91LJ Chore Jacket, Vintage Wear

All Aboard the Workwear Express! 🚂

Some jackets have been around long enough to earn a little respect. The Lee 91LJ Chore Jacket in Vintage Wear carries on a workwear tradition dating back to the 1920s, when Lee was making tough, practical clothing for America's railroad workers. A century later, this old favourite still looks mighty fine.

The jacket features the classic relaxed silhouette, four practical patch pockets and sturdy triple-needle stitching. A corduroy collar and warm red plaid lining add comfort and vintage charm, while antique brass buttons and tobacco-coloured stitching complete the old-school look.

Made from 78% cotton and 22% lyocell, the lightweight, non-stretch denim is softer than traditional heavyweight workwear. The light blue Vintage Wear wash gives it that nicely worn-in appearance without having to spend twenty years working on the railroad.

Throw it over a sweatshirt, pair it with your favourite jeans and you're ready for the workshop, the open road or a lazy Sunday afternoon. No actual chores required, partner.

🚂 The Legend of Lee's Loco Jacket

The story of the Lee 91-J Chore Jacket began in the 1920s. Originally designed for railroad workers, it earned the nickname "Loco Jacket" from the locomotives its wearers worked around.

Its distinctive pockets were designed to carry a pocket watch, pens and railroad timetables. Reinforced stitching and durable denim made it a dependable companion for long working days. In 1925, Lee introduced its innovative Jelt Denim, combining durability with a relatively lightweight feel.

The 91-J became one of Lee's most enduring workwear classics, with a design that remained largely unchanged for decades. The 91LJ continues that heritage with its distinctive lining and corduroy collar. The steam trains may be mostly gone, but this jacket is still right on track!
