Uskees Buttoned 3001 Overshirt Burst Grape

The Uskees Buttoned 3001 Overshirt in Burst Grape is a purposeful evolution of the traditional 20th-century chore coat, providing a robust solution for those who require a versatile layer for creative or practical work. This overshirt addresses the need for a garment that is both a functional tool and a contemporary wardrobe staple, utilising a heavy-duty organic cotton construction. Its striking Burst Grape colourway provides a bold alternative to standard workwear tones, while the classic boxy silhouette ensures it functions perfectly as a standalone jacket or a substantial mid-layer for year-round use.

Our Style, Fit & Sizing Recommendations

• This overshirt is cut with a generous, straight silhouette that provides a comfortable, non-restrictive feel across the chest and shoulders
• This garment fits true to size for its intended relaxed look
• The hem is designed to sit at the hip, providing a classic chore coat length that works well for various heights

Washing & Care Instructions

• Machine wash at 30°C with similar colours using a non-biological detergent to prevent the breakdown of the natural yarns and to ensure the garment lasts for its intended long life
• Tumble dry on a low setting, though we recommend hanging the overshirt to air dry naturally to best preserve the fabric's structure
• Use a medium iron setting to keep the collar and pockets looking sharp and well-defined

Uskees Buttoned 3001 Overshirt - Our FAQs

1. How does the 3001 compare to a standard denim jacket?
   While similarly durable, the 3001 uses a softer organic cotton twill that offers a more flexible drape and a cleaner, more minimalist aesthetic than traditional denim.

2. Will the Burst Grape colour bleed into other clothes?
   As with all deep pigments, we recommend washing this overshirt with similar dark colours for the first few cycles to prevent any potential dye transfer.

3. Is this overshirt thick enough to be worn as a jacket?
   Yes, the weight of the organic cotton makes it substantial enough to function as a light jacket in mild weather, though it remains breathable enough for indoor use.

4. Are the elbow reinforcements visible?
   The reinforced sections are made from the same fabric, providing a subtle, tonal look that adds strength without detracting from the simple design.
