This piece combines the structure of a denim shirt with the added function of a lightly padded jacket. The 6.6oz denim keeps the outer layer soft and easy to wear, while the quilted construction and cotton typewriter lining introduce a subtle layer of insulation without adding bulk.
The gourd-shaped stitching runs consistently across the body, giving the jacket a uniform texture and a more considered finish. Classic workwear elements like flap chest pockets are retained, but the overall balance of weight and proportion keeps it versatile as a layering piece. A practical, everyday option from RATS that bridges shirting and outerwear without leaning too heavily into either.
