We love what La Paz did with their Baptista Chore Coat. The three patch pockets and large corozo buttons say “work,” but the soft and comfy cotton fabric is all about leisure. Consider it your “shoulder season” layering piece for occasions that call for a little bit of both.

How to Measure
- Chest: Measure straight across from edge to edge, starting 1" below the armhole, multiply by 2
- Body Length: Start at the top of the shoulder where it meets the neck seam, and measure straight down to the hem
- Sleeve Length: Start at the center of the back of the neck, measure straight across to the shoulder seam, and then follow the edge of the garment to the cuff. Pro tip: it’s easiest to measure across the back of the sleeves
About La Paz
Portugal is a bit of a best-kept secret. While Italy and France have loudly asserted their fashion world dominance for centuries, Portugal has quietly and consistently produced some of the finest craftsmanship and fabrics in the clothing business to relatively little fanfare beyond serious menswear nerds. La Paz is a Portuguese men’s clothing brand aiming to shine a light on the unique awesomeness of their home country. For starters, these guys channel the stunning coastal scenery of their country with their earthy and oceanic color palette. They particularly thrive in designing warm weather duds that channel their sandy, beach-lovin’ roots and the European coastal-livin’ lifestyle. Yet, beyond the visual connection to home, they pay homage to the area’s salty fishermen with their super-durable construction and trend-allergic styling.
