Vintage Chore Jacket - Blue

Editors Notes

Blue French/Euro-style chore jacket in sturdy cotton twill with a point collar, hidden/covered front button placket, and a classic 3-pocket layout (one chest patch pocket with clipped corners plus two large lower patch pockets). Straight hem, long sleeves with button cuffs, visible topstitching throughout, and light signs of wear/spotting that add workwear character.

Chore jackets (also called bleu de travail) originated as hard-wearing work coats for European laborers, typically cut in durable cotton twill with big patch pockets for tools and daily essentials. The deep blue color became iconic because it concealed dirt and wore in beautifully over time, giving each jacket a unique patina. Lotus is a smaller workwear maker rather than a high-fashion house, but labels like this are appreciated for straightforward construction and practical detailing. Today, chore jackets are a modern wardrobe staple—easy to layer over tees, shirts, and hoodies—and they’ve been embraced in streetwear and heritage workwear styling for their clean lines and utilitarian vibe.
