They were originally produced for workers on the Manchester ship canal according to a company called Lewis Leathers who sell them.

When I was a young lad, I drove a dump truck in a gravel pit. In the winter they gave me a donkey jacket. It was a bit too big for me, but I liked and used it for quite a few years before it got forgotten about and someone probably throw it out.

I had one when I was about 15 and went through a brief skinhead phase before opting for the Harrington.
I think I got it from a dodgy army surplus type shop together with a flick knife.

I remember walking down the Manchester Road Isle of Dogs back in the day and spotted a fella in a donkey jacket with WHU stenciled across the back of. Made me smile.

Was a KEEN wearer in my skinhead youth around 79-81, probably from The Last Resort in Goulston Street or one of those shit mail order places in the back of Sounds
Probably not due a comeback even if you work on the dust
