Revolution Utility Shirt

This durable overshirt, Revolution, is made from heavy organic cotton corduroy with 8 ribs, offering a soft and velvety surface. The shirt features characteristic square utility pockets on the chest, a front with tone-on-tone buttons, and adjustable cuffs. A loop at the collar makes it easy to store the shirt, and for added comfort, it is constructed with a traditional double-layered back with a box pleat, providing you with more freedom of movement. Wear it as a warm shirt in everyday life during the cold season or pair it with a printed t-shirt or sweatshirt for a casual look. Over the decades, corduroy has been valued for its durability and cool appearance. The fabric originated with the ancient Egyptians and was considered a fabric for the upper class. In the 18th century, corduroy descended in the social hierarchy when British textile manufacturers developed the characteristic ribs that transformed it into the corduroy we know today. The fabric quickly became favored by teachers and academics, and as corduroy was regarded as very robust, it gained industrial popularity as a material for men's workwear after the revolution. In the 1970s, corduroy achieved status as a fashion statement, an anti-establishment symbol of a cool worker, and this status remains relevant today.
