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.
