Blluemade Sews Up a Slouchy Overshirt In Belgian Linen

Blluemade‘s latest Jacket Shirt in Green Belgian Linen doesn’t glow luminescent when Orcs are nearby, but it is a solid choice to wear to Bilbo’s birthday party next week if you’re one of those Hobbits that parties during lockdown. And when you do happen to go to battle whilst rocking this jacket shirt, be sure to layer your Mithril chainmail underneath, for protection against Morgul knives, duh.

The shirt appears to take influence from French workwear, but it’s crafted from a lovely Belgian linen, perfect for a hot day on the job, or your WFH setup on a chilly morning. Chore coats are so versatile, and with a simple layout like this – two hip pockets, front button placket, and stand collar – how can anyone disagree?

I’d expect some comments and compliments when wearing this piece, especially from the Elves, they’ll want to know all about the magical realm of Belgium.  You can tell them it’s made in New York, too.
