The UK Made Nell Overshirt in Brown Check is the Nell you already know, made in our new woven check. The check is 100% cotton and woven into the cloth rather than printed on. It's then waxed, coated, smoothed and pre-shrunk here in the UK, which makes it water resistant and gives it a clean, hard-wearing finish.

We cut every Nell asymmetrically, so the check runs in different directions from panel to panel and no two come out the same. The fit is oversized and boxy with a slight crop, with five pockets, corozo nut buttons and adjustable cuffs. Add the matching Brown Check Detachable Hood and you've got two jackets in one. It also sits well with anything from Moleskin at the Mill.

Key Features:

  • 100% cotton woven check, finished in the UK
  • Water resistant
  • Cut asymmetrically, so every piece is unique
  • Oversized, boxy fit with a slight crop
  • Five-pocket design
  • Corozo nut buttons
  • Adjustable cuffs
  • Pairs with the matching Brown Check Detachable Hood
  • Made in the UK by a team paid the Real Living Wage

Our Nell Jacket has been designed to fit boxy and oversized with a slight crop.

Fit Guide A relaxed, boxy fit with a slight crop — designed to sit at the hip with room through the chest and shoulders. Best worn as a layer over a hoodie

Between Sizes? We've made the chest and shoulders roomy, so you won't notice much difference there between sizes — focus on the length. Size down for a more cropped fit, size up for a longer one.

 Size UK Length
(NP to hem)
Chest (pit to pit) Shoulder Length  Sleeve Length 
XS 6 - 10  64cm 66cm  19cm 52cm
S 10 - 14  66cm 68.5cm  19.5cm 55cm
M 14 - 16  69.5cm 70.5cm  20cm 58cm
L 16 - 18  72.5cm 72.5cm  20cm 62cm
XL 18 - 20  74cm 75cm  20.5cm 65cm
XXL 20 - 22  76cm 76cm 21cm 68cm

 

How to find your size

We've kept our sizing straightforward - just measure yourself or your favourite jacket and match it to the chart

Chest (pit to pit) - Lay a jacket that fits you well flat on a table. Measure straight across from armpit to armpit. This is your most important measurement.

Shoulder - Measure from where your shoulder seam sits at the neck straight across to where your shoulder ends.

Sleeve Length - Measure from the shoulder seam down to where you want the cuff to sit (we measure to the wrist bone).

Between sizes? If you're on the cusp, think about how you want to wear it. Going for a relaxed fit or planning to layer underneath? Size up. Want it more fitted? Stick with your usual size.

Still not sure? Drop us a message and we'll help you out.

The best jacket I ever purchased

The fabric and the fit of the Nell overshirt are awesome (non to mention the color). I like the boxy cut, its suits everything with style. It is a real deal for the mid season and I can't wait for the temperature going down in Marseille. I added the hood to make it complete.

I love it!

I like how it fits and also love the pattern. Amazing jacket!

Benga Larsson (Capital Region, Denmark)
Very nice but not water resistant

I really like the shirt, its design, pockets, colour and everything. It's absolutely not water resistant, a light shower and you are wet through the fabric, I think it's misleading to sell it a water resistant jacket.

Excellent coat

Really happy with it but I didn’t find my coupon for a discount until after I had already pushed purchase. lol

S
Stephanie

Love it! The colour/print is so unique, have gotten quite a few compliments from strangers! I sized up to wear with oversized hoodies. Maybe an XS would have worked as well, but no regrets here!

Nell Overshirt Blue Ink

Love this jacket! The colors and the fit are amazing. I got a size S and it fits me perfectly. I’m 1.72 m tall and the sleeve length is great too (I’d seen in other reviews that this seemed to be an issue for a lot of people).

S
Sam Heath (England, United Kingdom)
Great Jacket

Really pleased with this. The khaki is a lovely colour and the fit is stylish (although very boxy as others have said). It hangs away from the body a fair bit so perfect for layering. Works well in the rain too with water beading off a little.

