Pieces like this were everyday uniforms for mechanics, factory workers, and craftsmen, and they developed the best character through fading, repairs, and paint marks over time. The simple, boxy cut and hidden placket made them easy to layer and tough enough for daily labor. Today, vintage chore jackets are a modern wardrobe staple because they style like a casual blazer while still feeling utilitarian and authentic. This one’s worn-in patina and honest signs of use are exactly what collectors and workwear fans look for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSize \u0026amp; Fit\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMedium\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMeasurements\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWidth (Pit To Pit) 24 \"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLength (Collar To Hem) 26 \"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll measurements are in inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsed - Good\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"French Workwear","offers":[{"title":"M","offer_id":57037981778302,"sku":null,"price":55.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2549\/6714\/files\/b4974144-2825-4186-a188-d2429d851c9c_product_51b31db2-25c7-47a7-bcf5-a7fc3af42a6f_1772808102387_68e8340d-149d-484b-b020-a912c342553c.jpg?v=1772809953","url":"https:\/\/americanmadness.co.uk\/products\/vintage-chore-jacket-blue-573859","provider":"American Madness","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
