Limited Edition Chore Coat

There’s been a lot of Rivay in my everyday rotation, and I've recently noticed just how often I reach for the brand. The one thing I was looking for that wasn't in the line was a chore coat — a foundational piece in my closet. I thought Rivay might want to team up to create one, incorporating all the attention to detail that makes the brand so great. With that inspiration, we’ve created what we believe is the perfect chore coat, in an excellent shade of Rivay Racing Green.

A light jacket is the most essential piece of my wardrobe. With the cool mornings and evenings in California, I wear them almost daily. To me, a chore jacket feels like a suit of armor: it has pockets for most things you need to carry, it adds that little extra something every outfit needs, and it helps you feel your best. Rooted in workwear, chore coats bring a sense of effort and purpose to anything we do — even if it’s just catching a flight for a fishing trip or an expedition abroad. It’s an essential that everyone should have in their closet, even if the only adventure it sees is a school drop-off.

When we considered who would best embody this jacket, Jon, Katie, and I immediately thought of our friend Jake Lacy. He has played numerous roles as an actor, but in real life, he is a dad, a frequent traveler, and an aesthete with an obsession for details. We couldn’t think of anyone better to bring our new jacket to life — we only wish we looked as cool in it as he does.
