Second Sunrise Archive: Vintage 1950's Swedish Army M/1954 Dispatch Riders Leather Jacket "Ordonnansjacka"

by Douglas Luhanko March 02, 2020

A few weeks ago I bought a Swedish Dispatch riders coat in leather for our archive! The earliest versions of the jacket dates back to 1915 but I have only seen versions from the 30's with my own eyes. The jacket remained in service up until the late 20'th century.
