Post Overalls sees your cropped t-shirts, hoodies, sweaters, & pants and raises the stakes while chopping the hem. The result is the Mechanic Blouse in an 8 oz deep wash indigo denim. Modeled after what appears to be a classic chore coat design sans the bottom half, the shorter length and 2-pocket deduction doesn’t bother us at all. An agile lightweight garment that seamlessly translates into daily living without fear of getting asked to weld steel beams on the RCA building in 1930s NYC? Sign us all the way up.

Adorned with 2 off-center ‘acorn’ shaped pockets and metal donut buttons, a cinch back around back harkens back to even earlier days of workwear when the selvedge line between jacket and shirting was a little hazy. But for us, it’s just another cool detail to add to the pile which makes this lightweight, heavy-duty chore-shirt-jacket-blouson one to seriously consider as Spring rounds the corner.

Available for $350 from Sun House.
