The word "wambuis" was, certainly before 1900, in the Netherlands the<br>
right word for "buis" or "kiel". It was a buttonless piece of<br>
clothing that covered the body from neck to hips. Such as sailors and<br>
the Royal navy semen wear. In the neighbourhood of Apeldoorn in the<br>
Netherlands is a restaurant called "Planken Wambuis". It may have been<br>
built with timber wood, but nobody knows what is has to do with<br>
Wambuis or jacket.<br>
I hope this will answere your question a bit.<br>
