Hickory stripe is function turned into design. What began as a practical way to disguise stains has become one of the most recognisable fabrics in vintage workwear.
This version has real depth thanks to the mixed-yarn construction and unsinged finish, which gives the surface a subtle texture rather than a flat look. The lighter indigo tones and grey-dyed weft add dimension, and as it fades the stripes will soften without losing their structure.
The blue bar tacks and cat-head branding add just enough character, but it still feels grounded in genuine 1930s coverall history. Easy to wear with denim, fatigues or chinos, it is the kind of jacket that improves the more it is used.
