Restocked: An Icon of French Workwear

50 Things to Do Before You Die episode 2 is live, the best treehouse rentals on AirBnb, and more…

The Le Mont St Michel Chore Jacket dates back to 1913. Originally called a “Breton work jacket,” it was built for farmers and tradesmen in northern France. Since then, surprisingly little about it has changed. Compare a century-old example from a vintage shop with one made today, and you’ll notice the same ultra-durable, French-made moleskin—a soft, breathable cotton woven so tightly it naturally repels light rain. Each label is still hand-numbered next to a line for your name, so you don’t lose your coat during your shift. Restocks like this one sell out quickly, so now’s your chance to grab one for fall and put it to work.

If we could only pick one pant to cover our work hours, weekends, and travel days, it’d be the 72-Hour Merino 5-Pocket Pant—a modern essential meant to replace denim and chinos first, and to do more when the day demands it. Our team behind Proof cut them like our favorite jeans and custom-designed the merino fabric for stealthy high performance without an overly technical feel. The temperature-regulating, odor-resisting, moisture-wicking powers of merino wool run on autopilot, keeping you comfortable and looking sharp no matter where your plans (or non-plans) take you.

On this episode of 50 Things to Do Before You Die, host Dean Petty heads to Telluride, Colorado to take on Wilson Peak, one of Colorado's iconic 14ers. Guided through a demanding Class 3 and 4 climb, one that lasts through day and night, and consists of steep scrambling and harnessed climbing, Dean pushes through the technical terrain to reach the 14,021-foot summit. Watch the episode to learn more about how to navigate Wilson Peak, and see Dean earn a view unlike anything he’s experienced before—high above Colorado’s rugged peaks.
