Product Information

Full details

The ARKET Oversized Overshirt is designed for adults seeking a durable, utility-inspired layer that transitions easily between casual and semi-structured settings. Crafted from brushed cotton twill, this garment provides the rugged comfort of classic French workwear with a modern, relaxed silhouette. While the piece excels as a versatile transitional jacket or heavy shirt, potential users should note that the intentionally boxy, oversized fit requires careful size selection to achieve the desired drape.

FAQs

Is the material waterproof?

No, this is made of 100% cotton and is not treated for water resistance.

Can this be worn as a primary shirt?

Yes, it is designed to function as both an overshirt layer or a standard shirt depending on your preference.

How does the sizing run?

The product features an oversized, boxy fit; for a more standard look, you may want to size down.

What is the best way to iron this?

Use a medium heat setting on your iron, ideally while the fabric is slightly damp, to remove creases.

Does the fabric stretch?

Cotton twill has minimal natural stretch, so it is designed to hold its shape over time.

Where should I store this garment?

Store on a sturdy hanger in a cool, dry place to prevent the shoulders from losing their shape.

Troubleshooting

Fabric feels stiffer after washing

Ensure you are using a gentle cycle and consider using a small amount of fabric softener.

Buttons feel loose after frequent wear

Regularly check the stitching on buttons and reinforce with standard thread if necessary.

Garment seems too large upon arrival

The oversized fit is intentional; try styling it layered over a mid-weight sweater to fill the silhouette.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable brushed cotton construction
  • Versatile layering piece for multiple seasons
  • Functional pocket storage layout
  • Classic workwear-inspired design
  • Comfortable relaxed fit

Cons

  • Oversized fit may be too large for some preferences
  • Requires careful temperature management when washing to prevent shrinkage

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maintain the integrity of the brushed cotton, wash the overshirt in cold water on a gentle cycle. Avoid high-heat tumble drying, as this can lead to fabric stiffening or unwanted shrinkage. It is recommended to air dry the garment on a hanger to preserve the oversized structure. Because of the boxy fit, check the size chart carefully; if you prefer a less voluminous look, you might consider sizing down from your standard fit.
