The Friday Find: This USA-Made Devium Slub Twill Overshirt is a Spring Layering Staple

Best overshirts for men to wear this spring.

As you scour the market for the best menswear essentials, especially reliable pieces you can rock now and into the start of early summer, perhaps your focus remains on your outerwear or your top half — as wise a place as any as you look for rugged menswear with a versatile edge.

And perhaps you’ve come across USA-made menswear from Devium a time or two in this search — they’re a newfound favorite brand of yours truly across the past year, with Americana-inspired style roots (the brand was founded on Flag Day over a decade ago, at any rate), and with durability and style points to burn in every stitch.

Of course, that makes ’em a fine choice for our ongoing Friday Find series, where we dive into unheralded brands doing things the right way, and in this case, the American-made way with selections like the Devium Draftsman Twill Slub Overshirt.

As wearable now atop a pocket tee as it was essential alongside a thermal henley in the frigid months, one of the best shirt jackets for men is going to offer the right mix of form and function just about anywhere, from the job site to the barstool of your favorite neighborhood corner dive.

The handsome and utterly classic Devium Draftsman Twill Slub Overshirt is billed by the California brand as “a year-round workhorse,” with custom 100 percent heavyweight stretch twill construction guaranteed by, well, the brand’s lifetime guarantee. Available in four stylish colors (including crisp Academy Blue and my personal favorite, Old Moss Green), the functionality is ramped up with chest box-pleated pockets big enough to hold a can of beer.

The Devium Draftsman Twill Slub Overshirt is carefully considered every step of the way, right down to its custom 16L cat’s eye buttons and vintage-style slub twill fabrication. For throwing on at a moment’s notice with selvedge denim and a pocket tee or even garment-washed stretch chinos and your favorite pair of leather boots, there’s not much more essential in matters of utility, durability and rugged appeal than a layering piece like the Devium Draftsman Twill Slub Overshirt this spring. Act accordingly as you plot your next seasonal menswear move, my friends.
