In the overall scheme of shirt-jackets, the Eagle Pine from KAVU is definitely more jacket than shirt. For starters, it's lined with a deliciously soft and warm high-pile sherpa fleece, with quilted taffeta lining in the sleeves. It also features a more jackety zip front and button neck, with jersey-lined handwarmer pockets for frosty mornings. The fit is relaxed – after all, you're going to be layering it over other stuff – and the hem is slightly curved for a casual look. The cuffs are adjustable, plus you've also got two useful chest pockets
Body Lining: 100% polyester high pile sherpa fleece

Now here’s an origin story for you. Back in the early nineties, fishing boat skipper Barry Barr was fed up with wearing cheap trucker caps that got snatched off his head in storms, never to be seen again. He decided to make a super-durable cap that wouldn’t blow off whatever the weather, and he did it by stitching the webbing material from a Teva sandal all the way around the crown. Turned out his ‘Strapcap’ was a hit, and KAVU was born.
From humble beginnings flogging Strapcaps out of the boot of his car in Seattle, Barry’s since expanded to produce a whole array of durable outdoor kit with a laid-back, van-lifer vibe. The KAVU range takes in everything from sling bags to swim shorts, and while they’re serious about producing great gear that’s made to last, they’re also not afraid to have a laugh. Their prints are bold, playful, and in some cases so loud that they’ll take some considerable chutzpah to carry off – but that’s what makes them so much fun.
