Vintage Industries Darwin Shirt Jacket

Darwin – checked flannel with the function of a jacket

Darwin has a checked flannel shirt’s relaxed look, but a concealed zip and warming fleece interior make it useful as a shirt jacket. It is a workwear-inspired overshirt that fits naturally with jeans and cargo trousers.

More than an ordinary flannel shirt

The cotton flannel has a soft, substantial surface. Polyester microfleece lines the body for insulation, while smoother polyester sleeve lining helps it slide over your clothes. A full-length zip closes the front, adding a useful jacket function. Chest and side-seam pockets keep the design practical and simple.

Our sizing advice

In our experience with Darwin, choose one size larger, especially if you want room for a sweatshirt underneath. This allows the layers without pulling across the shoulders. Over a T-shirt it works as an overshirt on milder days; adding a jumper extends its usefulness into cooler weather.
