MODEL WEARS MEDIUM: Chest 41” // Waist 32” // Height 5ft 9”
A new direction for &SONS best-selling chore jacket.
19th century France was the birthplace of the original ‘bleu de travai’ (blue work) chore jackets, simple garments made from hard-wearing cotton. They made the perfect workers jacket with two large pockets to store tools, a loose fit, and a shorter length than a standard jacket to stop it from getting caught in machinery.
When we started to develop a HARD.WEAR version of our iconic Carver jacket, we looked to find a fabric that would offer durability and a maximum range of movement – our search led us to a rich, mid-weight denim.
The 13oz denim is supplied by ISKO, one of the world’s leading responsible denim manufacturers. We have added a slight stretch to give the jacket movement with minimal restrictions - often found with traditional workwear.
The denim fade is the perfect patina and looks aged the moment I put it on.
Few jackets are as tough, versatile, and functional as the traditional chore.
This faithful Chore ticks every workwear box and has done since the 19th Century when used by French artisans and US railroad workers to provide comfort, protection, and functionality.
These original chore jackets came equipped with oversized breast pockets, two hip pockets and a button-down collar that could be folded up to protect workers from the elements. The boxy, loose fit was ideal for layering in the colder months.
