1960s Manly Man Shacket 40/Medium

Step into the rugged style of the late 1960s with this authentic vintage shacket, a true blend of function and fashion. Originating between 1965 and 1969, this piece captures the working man's outerwear of the era, sturdy, dependable, and effortlessly cool.

Crafted in a classic plaid pattern, it straddles the line between a shirt and a jacket, a style now known as the shacket. Designed to be worn over layers, it features button fastening down the front, combining easy wear with timeless appeal.

The collar and cuffs are lined in smooth black satiny nylon, adding a touch of comfort and refinement to this otherwise utilitarian piece, a detail often found in outerwear of the time to ease friction and extend wearability.

Whether you're layering it for fall or styling it as a statement piece, this 1960s shacket offers a perfect nod to the heritage of American workwear, with all the functionality of a modern classic.
