The chore coat was first donned as a protective outerwear in the nineteenth century. It was usually cut from a tough, durable cotton twill or moleskin to provide protection while working and made to be oversized to fit over other protective workwear and overalls.
The Austin Chore Coat is an updated version of the classic heritage piece. It's cut from a mid-thickness cotton twill that gives it structure but keeps it wearable in tropical climes. The silhouette has been streamlined to make it less oversized but still maintaining a chore coat's roomy, unrestrictive quality. Its many pockets and versatile design make it an ideal layering piece to travel with.
The Austin Chore Coat is fitted with metal buttons and hardware, a dual-button sleeve cuff, two flapped patch pockets with button closures on the chest, two patch pockets at the waist and a single centre vent.
