While it’s safe to say Patagonia is the industry leader in crafting apparel that blends sustainable manufacturing and top-shelf performance into wearable designs built for everyday, observers would be remiss not to acknowledge surf-influenced Finisterre is hot on the brand’s heels.

To that end, Britain’s answer to Patagonia just released an overshirt that rivals Patagonia for responsible and technical construction — and frankly bests it in style.

Wear it anywhere

The Rockall Quilted Overshirt is the ideal insulated layer for fall and winter; it’s cozy without being bulky, and its laidback, quilted design is appropriate for almost every environment.

Finisterre’s take on the versatile shacket has a lot more going for it than just good looks, though.

Like Patagonia’s insulated shirt/jacket offerings, pop the hood on this Finisterre and you’ll find tons of sustainably minded materials, plus made-to-last construction.

Constructed with 100 percent organic cotton corduroy, the face fabric is available in Navy and Chestnut, two of fall’s richest colorways that lend a grounded, elegant air to this overshirt.

The lining continues the brand’s commitment to organic materials, making use of 100 percent organic cotton in a smooth finish.

Stuffed inside that warm and snug organic sandwich is 100 percent recycled insulation, which keeps things cozy on chilly days.

Hidden pockets in the side seams and an interior drop pocket provide functional storage without adding bulk, and the quilted pattern adds a touch of elevated design that makes this a hell of a lot cooler than your boring old flannel.

If you’re a fan of Patagonia’s commitment to responsible apparel but find its aesthetic lacking, Finisterre’s overshirt could be your new favorite layer.

Availability and pricing

The Rockall Quilted Overshirt is available now on Finisterre’s official website, retailing for $225.
