Women’s French Workman’s Jacket in French Blue Herringbone

$228.00

We perfected the fit of our best-selling French Workman's Jacket for women in a colorful range of cotton herringbone twills.

The traditional workman’s jacket was designed in the late 1800s as a practical, protective layer for the French working class to wear over their clothes, complete with numerous patch pockets to hold tools and spare parts. We designed ours to have all the function you need, and nothing you don’t with carefully considered details and a perfect fit.

Herringbone Twill

Cotton herringbone twill (or HBT) was most notably used in military fatigues in WWII, but has since been co-opted for use in everyday garments for its hard-wearing quality and subtly patterned weave.

We garment-dyed and washed our jackets to give them a broken-in look and feel, reminiscent of some of our own favorite vintage HBT garments that only continue to improve with each wear.