Nancy Entwistle (England, United Kingdom)
Fabulous boxy jacket

Lovely jacket, well made and very pleased with it so far. As per other reviews the sleeves are a little on the short side, however, not enough to warrant sending it back. The size guidance is very helpful. So happy to buy a British brand, made here in Manchester and responsibly sourced materials.

Great jacket! I’m completely chuffed with it :)

Great jacket with some small issues

Really enjoying the jacket although the jacket came with several loose threads something i thought might have been picked up before being sent out

F
Filip

I ordered an M and I’m 5’9 and broad shouldered and the sizing was correct but just a fair warning that it is really really boxy. The length was great but I can probably fit 2 coats or a small child in between myself and the jacket. The buttons for the sleeves just pop out so that’s kinda pointless, and the 2nd button is far too narrow to ever close. The coat hook is also way too small and the pockets are set a little too far back. But these are just minor personal niggles, it’s still a really sick jacket.

Great Customer Service

Just got my Nell overshirt, I’m 6 feet 200lbs with somewhat long arms and the large just wasn’t fitting right in the arms. Team was super helpful and easy to exchange. XL fits well. I was worried body would be too baggy but proportions are great.

Perfect!!!

Purchased in size Large, the fit and styling is perfect! Quality feels great and this really feels like a piece made to list. Great for layering in cooler and rainy weather

Disappointed

Ordered a jacket for my son. He opened it on Christmas Day and one of the buttons was hanging off and another two were loose. He had to re sew 3 buttons. Just thought it would have been checked before it was sent out.

Arms too short

Very nice light jacket, nice colour. The arms are too short for me though! Never have this problem with other clothes. Gonna return it :(

Nell Overshirt - Black

It’s a great jacket! I spent a day in the rain wearing it, and it kept me dry the whole time. The fit is nice and comfortable. I would recommend sizing up for extra coziness when wearing multiple layers, as this jacket isn’t very warm on its own.

Ripstop studio pants are crazy good

My review will be simple. That's the best pair of pants I've ever owned. The great surprise was the adjustable integrated belt, smart, minimal, very clean. I just have one regret, I can't afford buying all the colorways but I really wish I could

I love it so much!

I had this overshirt on my radar for a little while, and when I saw this chartreuse colour, I jumped on it! I was not sure about the size (I'm 1.65 and size 8-10), I Ordered the size xs, which is perfection. The colour is even better in real life, the lenght, the boxy cut, everything is as I hoped it would be. It's very well finished, with this stylish light rigidity... really I love it so much!

Wonderful

Love my khaki shower proof jacket. It is so stylish.

Water Resistant

Water-resistant means that the material or product can resist the penetration of water to some degree, but not entirely. It can withstand light rain or water splashes for a short time, but prolonged exposure to water or heavy rain can seep through the material.

Reproofable

This product can be reproofed using a suitable spray in order to make the product water resistant again and ensure it's longevity. We reccomend doing this every few months or after any particularly heavy downpours.

Free From Forever Chemicals

Forever chemicals, also known as PFAS (Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances), are synthetic compounds commonly used in waterproofing that persist indefinitely in the environment.
While they're effective at repelling water, these chemicals accumulate in soil, water systems, and living organisms, causing long-term environmental damage and potential health risks.

Waxed cotton offers several unique advantages: it's biodegradable, repairable, ages beautifully with a unique patina, and can be maintained indefinitely through reproofing. Unlike synthetic materials that might end up in landfills when their waterproofing fails, waxed cotton gets better with age and proper care.

Water-resistant and waterproof are terms used to describe how well a material or product can resist water. The main difference between the two is the level of protection they offer against water.

Water-resistant means that the material or product can resist the penetration of water to some degree, but not entirely. It can withstand light rain or water splashes for a short time, but prolonged exposure to water or heavy rain can seep through the material and damage the contents of the item.

Waterproof, on the other hand, means that the material or product is entirely impervious to water and will not allow any water to penetrate. It is designed to withstand heavy rain, submersion in water, or other harsh weather conditions without allowing any water to seep through.
