A cream denim hooded jumpsuit by Douglas Owens Gear. The oversized jumpsuit features a 16” denim hood made from two panels of denim fabric seamed together down the center front with a felled seam. Each side of the hood has dart running perpendicular to the center felled seam. The hood also has a 1.25” channel sewn along the edge with a white cotton cord fed through it. The front of the jumpsuit follows the construction of a standard jean jacket. There are two front yokes - one on each side - with three narrow triangular panels underneath. The narrow panels extend from just under the yokes and taper at the waistline and the middle narrow panel is a triangular pocket with a regular dress flap. The flap on the proper right-side pocket has a gray fabric label that has the Douglas Owens Gear brand label.
