A subtle evolution of the chore jacket, this new style blends the easy functionality of classic workwear with the poise of an unstructured blazer. Think of it as a smart coat with a practical streak, or a work jacket with a touch of quiet ambition.
Cut from a sturdy, garment-dyed 11.8oz cotton canvas with a satisfying heft yet a soft, broken-in feel, the silhouette is boxy and relaxed, drawing inspiration from early 20th-century utility garments.
Double hip patch pockets, echoing traditional carpenter’s coats, offer plenty of storage, while the addition of gauntlet cuffs and a convertible fastening gives the piece a certain modular elegance. Button it all the way up for a clean, utilitarian look, or fold back the lapels like a casual blazer. Either way, it wears in beautifully, and works hard without trying too hard.
