Watermelon UHF / LL Bean Chore / Freenote slub chinos / muck boots / lotta rain today

Had really been struggling to fill out this vintage Bean chore coat — but the UHF does the trick. Gives the coat structure too so it’s less of a potato sack

1955 14oz (probably due for a hem? waiting for the first wash before I make the call)

todd snyder washed relaxed denim
new butterscotch lbc rough out chelsea boots

While I love the overdyed cpo, I find it difficult (because of my coloring, maybe?) to style it casually. Sometimes it feels like too bold of a piece for my wardrobe, but I know that the more I wear it, the more character and softness will develop.

Throwing it on here with a beater beer shirt, Todd Snyder relaxed washed denim, and some Wolverine 1000 milers.

It’s a hit! XXXXL via Gosport — thanks Josh for the outstanding customer service. I asked for the shortest 4XL available and the guys delivered.

Plan is to wear this CPO as a chore coat and outer layer. Mission accomplished! Plenty of room for a UHF or hoodie and mobility for the manual labor (i volunteer in native plant restoration) that I want to do in it — but still fitted enough to wear out and look nice.

Thanks everyone for their observations and analysis. Really helped to dial this in. And I’m 6’2” 215lbs, if that helps anyone making a similar call.

Cheesin’ on the untucked today! I’ve tried wearing this same purple thermal with the self edge collab cpo — kinda uncomfortable as the baggy undershirt has too much material for the slimmer cpo arm opening.

This is just way more user friendly for layering

Can only speak for myself, but I’m between the XXXL (same measurements as my collab CPO — which is perfect over a t shirt, if a bit tight on the arms, and just big enough to layer comfortably over a thinner long sleeve) and the XXXXL, where I prefer the chest measurement but am unsure about the longer length.

Tough call! I’m in coastal Southern California and probably won’t be wanting to layer over a flannel — so I’ll probably stick with XXXL (also my size in the watermelon!). Goal is to use this for outdoorsy work à la @Denimhead-0

(also - this is my first post! shoutout to the community here. the info has been crucial in finding a few pieces (aforementioned UHF and the CPO, along with a 1955 14oz that fits me better than anything I’ve ever worn) that are just treasures of my wardrobe and hopefully the stuff my young kids will remember me wearing when they think of me and their childhood

@kojimastreets aw cheers man, thanks! honestly there’s pros/cons to the size up — it’s all about what you want from the piece. if I stayed my usual size, it’d still be sweet - just a more fitted, dressier, and honestly my more preferred length. Maybe that’s where yours’ landed?

but what I wanted was an outdoor ready iron heart carhartt crusher - and that’s what I got!

@Northman nice hit on the 3XL!! I scored the SP this morning and requested a shorter length from the guys. I’m a big ol’ powerlifter and figured I’d risk a larger fit — and an exchange if it’s silly big
