Field Jacket
Field Jacket
The jacket that started hundreds of messages.
Worn across years of Roughcut content, before it was ever available as a pattern.
The Story
This wasn't supposed to
become a pattern.
For years, this jacket got worn in Roughcut content, and people kept asking where it came from — eventually it became impossible to ignore. So it became one of the most detailed sewing patterns we've released.
The Journey
Years in the making,
before it was ever a pattern.
The Original
The Original Design
An early version of the jacket, worn long before it was ever drafted as a pattern. (Placeholder framing — exact year needs confirming.)

Two Ways To Build
Learn it properly,
or watch it come together.
Studio Tutorial
Beautifully naturally dyed fabric. A professional studio setting, filmed POV, with every step explained in full. Best if you want to learn the construction properly.
Sewing On The Go
A three-part cinematic travel series — watch the jacket come together while travelling across Southern England: Breamore House and the Miz Maze, Old Sarum, and Stonehenge. Less instruction, more inspiration.

Fabric Guide
What to cut it from.
Waxed Canvas
Creates a weatherproof, rugged jacket with a matte, worn-in finish from day one.
Duck Canvas
Creates a stiffer, structured jacket that breaks in and softens with wear.
Japanese Denim
Creates a heavier, indigo-rich jacket that fades and ages with every wear.
Mud-Dyed Fabric
Creates an earthy, naturally uneven tone — no two jackets look quite the same.
Military Fabric
Creates a utilitarian, no-nonsense jacket built the way surplus gear is built.
Vintage Blanket Wool
Creates a heavy, warm jacket with real character — best for cold-weather builds.
Hardware
What to source.
YKK Zips
Reliable heavy-duty zips that hold up to real use.
Rib Knit Cuffs & Collar
For a fitted cuff and collar finish, if you're building that version.
Thread
A strong core-spun or polyester thread suited to heavy fabric.
Needles
Size up for canvas, denim and wool — a standard machine needle will struggle.
Cord
For drawcords at the hem or hood, depending on your build.
Eyelets
For drawcord channels and any vented details.
Interfacing
Stabilises collars, cuffs and pocket facings before construction.
Sizing
Take these measurements first.
FAQ
Before you buy.
It's a detailed build with several construction techniques worth having some sewing experience for, but every step is explained in full in the handbook and tutorials — an ambitious beginner can build this.
No — the modular front, fly, hood, pocket and lining options mean you can build several genuinely different versions from the one pattern.
Not at all. Pick the combination that suits your build and skip the rest — nothing here is mandatory.
Yes — a full studio construction tutorial plus a separate travel-build series are both included.
Lining is optional and covered in the pattern — build it lined for colder weather or unlined for a lighter finish.
A4 and US Letter print-at-home PDFs, an A0 copyshop file, and layered sizing so you only print the size you need.
Not yet — this release is the men's/unisex block. A dedicated women's version is something we're considering for the future.
