Description

The Sand Japanese Canvas Richard Army Overshirt by Fortela is inspired by military-style field shirt jackets worn by European Army personnel in WWII, with a refined fit and detailing. This Overshirt is made from a heavyweight 14 oz. Japanese Canvas that is garment-dyed and enzyme-washed for an authentic vintage aesthetic, texture, and drape in an iconic army cloth known for its durability and wearability, which will continue to age. This garment is suited for any new-classic enthusiast with an improved aesthetic and detailing in an authentic up-production inspired by the timeless battle-tested original, known for its uniform dress functionality. Derived from Alessandro Squarzi's famous archives, it features signature elements such as a point camp collar, gunmetal reproduction military star buttons for the front placket, flap-front gusseted patch chest pockets, along with side-seam lower hand pockets for comfort and convenience. Drawing inspiration from heritage workshop productions and evolving vintage styles, this cleanly designed shirt jacket has a generous fit and a straight hem for layering. It is completed with felled seams, bartack reinforcements, and single and double-needle construction throughout. The Sand Canvas Richard Army Overshirt will become that style-forward heritage hallmark informed by militaria and workwear with a modern fit, designed for the man who balances his current fashion with old-world provenance.
