I have an apolis indigo chore coat and it is one of my favorite go to pieces. I'll have to post s picture of it sometime soon as I've put some miles on it. This led me to search out their CPO. I was unsure how they would work in my rotation but just snatched a badass new one for $46 shipped off eBay! I also have some chinos I got off GILT a few months are good cut that is in between G slim and straight. I prefer G slim but these are nice.

For anyone that has the indigo wool chore coat (or any other indigo wool items from Apolis); how badly does it dry bleed? I'd tend to be wearing chambrays/ocbd and am a bit wary. Would it be worth soaking the jacket prior?

I've had mine for about 2 years and I don't remember any transfer. I'll post some pictures later. Mine has a decent fade going.

Thanks. This was my final purchase before the 90-day no spend. Was a bit hasty but really excited now to try it out!

Love that jacket! Just can't buy one as I have enough Filsons.

Apolis wool CPO is now in olive. If I hadn't already ordered a greenish one from Gustin, it would be mine.

cancel or return the G one and get the Apolis one.

How warm is it, i assume you layer it with a button up or just a plain tee? never owned a CPO but these seem to be on sale at a few places with the winter season ending and wasn't sure if it would be ok for wearing now up into the spring months.

Well, it's Melton wool, so if you don't mind the itchy, you can probably go with just a tee under it. I'll usually toss it on over a henley, a thermal or a button-down/tee combo. It's a good layer in the winter and I bought mine sized up so I can run it as a shirt-jack in the fall/spring. Temps higher than 50F/10C and it might get a little warm. YMMV.
