The Travail Overshirt draws inspiration from a vintage French workwear jacket discovered at a Parisian market. Captivated by its unusual silhouette and contemporary appeal, Universal Works has retained the distinctive darting and relaxed fit of the original, reimagining it as an overshirt with a curved, shirt-style hem. Lower patch pockets and thoughtful shaping define its character. Named after the French word for 'work', this piece merges modern sensibility with classic utilitarian design—a versatile layer that bridges past and present.
