CPO WOOL SHIRT Padded NAVY
Tradition meets function.
Chesapeake's Wool Padded Shirt CPO is inspired by the classic US Navy Chief Petty Officer shirts – rugged, warm, and built to last for decades.
A true all-rounder between a shirt and a jacket – for cold days, long walks and men who really like it.
Classic design. Timeless character.
Made from a wool-rich, padded blend , this overshirt offers comfortable warmth and a robust look at the same time.
The lined interior provides comfort and protection from the wind, while the textured wool surface develops more character with each use.
Whether as a light jacket over a tee or as a layer under a winter jacket – the CPO shirt always cuts a strong figure.

A piece of history
The CPO shirt was originally part of the uniform of American naval officers. Chesapeake's takes up this tradition – with modern materials, but the same spirit:
functional, durable, honest.
The result is not a trendy item, but a piece of workwear history for the present .
Style tip:
Wear it open over a Henley or denim shirt—or closed as a lightweight jacket. The fabric will develop a patina over time and become softer without losing its shape.
