Grizzly Jacket is a distinctive outerwear garment characterized by leather sleeves and trim combined with a fur body. The style gained traction, leading to other companies adopting variations in the early 1930s. Modifications included the use of thick mouton panels instead of hair-on ponyskin. The peak of the Grizzly jacket’s popularity occurred in 1937. The origins of the Grizzly Jacket can be traced back to the early 20th century when leather primarily served protective or lining purposes in jackets and coats.
