Nice overview of jackets, unfortunately in Japanese w/no subtitles. One of these days I should offer to translate and post to sufu for posterity 😂
Some great insights here that should've been obvious to me but I didn't think about all these years, for example, the Lee Riders jacket was the most advanced/functional between the three brands and was basically unchanged in design. The Levi's type 3 released 10-12 years later (apologies typing from memory here) is basically an admission that the Lee jacket was superior and nearly all the design cues on the type 3 were informed by it. Nonetheless, my man here says personally the Lee jacket is the least "cool" when wearing from a style perspective, despite being the most functional, whereas the Levis Type 2 is his favorite
