What's the difference between a shacket and a chore jacket?
Shackets — shirt-jacket hybrids. Heavier than a button-down, lighter than a chore jacket. Designed to look like an oversized shirt that functions as a light jacket — relaxed fit, shirt-style collar, button front. Best for casual layering over tees and weekend wear. Chore jackets — workwear-inspired. Structured front pockets (typically 3-4 patch pockets), heavier fabric (cotton twill or canvas), relaxed but more structured cut than a shacket. Best for elevated casual layered over button-downs.
