The Mendon Overshirt offers a sophisticated twist on classic flannel with its durable 9.5oz Japanese melton wool construction. Designed for versatility, it's the perfect standalone jacket or layering piece over shirts and sweaters. Featuring unique acorn-curve pocket flaps and substantial chest pockets, it combines style with functionality. The cotton/rayon satin lining adds comfort, making it ideal for transitional seasons. Spot clean or dry clean to maintain its quality. Designed and produced in Southern California, this overshirt seamlessly blends utility and style.
From the brand: The Mendon Overshirt is the update to their long-running Alta style, with a bit more flair and some slightly roomier pockets. It's designed to be worn as an intermediate piece, sufficient as a standalone jacket for most of the year, it can still fit under a larger coat while sitting on top of another shirt or a chunky sweater for maximum warmth. Similar to the Alta, it's cut like a flannel shirt, and features two substantial chest pockets (large enough to fit most modern smartphones inside), and another two welted pockets below that for your hands.
The shapes are a little different: where the Alta's pocket flaps were flat, these feature an "acorn" curve. Similarly, where the Alta's two hand pockets were sometimes hard to see due to their construction — on the Mendon, Freenote have combined the welted pocket entrance with a pseudo-patch-pocket stitching outline, giving the Mendon a more substantial, jacket-vibe.
It's made from a pretty sturdy 9.5oz melton wool from Japan, with a warm and soft hand thanks to the 100% wool composition. Slightly thick and stiff at first, it will continue to break in and soften with wear. Inside, it's trimmed with a cotton/rayon satin lining around the cuffs and the back yoke, and the whole thing closes up with tonal corozo catseye buttons.
Runs true to size. Spot clean or dry clean.
