Wallace & Barnes duck canvas utility chore jacket
rugged essentials inspired by traditional workwear, old military uniforms and classic outdoor gear. Based on a vintage French workwear style, this chore jacket is constructed from a heavy, durable cotton called duck canvas, the same material used for Dutch navy uniforms in the 18th century (in fact, duck comes from doek, the Dutch word for linen canvas). This jacket will break in the more you wear it, just like your favorite jeans, and supports more responsibly grown cotton through the Better Cotton Initiative.

Great spring jacket
February 12, 2025I love this jacket, it's perfect for spring and fall on days when I can wear a t-shirt underneath. It goes well with jeans and chinos. Despite being workwear, it looks smart when buttoned up, so I often wear it to the office.

Classic Jacket for Men
December 10, 2024I bought this jacket for my husband last Christmas and he uses it at least once per week. He uses it both casually and when going into the office. The brown color is so classic and it really goes with everything.

It’ll last until the heat death of the universe
June 18, 2023This thing is TOUGH. I can see why the fabric was used in naval uniforms. It can stop a knife. A blunt one, but still. But the toughness won’t feel good over a t-shirt. You have to break it in, wash it a lot, with rocks. Then it’ll be tough AND soft.

Great materials, but bad fit
June 7, 2023The quality of the jacket material is very nice- the canvas feels durable and comfortable, the collar stands well, and the pockets are deep and plenty. However, the fit is just not great, even after sizing up. Very boxy, and doesn’t allow you to lift your arms up or forward without getting tight in the back and pulling. With a better pattern, this would be a winner all day long.

Nice quality chore jacket
April 29, 2023This jacket fits me perfectly and is not tight or baggy. The duck canvas makes this jacket rugged and since it's not waxed, it may fade better throughout the years. I imagined it would take some time to break these in. The jacket is light-medium weight but duck canvas will trap in more heat. The color has a greenish hue to it, so it's more of a blue-green colored jacket than pictured. Overall, it's a nice unlined jacket for the spring and fall season.
