Description
The Worker Jacket, the spirit of the pea coat and utility combined
This handsome navy wool jacket combines the tradition of the pea coat with the functionality of the worker jacket. Its straight cut and square silhouette, enhanced by a wide collar, give it a sober, assertive look. Made from a thick wool cloth woven in France, it offers comforting warmth while remaining suitable for mid-season. Two large central patch pockets add character and practicality, making this piece as versatile as it is timeless. A clever blend of style and functionality, designed to last through the seasons.
Our wool Worker Jacket 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 is there
This wool sheet is made exclusively from old textiles. Once defibered, La filature du parc in Brassac, in the South of France, turns them into new spools of yarn. A way of breathing new life into a stock of clothes destined for destruction.
This unique process allows the reuse of the original garment colors. No dyes are added!
A price in all transparency
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 jacket in detail.
Recycled wool woven in France
Our recycled wool takes on the characteristics of a traditional wool sheet. Whether it is its soft touch or its thickness that makes the piece warm and comfortable, it meets many of our requirements, the first being quality. You can wear the wool jacket for a long time, the wool sheet won’t run out of steam anytime soon.
The weaving is done in Castres, at Pierre Calvet. A blend of recycled wool (70%) and recycled polyamide (25%) was chosen.. The rest is obtained from other fibers, already present in the fabrics before they are recycled.
Produce in small quantities, locally
We opt for local production, using local know-how. All our parts are produced in very small quantities in order to control our stock.
From the yarn to the fabric to the buttons, every stage in the making of this wool jacket is carried out in France and Portugal. This choice allows us to get to know the people who make our jackets personally.
A consigned wool jacket!
And if you don’t wear that wool jacket anymore, for whatever reason or age, we’ll buy it back from you. The deposit is set at 15% of the sale price. Cela évite de faire dormir une pièce dans un placard et qui lui offre une seconde vie.

A desire to change things
When we launched LATER…, we started from an observation: we don’t really know what we consume. Where do the materials come from? Where are they processed? In what conditions ? Where does our money go?
With LATER… we want to provide 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… , it 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.
