Inspired by traditional workwear, the W2 chore jacket combines a modern silhouette with functional elements. Featuring a boxy fit, curved patch pockets, and a split hem, it offers both style and practicality. Made from 10oz Japanese Hickory stripe fabric, it gains a vintage feel as it wears and washes. An internal pocket and vintage buttons enhance its utility, making this jacket a versatile choice for any wardrobe.
From the brand: The W2 is a new style for us which is inspired by traditional workwear chore jackets but with a modern silhouette which is easy to wear and style whilst having functional features.
Once the Hickory fabric is worn and washed the indigo will bleed into the whiter parts creating a really nice vintage feel to the jacket.
