Daves Army & Navy on 6th Avenue in NYC and realized that this was the right choice for me.
Classic styling and beautifully crafted at a very reasonable price point when compared to other jackets in this category. It’s good for casual wear or if I need to get dressed up.
I ordered a 46 and needed to have the sleeves tailored but the coat is now a perfect fit.
I can wear my flannels with a sweater if needed, sweatshirts and base layers with room to move.
This coat is heavier in weight than a puffer but it’s totally manageable.
Nice and warm, looks great and I expect it to last me for many years since it seems to be indestructible.
I purchased directly from Schott Brothers and it was quickly shipped and professionally packed.
Highly recommend this coat.
Thanks !
EXCELLENT COAT
After searching for months and even purchasing an original Navy peacoat online and returning it, I ordered this legit beast. Most reviews say to order a size down and I did that as well. I still have plenty of room to layer (t-shirt, button up and thick sweater). This is not a tailored fashion jacket. This is a fairly heavy winter coat. With the right amount of layering you could wear this below 20 degrees and up to 40 degrees. I am 5’9 182lbs with an athletic build. I usually wear a large or a 42 blazer. I ordered this jacket in a 40. I may even be able to fit in a 38 but I think the shoulders would be too tight for me. It doesn’t get more classic than this jacket. Quality and craftsmanship is excellent and honestly I think this jacket should cost more. Very happy customer and I look forward to using this jacket for the next 20+ years.
HIGH QUALITY PEACOAT
I’ve never owned a coat that was so well made . The jackets fits like a glove I look forward to doing more business with Schott nyc in the future
BEST COAT I HAVE EVER OWNED
I've been eyeing this coat for a few years, and finally pulled the trigger. I've owned two other peacoats, so I have something to compare it to.
This is probably the best wool coat of any type I have ever owned. Everything about it just screams quality and elegance.
I love the traditional cut of the coat, which is very close if not identical to the traditional navy peacoats. The navy wool is thick and sturdy but not overly stiff. The buttons are big and sturdy, and the double breasted front is reversible -- you can button either side over the other.
The lapels and collar are nice and big, which is very practical on cold windy days. Another nice touch is the quilted interior lining, which feels so nice.
I'm 6'4" and 230 lbs and I ordered the 44 inch tall version, which is perfect for me. I only had to have a tailor shorten the sleeves an inch or so. Even my tailor complimented the peacoat.
And best of all, the peacoat is Made in USA. You can't go wrong with this coat. If you're on the fence, just get it. I promise you won't regret it.
SCHOTT NYC PEACOAT
This peacoat is it. The wool is heavy, The insulation is fantastic. The collar is overtop. And all in the name of keeping you warm. I am 6' 1" and about 230 so I ordered the 42" size. Fits great and has a great amount of room for sweaters and scarves. I am very happy that I pulled the trigger on this peacoat. The craftsmanship is excellent. This is a classic piece that will only leave my closet if my son eventually decides to wear it.
STYLISH COAT, GOOD VALUE
Love it. Coat is very warm and looks great. The collar pops up easily and given the structure of the wool, stays up and keeps your neck protected. Well made and good value versus many similar coats on the market.

1. How dark is the Navy color?
The Navy on the 740 is a traditional dark navy color that is almost black. You would notice blue hint when comparing to actual black. The "New Navy" color offered is more of a milder dark blue.
2. Should I get a long size?
We recommend people to go for the long size if they are over 6'2", or have long arms/torsos.
