Description
A thick and comfortable overshirt
This piece has a hybrid shape between a shirt and a lumberjack overshirt and is suitable for all seasons. Inspired by pea coats, its thick wool sheet woven in France brings a comforting quality to this overshirt. Over a t-shirt, a shirt or a hoodie, it is a tasty mix of traditional codes and sportswear details. It remains more than ever timeless.
Our wool overshirt is 100% recycled
Why produce new materials when we know that 100,000 tons of clothes are thrown away every year? At LATER… we work with what exists.
We think of clothing differently. This starts with the wool sheet we use. It is obtained only from old textiles. Once defibered, La filature du parc in Brassac, in the South of France, makes new spools of yarn. This is a way to give new life to a stock of clothes destined to be destroyed.
This unique process allows to reuse the colors of the original clothes. No dye is added!
A transparent price
We believe that full transparency is a necessary condition for responsible consumption. The cost of materials, clothing but also logistics and wages, we explain the price of this overshirt in detail.
A recycled wool woven in France
Our recycled wool adopts the characteristics of a traditional wool sheet. From its soft feel to its thickness that makes the piece warm and comfortable, it meets many of our requirements, the first being quality. You can wear the Epure for a long time, the wool sheet is not ready to run out of steam.
The weaving is done in Castres, at Pierre Calvet. We chose a mixture of recycled wool (70%) and recycled polyamide (25%). The rest is obtained from other fibers, already present in the fabrics before they are recycled.
Produce in small quantities, locally
Logical continuation of the use of old textiles to realize our wool sheet, we make the choice of a close production, using local know-how. All our pieces are produced in very small quantities in order to control our stock as much as possible. From the thread to the fabric and the buttons, all the steps of the making of this overshirt are made in France and Portugal. This choice allows us to know personally the people who make our overshirts. We can thus build strong links with our partners but also ensure ourselves of the working conditions.
A returnable overshirt!
And if you don’t wear that shirt anymore, for whatever reason or age, we will buy it back from you. The deposit is set at 15% of the selling price. This avoids a piece sleeping in a closet and gives it a second life.

A desire to change things
When we launched Later…, we started from an observation: we don’t really know what we are consuming. Where do the materials come from? Where are they processed? In what conditions ? Where does our money go?
With Later… we want to bring full transparency. We want to allow the customer to understand what he is buying but, above all, to understand our approach, our choices and our way of producing.
Later… is a life project. It is the desire to give meaning to clothes, but also to the world of fashion. Getting as close as possible to our values, to what motivates us every day: respecting the environment, respecting people. For this, our pieces are entirely made from 100% recycled fabrics. We also rely on local know-how to offer quality, durable and timeless clothing.
