FRENCH MOLESKINE CHORE JACKET - NAVY
DESCRIPTION
Originally developed for laborers, the French chore jacket is prized for its practical cut, straight lines, and multiple front pockets built for function. When made from moleskin — a densely woven cotton fabric, it gains a unique character: soft to the touch, yet exceptionally tough.
Despite its name, moleskin contains no animal product; the term refers to the brushed, suede-like finish that gives the fabric its distinctive feel. This balance of comfort and durability has made the moleskin chore jacket a timeless essential, equally at home in the workshop or worn as a refined everyday layer.
