Behind the Seams with Mike Faherty
It’s a classic for a reason. Originally woven from thick wool to keep U.S. Navy sailors warm in sea storms, the CPO is adored for its functionality and timeless aesthetic. It’s one of the few pieces that’s transitioned from the military to the mainstream.
Since its 1930s origins, the CPO has been reimagined in every imaginable fit and fabric… except a couple of our favorites.
We’re not sure it’s possible to make a vintage icon like the CPO better, but you can certainly uphold its legacy.
We wanted a cool-weather staple that’s comfortable, authentic, and practical. So, we made the High Standard Canvas CPO.
As the newest addition to our Sunwashed Collection, this cotton CPO shares the faded, broken-in look of our bestselling tees and hoodies. It’s easy to dress up or down, and you can layer it over a favorite shirt or wear it solo.
Simply put, it’s a relaxed and rugged must-have.
But there’s even more to the story.
Watch Mike Faherty, Co-Founder and Chief Creative Officer, share his process for creating a modern favorite that honors the past.
