Our Wardrobe Staples: Workwear-Inspired Chore Coats

    There are a few garment styles that feature frequently in our wardrobes here at Blackbird HQ, chore coats being one of them! Boasting a true workwear look, these versatile jackets tend to have clean, simple lines with an endless amount of opportunity for customization.

Easy enough to tackle as a beginner with a simple silhouette, we love sewing this style up in a range of medium to heavy weight woven fabrics like canvas, bull denim, or linen. Scroll to the bottom to shop our collection of chore coat-worthy fabrics!
