The Gill Coat is a hooded coat with a loose, long fit. It has a self-lined front and hood, an internal chest pocket, enlarged slot buttons threaded onto seatbelt tape, and slashed pockets that extend from the armholes. Master Shield cloth is made of 100% Giza cotton. It has a dry, matte handfeel and was developed by the British Air Force in the late 19th century. The design of this cloth was later recommissioned in Japan by the Japanese Coast Guard.
