Christian Kimber Fitzroy Chore Jacket, Burgundy Brown

Workwear colours are drab because the dyes were cheap. Nobody chose them. They were what you could get a hundred pounds of for very little money, and a century later we read them as authentic.

Burgundy brown is what happens when someone makes the same jacket without that constraint. Italian cotton with stretch, four patch pockets, collar rather than lapel, unlined. The shape is the original. The colour is a decision.

It is the Fitzroy for someone who already owns the khaki one.
