Lee 101 First Coat

The Lee 101 First Coat for autumn/winter ’11, seen here in black.

This traditional work-wear jacket from Lee 101 draws, as ever, on the brand’s wealth of experience in the manufacture of hard-wearing American clothing. Packed with practical features from the past, revived for the modern day, this hooded coat is an example of evolved and considered design.

The coat is constructed of two combining layers: a waterproof cotton shell that is fully lined in a checked, woven fabric; and a fully-detachable quilted, fleece-lined layer for additional protection against the elements. The jacket fastens with a zipper and press studs and has a drawstring hood which can be adjusted to combat the wind and rain.

Made from 100% cotton outer, with a cotton and acrylic blend lining, please wash cool
