Barnard (Shirt Coat)

Barn coats may be having a moment, but they’ve always been part of the landscape in New England. 

When we got our hands on this fabric from American Woolen, we knew we had to make something special with it. The fabric is constructed with a warp-faced weave, a technique that uses a dense arrangement of threads to create a unique look and a texture that echoes corduroy in the best way. At a hefty 21 ounces, this wool blend brings a natural warmth, with a hint of stretch for just enough ease.

This barn jacket inspired shirt coat features two lower dual entry pockets, an outer patch pocket at the left chest, a hidden internal patch pocket on the right sideand a grandad collar for a bit of old school cool.

Like our flagship flannel, Barnard is the pinnacle of New England craftsmanship. Milled by American Woolen in Stafford Springs, CT and sewn by New England Shirt Co. in Fall River, MA. Hundreds of years of history and textile expertise go into this garment.
