Shacket with hood - checked pattern, button placket and two chest pockets

Hooded shirt jacket - plaid for outdoors, with head covering included

A long-sleeved plaid shirt with a soft hood attached to a classic Kent collar. It buttons all the way down, has two chest pockets and cuffs that can be fastened more tightly at the wrist. Warm enough for spring and autumn without becoming a jacket.

Why choose a hooded shirt jacket?

You can quickly throw on a flannel, quickly pull up a hood, and on most days you need both. Here, the plaid pattern and button placket remain, with the hood added for the walk from the car to the door. Worn over a shirt and under a coat, it doesn't add bulk.

• Attached hood: lies flat against the collar and goes up as soon as the wind changes.
• Plaid pattern: casual with jeans, yet still neat when tucked into trousers.
• Two chest pockets: keys, phone or a folded note stay within easy reach.
• Button cuffs: roll up the sleeves or fasten them at the wrist, depending on the time of day.
• Shape-retaining fabric: breathable, soft and returns to shape after washing.

One piece for the school run, the hardware store and an evening on the sofa.

Wear it open over a shirt in April, and button it all the way up in October. The fabric tolerates a normal machine wash and comes out with so few wrinkles that ironing is optional. Hang it on a hook instead of folding it, and the hood will retain its shape.
