Kyle buys a double-breasted Vétra jacket
If you want a good American-made option with more of a Western look, Big Bud Press makes a fun unisex work jacket. I have it in marine blue. https://bigbudpress.com/collections/work-jackets
you are a chore coat pro
I am a huge fan of the Univeral Works bakers jacket

That looks great! Thanks for the rec, we'll definitely collect more suggestions and put them in a future newsletter.
Are we all sharing our favorite chore jackets?! My current favorite is the Engineered Garments Workaday jacket, it's a nice, relaxed, boxy fit: https://independence-chicago.com/eg-workaday-utility-jacket-dark-navy-cotton-reverse-sateen/
The EG Bedford jacket is great too, but that one is a tad bit less casual because of the lapels.
Just bought my first French-inspired chore coat from Paynter Jackets! Love their whole concept: made-to-order and updates sent throughout the construction process. Can’t wait for it to get colder in DC so that I can enjoy it 🥰 https://paynter.co.uk/collections/batch-no-18-the-five-year-anniversary-chore-jacket

i, too, was curious if this would be mentioned
honestly I (Kyle) missed this article entirely but here it is https://www.gq.com/story/rip-chore-coats — love Noah but I have to disagree
I'm an Imogene + Willie Jack Jacket fanatic. I wear my French Blue one just about everywhere.

Also, Best Made is BACK: https://www.bestmadeco.com/
I got a Vetra chore coat - except the length of a car coat - from the late, great Present, in Shoreditch a few years back. The variation (as with your db) makes all the difference.
RIP to the retail of the past!
