Cathartt Chore Coat - Indigo
TCB - Cathartt Core Coat - Indigo
This time, TCB referred to a vintage Carhartt jacket from the 20s. It was a dream jacket for them, and they used details from their own jackets mixed with everything they know about the ones from an earlier time frame. This piece is developed from a super rare Master Cloth chore coat that had the heart-shaped tag only available until the 20s. They've used a relatively low tension weave for this piece with a 7 to 1 warp to weft count. This will lead to wild, raindrop fades! In terms of fading, this is dyed with 100% indigo dyes. According to TCB, at some point in history, they started diluting the indigo which gave garments a green tint as they faded. That will not be the case with this piece. This indigo has more blue than black tint to it for a light, royal color that is reminiscent of its origins (this is because they dyed the cotton fewer times in indigo baths to save cost).
*To those who have other TCB chore jackets,
The fabric is softer than the one of Tabby's Jacket or of Black Cat Jacket but the blue tinge is very similar to Tabby's. The twill line is much more visible on the fabric of this new chore jacket so the more vertical, so-called rainfall fade is expected.
- 100% rope dyed indigo cotton
- Square collar with a joint at the center.
- Adjustable change buttons with eyelets on the cuffs and the collar
- Set-in sleeve
- Light blue bartack details
- Low sleeve caps often seen on the garments of 20s or before
- Patch pockets
- Custom Cathartt woven labels and heart snaps
All the buttons used on this Carhartte Chore Coat are change buttons so that we recommend you take them off before washing. In case of breakage or loss of the buttons, we don't offer the buttons for free of charge.
PROUDLY DESIGNED and MADE in Kojima, Japan only by TCB crews.

*A variance of +/- 0.5" is within tolerance
*All measurements are in inches and measured on a flat surface. Sleeve length is measured on the underarm from armpit to the end of cuff. Body length is measured from center-back of neck seam to the bottom of garment.
*Fit Notes: This jacket is built with true vintage specs. It's definitely an oversized jacket and is built to wear with a relaxed fit. You could easily fit a heavyweight sweatshirt underneath if you go with your true size. For this shoot, Tommy wore a size 40 because it was the only thing available at the time. Tommy is our standard fit reference, and he would wear a 36 in all likelihood but could wear a 38 if he was looking for room to layer. We’ve adjusted the size notations (s=36) to give you a more accurate picture of how roomy these are. Tommy is 5'10," 165lbs with a 40" chest.

Crosscut Flannel - Rust Twill Plaid
This Crosscut has all that heavy texture goodness for which the shirt is known. It's a chunky twill with the enamel-coated buttons you all know and love. And, it's a gorgeous Rust color that shoots a bit of saturation into an otherwise desaturated lineup for FW23. Still though, this shirt has a softness from the brushing process that we've come to appreciate. The day of the stiff, crunchy flannel has come to an end, at least for now. Cozy is in, but without losing the hardiness this thing cut its teeth on.
Easy Pant - Dry Garden Jacquard
The Easy Pant is a roomy, comfy fitting pant with a cut nice enough to make you want to wear it out and about, but just as easily to lounge on the couch. It carries on this season's beige/tan color story in this gorgeous off-white color they're calling Dry Garden. If you were lucky enough to get your hands on one of the last two pieces, these pants will pair perfectly with them. We really appreciate that they used their newly acquired fabric wizardry to do the talking. Since pairing with their factory in India, the level of textile uniqueness is through the roof. This Jacquard has a topographical hand feel that you can see in the pictures but only truly experience in person. It's very, very hard to shock us after 10 years of seeing and touching fabrics on a daily basis - but this Dry Garden Jacquard has opened our eyes to what technical weaving can be.
Shop Jacket - Dry Garden Jacquard
The Shop Jacket is a new silhouette for FW23 that is designed with a nod toward classic European chore coats. It carries on this season's beige/tan color story in this gorgeous off-white color they're calling Dry Garden. If you were lucky enough to get your hands on one of the last two pieces, this jacket will layer over the top of them so nicely.

We figured it was due time to bring in some tees from our fan-favorite brand. Our thinking was that if they make pants and shirts and sweats so well, the tee shirts must be impeccable. Well, they are. We love the loose, boxy fit of this tee more than we expected. And the little embroidery of the islands of Japan at the yoke is fantastic. The jersey fabric is heavy without being a "heavyweight" tee. It's a jersey with just enough weight that you can feel it but not so much that it feels like a task to put it on. This and the roomier cut give it nice breathability. If you're an orSlow stan like we are at the shop, you're gonna need one of these puppies.
If you asked the question "What would it be like if you put pockets on the Fatigue Pants?" - this might just be your answer. Of course, it has different pockets and a slightly different cut, but a similar look overall. We've received more questions about this pant over the past 6 months than we know what to do. Sometimes, we like to snag something, if we can, to test fit and glean public opinion. This one was a "yes" from the general pop, and from us at the shop, so it had to be brought in. The major difference between this and most fatigues is that ripstop fabric. It's the grid pattern you see on a macro level in the pants that is built to be more resistant to ripping and tearing. It was one of the military's first tech fabrics, without using any actual synthetic tech. Where they lack the texture of the reverse sateen, they gain a ton with the ripstop. These are a little smoother overall and we're over the moon for this roomier fit. They take on a whole new wardrobe inspiration with this loose, comfy feel. The side tab adjusters make it quite utilitarian as the piece is as a whole in general. These babies have everyone swooning.
