Carhartt WIP has long been known for reworking utilitarian classics with modern streetwear sensibilities, and the new Lowis Houndstooth Chore Coat is no exception. This piece takes the rugged DNA of a workwear staple and elevates it with refined fabric choices and subtle design cues that bridge tradition with contemporary style.

Crafted from a heavyweight poly-wool blend, the coat features an allover houndstooth pattern that instantly sets it apart from more conventional outerwear. Its diamond-quilted lining ensures warmth through colder months, while the corduroy top collar adds a tactile contrast that nods to heritage workwear. Four front pockets provide functional storage, including one with a buttoned flap for added security, making it both practical for everyday wear and sophisticated enough to stand out in urban settings.

Details like adjustable cuffs, personalized buttons, and an artificial leather Square Label complete the design, reinforcing Carhartt WIP’s balance of durability and understated style. The coat’s Vitola Heather colorway allows it to pair easily with both tailored and casual looks, making it a versatile addition to any fall and winter rotation. At $398, the Lowis Chore Coat is not only an investment in craftsmanship but also in timeless style, offering a unique fusion of utility, warmth, and sharp visual identity.
