Is herringbone a good pattern for a wool chore coat?

I'm thinking yes but just want to do a sanity check haha.

Herringbone is the pattern. It can be any color. But yes, the pattern should work in a chore coat.

Thank you! I pulled the trigger, it's a gently used arpenteur coat. Have tried on a different arpenteur coat in S that was crazy big and this one is XS so i'm hopeful about the sizing (free returns and ship anyway which is nice) Will be my first chore coat. at some point in the future, hopefully i'll find a really cool cotton (and maybe also cord) one too!

their current season jackets look really cool btw. some nice utilitarian features too like the wool coats being lined for warmth, and the ripstop ones being part nylon for the rain
