The E11 Raglan Chore Jacket is steeped in workwear history being used as protective clothing by farmers and railroad workers, but works just as well when worn over tailoring.
We have utilised a raglan cut sleeve construction for easy manoeuvrability and a clean tailored finish. It has a slightly boxy fit which means it's great for layering as well as a standalone piece.
Once the fabric is worn and washed the indigo will bleed into the whiter parts creating a really nice vintage feel.
It's finished off with a vintage set of WW2 era buttons, which are easily removed/replaced.
