V175 - Laceback Dungarees
These high-waisted, loose-fitting dungarees serve as my version of a classic Naval trouser. Since finding a great old pair of 40s wool trousers, I have been intrigued by the sideseamless construction and easy fit of this design. My version takes the interesting construction technique a step further, adding a crotch gusset and cutting the pattern with one leg seam on the selvedge. Finally, they are finished with a laceback design taken from a pair of turn-of-the-century fall front pants, graciously given to me by friend of the brand Jake Lacaillade. Available in a double darted version for roomier hips or smaller waist. These are best in a lighter 9 to 12 oz denim.

V413 - 6 Pocket Chore Coat
This jacket was born from the best thing I've ever bought - my 1950s Lee chore. Long before I managed to get my hands on one, I was obsessed with these, making recreations based on pictures and screenshots. Once I had the real thing, I was able to pore over the details, producing a pattern that exactly mirrors the jacket in question. These chore coats work best in a midweight fabric between 9 and 12 oz. Available in standard sizes 36-48.
V101 - Straight Leg Buckleback Jeans
These jeans are my version of a classic five pocket pair. With a pattern adapted from a perfect pair of Lee Carpenters and construction details straight from 40s, these jeans are easy to wear and will break in to fit your body. The buckleback allows for adjustments to the waist size, while the mid rise and loose fit make a perfect base for comfortable wear and vintage fades. Available in a darted yoke version for roomier hips or a smaller waist. Best in a heavier 12 to 14 oz denim.

V420 - 4 Button Chore Coat
The idea for this jacket started when I saw a furniture dealer wearing a perfect chore coat with a repeating apple print. After doing some research, I discovered that jacket was made by Dubbleware, a brand once based in Boston. After digging up every picture I could find to analyze the details, I patterned a reproduction from scratch, taking care to accurately reflect the details and features of the original, including a really interesting cuff design. These jackets work best in a light to mid weight fabric, anywhere from 8oz to 12oz. Available in standard sizes 36 - 48
