Chore Coat Recommendations

Hi y’all, I normally wear chore coats as a light but substantial outer layer. I’m looking for a high quality chore coat that will last me a while with near daily use. I’ve been eyeing the Dufferin Chore Jacket from Rosa Rugosa: https://rosarugosa.ca/products/chore-jacket?variant=40050394464317 I used to be a big fan of the Apolis chore coat, but I’ve gotten a bit bigger and prefer to have more room in the arms. I do like how beautiful it fades with daily use. I have a max budget of $300. Appreciate all the help!
Rosa Rugosa
Dufferin Chore Jacket
15 oz duck canvas fabric or 10 oz hickory stripe fabric, 100% cotton. Double needle topstitch. Five pocket design. Branded metal buttons on front. Sleeve cuff with branded metal button. Machine wash cold / hang to dry. Made in Canada

Vetra, Universal Works, Le Labourer are all good options, but I have vintage French chore coat I bought off ebay that's lasted a decade now and would be 1/10th the cost.

For American rather than French style chore coats, Stan Ray and Tellason have great options. For something in between you can look for the Evan Kinori "3 pocket jacket" secondhand

The denim chore coat was an icon of American workwear - you can find vintage ones with tags labelled things like "Big Mac" or "Hercules" or lots of other random old companies. These can sometimes be expensive, but here's an example of a decent looking one that's not too bad: https://www.ebay.com/itm/195995028420?hash=item2da236cbc4:g:CSwAAOSwWK5lDFkB
