i'm a bigger dude in the market for a traditional canvas style work jacket. i've tried carhartt, but i could never get a good fit (it was always super boxy and short.)

any recommendations? i'd like something in a grey or green, as i scooped up a really nice duck canvas RL jacket thrifting recently.

as far as sizing, i wear a normal fitting xl.

Look for the Stronghold jacket. That's another great choice. Post O'Alls has a couple and there was the EG x Levis duck jacket that Daiki Suzuki designed a couple of seasons ago that was amazing.
