The Common Coat is Tender’s first lined and faced revere jacket. Rather than aping a fully tailored garment, the manufacture remains true to the idea of understandable construction, with a single side seam joining the body and sleeve, like a shirt or work jacket.

Common coats were in fact worn for work, a standard garment which would often move from Sunday best to weekday labour as it began to show its age.The front is fastened with two buttons, and large, simple patch pockets are sewn through the fronts and lining at hand height.

Single and a half breasted jackets are cut single breasted but buttoned with a slightly wider wrap and a pair of inside bearer buttons.
