Japanese Chore Jacket

Japanese Chore Jacket

Inspired by the iconic chore coats of early 20th century American laborers, this humble design is rendered sublime in the same hardy, indigo-striped Japanese cotton used in our Okayama Indigo Stripe Ball Cap. Born to work, it will age and fade with use, acquiring its own hard-earned patina. The multiple flap pockets with button closure will safeguard the tools of your trade. This is workwear at its finest.
