Whether they are worn for an extra layer of protection against the elements, or simply because you like how it looks, overshirts are endlessly useful in any guy’s clothing collections. And if you find yourself needing to add to that collection, Freenote Cloth‘s latest Japanese Indigo Brushed Cotton Gilroy Shirt may very well be the perfect candidate.

While it isn’t exactly denim, it’s most definitely a close cousin. Constructed from 100% cotton brushed indigo Japanese fabric with two front chest pockets and 1/8″ double needle stitched details, this shirt is built to last. It features vintage metal buttons throughout and will fade nicely with some hard wear. Freenote’s pieces are always full of understated detailing, and in the case of this overshirt what more do you really need?

Available for $200 at Freenote Cloth.
