The Over Shirt is a classic worker wear jacket which provides the perfect layer for summer months. The dropped shoulder and square cut makes the whole garment feel roomy and comfortable and this casual feel is balanced out with classic shirt making features.

A nice, simple fit alteration is to add more length (of your choice) to the body. This simple fit change turns the feel from an ‘over shirt’ into a more substantial layer, which would also work well in wool felt. Overall, this jacket is a great everyday piece for the modern wardrobe.
