The chore jacket started as workwear, which is why it still works so hard as an everyday layer. This one comes in a soft, textured corduroy.

The details that make it work

The textured corduroy finish gives it more depth and warmth than a flat cotton twill. A single-breasted button front and turn-down collar keep the classic workwear shape. Multiple patch pockets across the front are practical rather than decorative, with room for your phone, keys and wallet. It's a regular weight, so it works as an outer layer on milder days and over a jumper when it's colder. It runs small, so we recommend sizing up.

Where it fits in

Over a white tee and jeans for the weekend, or over a hoodie and cargo trousers for a more relaxed look. Five colours give you plenty of choice.
