The Heavy Shirt is a classic work and overshirt that quickly becomes a closet staple. This shirt has a loose, relaxed fit and all the classic touches - a button placket, traditional collar, sleeve cuffs, and chest pockets. The shoulder seams fall slightly off the shoulder for a relaxed feel, and the two-piece sleeves allow for a great fit around the arms. Everything is finished with crisp topstitching accentuating all the seams and details. The chest pockets close with large button flaps that add to the workwear vibe. The Heavy Shirt is perfect for hard-wearing, everyday fabrics such as flannel, corduroy, denim, twill, or canvas. The model is wearing a size L and stands tall at 180 cm.

The PDF file was easy to open and access. The instructions and video look very informative. I won’t be making the fleece until later in the year. When I have made it I will post a further review

Great pattern for a shacket-style shirt
I love this pattern - already made two of them out of fleece for my teenage son. Very well-drafted and good fit, instructions are okay, could be better (things like making sure pictures are verbally translated, which edges to sew, etc.), but overall, info is there and accurate. Love and appreciate the patterns for men, well done WBM!
