You can now grab a Desert Chore Coat at Brass Tacks Provisions in Oklahoma City. Awesome store run by awesome people, bringing in great brands and products - mostly all American made. Even though it hasn’t amounted to much in terms of dollars yet, it’s so rewarding to see something we designed, sourced all the materials, made from scratch in Phoenix, being sold in a beautiful retail store like this. Thankful to everyone’s that’s ordered one, and can’t wait to make more next year and keep making them better.

Potentially the last chore coat you’ll ever need

Indigo Herringbone Chore Coat 🫡

The western wear industry is a complex space filled with dichotomies. It seems like to many, not all, but many consumers in it - something being “cheap”, is considered to be more “true cowboy”. I get comments and replies often that simply because our shirts are expensive (relative to many shirts in the space), it’s not for a real cowboys, it’s fake, people tell me no one will ever wear it, etc. It’s a weird dichotomy. I could make our shirt in China - 100% in China - sell it for $60 with a better margin, make more money, and it would be more widely accepted as authentic. For real cowboys. My company would probably be 10x the size it is today. And I’d have a significantly better chance of getting into the big western retailers like Boot Barn. It sucks 😆 But we fight on

The houndstooth pattern dates back to 18th century Scotland. Apparently was originally made / worn by Shepards. People thought the little broken check looked like a dogs tooth - so it eventually got the name houndstooth. It was basically OG scottish workwear. Then in the early 20th century, high end tailors and fashion brands started using it. And now we often associate it with super nice coats, pants, etc. Often woven with wool. We made it into a western shirt. Ours is 100% cotton. And it feels awesome.
