Taylor Stitch Workhorse Jacket

When you think of a jacket that’s designed to take on everything the day throws at you, the Taylor Stitch Workhorse Jacket ($228) immediately comes to mind. It’s a piece that’s crafted to not just endure, but to get better with age, earning character and rugged good looks with every wear. Here at The Coolector, we’re always on the lookout for gear that blends form and function, and the Workhorse Jacket does just that—and then some.

True to its name, the Workhorse Jacket is a tough-as-nails workwear staple that’s ready for whatever you can throw at it. It’s built from custom-loomed Chipped Canvas, which is crafted from thick, 12.5-oz 100% organic cotton. Double-dyed and stonewashed, the canvas has that perfectly broken-in look and feel from day one. Taylor Stitch has made sure that this isn’t just another jacket; it’s a piece that’s purpose-built to tackle your to-do list, whether you’re working in the yard, wrenching on your bike, or just grabbing a cold one at your local dive.

The details are what make this jacket stand out from the pack. Starting with the 8.5-oz organic cotton corduroy on the collar and inside cuffs, this jacket hits the sweet spot between comfort and durability. The bi-swing action back allows for a full range of motion, so whether you’re stacking wood or reaching for a tool, you’re not restricted. And let’s not forget about those engineer-style adjustable snap cuffs, which make sure the sleeves stay exactly where you want them.

Inside, you’ll find a 7-oz organic cotton brushed pocket lining that makes slipping your hands into the pockets feel like a luxury, and a 1.5-oz recycled nylon lining that keeps things light while adding an extra layer of insulation. The diamond quilt lining and recycled polyester fill add warmth without the bulk, so it’s perfect for layering or wearing solo when the temperatures start to dip. There’s a YKK zipper at the centre front, hidden beneath a snap storm front that keeps the wind at bay, and those tough-as-nails custom snaps make sure that nothing comes undone unless you want it to.

The Workhorse Jacket has plenty of pocket space, with two lower patch hand warmer pockets for chilly mornings, and an internal welt pocket at chest height that’s perfect for stashing essentials. It’s crafted with the kind of quality that’s synonymous with Taylor Stitch, and we can’t help but appreciate the way it balances timeless design with everyday functionality. This is the kind of jacket that’ll stay in your heavy rotation for years to come, long after the rest of your workwear has been retired.

For those who want gear that looks good, feels great, and isn’t afraid to put in the work, the Taylor Stitch Workhorse Jacket is one piece that absolutely delivers.
