Rugged, versatile, and backed by one hell of a history
We dug deep into our Head Designer’s vintage collection to get the Classic Chore Coat just right. First worn by French rail workers in the 1800s, this iconic silhouette proves that durability, a clean cut, and utilitarian touches like roomy patch pockets never go out of style. But we made it our own with a hint of stretch and garment washing for a soft, lived-in feel. Polished enough to sub in for a blazer, laidback enough to throw over a tee, versatile enough to layer any month of the year—your jacket lineup just got a new starter.

How to Measure
- Chest: Measure straight across from edge to edge, starting 1" below the armhole, multiply by 2
- Shoulder: Measure straight across from shoulder seam to shoulder seam. Again, it’s easiest to measure across the back of the garment
- 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 sleeve
