Wabash fabric has a short but remarkable history. Emerging in the early 1900s when steam-powered cylinder printing technology allowed stripe patterns to be discharge-printed onto indigo cloth for the first time, it became the workwear fabric of choice for railroad workers and factory laborers who valued its ability to conceal dirt. Due to the complexity of the production process, true indigo Wabash fabric was manufactured for only around 30 years before the demands of mass production made it economically unviable, and by the mid-1930s it had all but disappeared.

The Flat Head’s Wabash Coverall combines the rugged practicality of vintage workwear with a carefully refined silhouette and a distinctive fabric treatment. Constructed from an original 10oz. denim woven on vintage shuttle looms, the fabric is finished with this iconic dotted stripe pattern through discharge printing, giving the jacket its characteristic Wabash appearance. The small white dots soften the overall look, while the deep indigo base and uneven texture of the denim promise plenty of character as the jacket ages.
