Description

California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) prisoner-issued windbreaker jacket in the classic institutional blue colorway with large yellow “CDCR PRISONER” identification lettering across the back. Constructed from lightweight weather-resistant nylon, this style was designed for daily inmate use, providing protection from wind and light rain while maintaining clear institutional identification.

This example remains in exceptionally well-preserved condition, retaining strong color, crisp lettering, and minimal signs of wear.

Our photo books provide rare, first-person perspectives from within otherwise inaccessible worlds, often created in direct collaboration with those involved. 550BC is also home to a private collection of over 2,000 unique physical items, preserved artifacts from the worlds we document. A selection is presented in our online archive.
