Ellis Chore Coat

$850.00

When the classic French chore coat meets American workwear meets Japanese simplicity meets cozy quilt coat. With a large collar, roomy pockets, color blocked linen cotton and denim, and tonal multidirectional quilting, the unisex Ellis Chore Coat is so much more than the average chore coat. It’s the perfect shoulder season layer - breathable yet warm, ideal for 45F - 70F.

Inspired by Laura’s husband, John, whose classic American style (think James Dean) and love of Japanese woodworking and symmetry (he designed and built their entire house!) influenced every aspect of the design.

The Ellis Chore Coat is easily a wardrobe staple and that will wear like your favorite pair of blue jeans and become a future heirloom for generations to come.
