Bedford Jacket - Natural Chino Twill

The Bedford Jacket exemplifies the Engineered Garments design ethos. Sitting somewhere between chore coat and blazer, it combines workwear and classic American sportswear into something that’s undeniably EG.

Cut in a relaxed, boxy shape not too dissimilar to what you’d see from Bill Cunningham’s beloved French worker jacket, it’s the infusion of blazer DNA that's so genius. The whole “boardroom to the bar” thing is a bit of a cliché but it’s actually perfect for this jacket.

Utility comes from the four patch pockets on the body—who even needs to carry a bag? There’s reinforcement around all of the high-stress areas to ensure it'll outlast everything else in your wardrobe. This untreated 'natural' flat twill cotton has the same speckled appearance you might remember from the calico tote bags or artist smocks from your childhood.
