What about Jeans Jackets ....

[Lorcan]

Looks interesting will have to check out the video. Yuri just = Japanese for lily.  As those buckles have the little fleur-de-lis mark on them.

the buckle he calls the 47 buckle (aka the ‘file’ buckle) appears on the 1945 jacket that was repro-d by Sugar Cane. Not sure there’s a perfect succession/chronology of what buckle was used in that period.

Ah, yes, lily.
Yes, I'm sure there are overlaps. Different factories, stock of old buckles, etc..

Do you know about the stitching/sewing pattern of the pockets and flaps?

Not really, I'd always had it in mind 30s jackets sometimes had rounder flaps but I'm not really sure that's true. Or only for some late 20s/early 30s?  Looking at old listings of jackets sold by Mushroom there are some pre-red tab 36 jackets with flaps like the Warehouse one you posted, ie. more squared off and similar turns/loops in the single needle sewing

https://vintage-mushroom.net/?pid=131850488

https://vintage-mushroom.net/?pid=164946116

Can see the start/stop of the single needle sewing quite nicely on this one too: https://vintage-mushroom.net/?pid=158975904

 

37 Model https://vintage-mushroom.net/?pid=178525850

 

Vs 1940s https://vintage-mushroom.net/?pid=183733603

slightly taller flap although also late 40s https://vintage-mushroom.net/?pid=181747552

and 50s: https://vintage-mushroom.net/?pid=182038732

Mushroom also sold this completely insane early 40s jacket that's a prototype war model from 41-42. It still has single needle flap sewing unlike post-war.

https://vintage-mushroom.net/?pid=138621900 its very cool

dark buttons!

and the dark buckle, also see no cinch back rivets! (and no rivets on the pocket either)

Figured I should post a fit pic of my RRL jacket.

Mushroom listed this mint late 20s 506xx (previously appeared in King of Vintage vol. 3, so ex-Larry of Heller's Cafe I guess) beautiful jacket.

Even with all the wonky repro's we've been seeing in recent years I'm not sure many of them have dared to sew a patch this skewed 🤣

Small buttons

That's some really great photos @Lorcan. There's images I've posted on the vintage denim thread but not as clear or as detailed as those, l mean that shot of the underside of that pocket flap is wild ! And you can see the red line which came out that year too, when Cone became the sole supplier for LS&Co.

My Warehouse type 1 is a direct copy of that jacket but doesn't have such a wonky patch. It's the only surviving first pocket flapped type one from that year with a readable patch which has 'Size' printed instead of W/L like the jeans patch of the time.

Love the pin holes from previous positions on the cinch strap.

Funny I realised later I'd saved the images you'd posted in the other thread to my vintage denim folder but not twigged it was the same jacket! Oops. 

Nice that Warehouse does a decent repro given that the original is selling for the bargain price of 175,000 USD 😆

Shame it's a size 36 and not a size 46, otherwise l might cop 😁

[Lorcan]

Maybe not to everyone's taste, but had this ongoing as little project for a while -  Denime Type III. Still have a couple of spare patches I could add - Clumber Mfg. (from Okinawa) threw in an extra one free and I have a spare North No Name felt one I got from Mercari.

[PBTony]

Thinking about getting a type 3 jacket. Are there any repro recommendations? 

I like the look of Fullcounts as it seems quite relaxed and the denim is super comfortable but the price is pretty high.

Is the denim for the 1962 Sugarcane type 3 jacket the same as the 1966 jeans?

TCB 60s is tempting though it seems like quite a slim fit 

[Lorcan]

There's also Far East Manufacturing by Resolute https://bears-tokyo.myshopify.com/products/far-east-manufacturing-trucker-jacket-denim-jacket

Warehouse haven't made one in like two years so only SOAS still has it in stock (and they are never the cheapest) but it looks nice https://sonofastag.com/products/warehouse-2004xx-type-iii-denim-jacket-raw?variant=48826493239600

I like the fit and pocket flap shape on my Denime one but the collar is quite large, feels a bit 70s (though it's supposed to be a repro of the first early 60s version). 

I dunno with the Sugar Cane denim they describe them as being different weight (14oz jeans vs 14.25oz for the jacket) although both American/Zimbabwe cotton blend. They also did a made in USA model in Cone denim a few years ago but that'll be more difficult to track down.

Cheers @Lorcan

Resolute is tempting considering how nice the 710 fades. 

Warehouse looks great but trying to keep it less than 200

@PrettyBoyTony

I have the SC 60 tux

The Jacket I have seem to be in a different denim than the jeans.

the jeans are slightly greencast after 1,5 years of wear. 
the jacket is more blue to white fading - in the few areas which fade.

Quite a nice jacket and being the type 3 it is more fitted.

the flaps on the collars pops up a little after a wash, but will mend when you bend them back

I’ve had it for a bit more than 5 yesrs and this is the tag:

Super helpful thanks well27! Jacket is fading nicely 👌 

[ATWM]

To generalize widely, while admitting there are certainly exceptions floating around - imo type 3 works well fairly slim or it doesn’t much work. There are certain brands I feel like do that sort of cut a little better, I would def trust a Hayashi label for a good late 60s garment - I feel like that’s where he’s at his best. 
 

I’d also look at Ues - they do nice work.

@Lorcan is that a Type3 from the new Denime (aka Warehouse) or an older model?

I have an Orizzonti Type 3 and this collar is also quite large

I used to own a UES Type 3 that I unfortunately outgrew and ended up selling. Very slim fitting, denim was great though.

Yeah it's Warehouse Denime.

Your Orizzonti one looks good

The colours unfortunately don't really come out on the pic. But it gives an idea. So why not.

On the very left Freewheelers 46/47- it has the bluest colour of the three
Warehouse Duckdigger DD 2001- Banner denim, the darkest denim 
Warehouse 1936 model 7.5x7.5 Dead Stock Blue- this has the "oxidized" quality of having stayed in a warehouse for decades that is the idea of DSB
