My last SDB jacket is worsted wool...much crisper/sharper look. The braid becomes a pain because it oxidizes over time (the older type).Response by LCDR Private RallyPoint Member made Jun 28 at 2018 7:45 AM2018-06-28T07:45:05-04:002018-06-28T07:45:05-04:00LTC Stephen C.3750222<div class="images-v2-count-1"><div class="content-picture image-v2-number-1" id="image-247735"> <div class="social_icons social-buttons-on-image">
