My friends, sometimes, there’s no getting around it: Even on the hottest summer days, you still might find yourself in need of, say, one of the best chore jackets as the sun goes down.

Be it an evening bonfire, a sunset beach walk or a camping trek up into the mountains, you’d be surprised at how handy a rugged chore jacket can be, particularly one that’s made in America (and made the right way, at that). And that, folks, is where American Giant — one of the best made-in-America style brands, assuredly, factors into the equation with one of the best chore jackets for men.

Hopefully, you recognize American Giant from making one of the best zip hoodies out there, and the brand has also successfully tried its hand at stylish T-shirts, durable work pants and even some of the best blue jeans. Of course, they do it all right here in the U.S. of A., and the American Giant Roughneck Chore Jacket looks to carry on that legacy in handsome, rugged and durable fashion.

The American Giant Roughneck Chore Jacket takes its cues from the Roughneck line of pants from the brand, and it’s crafted from a 9.5oz. cotton-canvas and spandex blend in El Paso, Texas. That means it’s got some stretch and supple movement to it, but it’s still comfortable enough to wear over a classic American Giant T-shirt on cool summer and early fall nights.

The American Giant Roughneck Chore Jacket is also garment-dyed for added softness, and finished with timeless chore coat touches via three patch pockets to handle your everyday carry essentials. And to suit plenty of stylish combinations, this chore jacket comes in three versatile, rich colors (the Deep Olive shade very well might be my favorite).

And true to form, American Giant has priced your new favorite chore jacket at a very agreeable $198. What’s not to love about that? If you end up adding the American Giant Roughneck Chore Jacket to your rotation, let me know in the comments below. Now, let’s layer up and get out there the rest of this summer.
