Is this jacket warm enough for winter?

No. It is a lightweight cotton twill layer meant for cool mornings and mild days. In cold weather you would wear it over a sweater or under a heavier coat.

How does it compare with a canvas chore coat?

It is lighter and softer than traditional duck canvas chore coats, so it moves more freely and feels broken-in sooner. It gives up stiffness, warmth and abrasion resistance in return.

Will the color fade or rub off?

Overdyed cotton is expected to fade gradually with washing and wear, which builds the lived-in look. When new, the dye can transfer onto light-colored shirts, seats or bags, so pair it carefully at first.

100% cotton twill, overdyed for depth of color. There is no synthetic insulation or weatherproof membrane.

How should I care for it?

Wash cold and line dry to limit shrinkage and slow the fading. Wash it separately for the first few cycles to keep the overdye from bleeding onto other clothes.
