[jake431]

Thanks! I am not positive, I don't think I've washed more than three times.

[TTM]

probably wouldnt fit me either

[erk]

those measurements seem large for a w40 jacket...

perhaps I don't know what I'm talking about.

Isn't a 40 a medium and 42 a large (when comparing to the jackets sized with letters not numbers)?

and yes I realize those are centimeter measurements.

[Atzec]

maybe you can get some more shrinkage out of it?i only soaed it once in hot water.

[coleslawyum]

Washed 3 times. My favorite jeans jacket. I even wear it in the house.

[jake431]

Would rep, Cole, but can't again. That's a sweet jacket. How old is it?

[dralfonzo]

love that jacket cole. Do you wear it every day??

[Superstar]

i really love that jacket cole, having in mind how long it takes to break in a denim jacket...

my tripleworks is taking forever, but i guess this is good...

[dralfonzo]

got any flicks of yours superstar?

[Superstar]

theres some on page 47, not much has changed since, and its been fucking more than a year ! think ill give it a wash in a couple of months...

[cheep]

Thanks! I wear it almost everyday. This XX denim is pretty sweet. It's closer to color to the original Levi's 557 jacket, and it's pretty much on point with the details.

Cole, that jacket looks awesome.

I'm jealous.. i've started on a Dry Bones Type III that i've been wearing for a bit over a year now, but i'm tempted to get the Flat Head Type II that's made of their 3XXX denim. Partially because of the denim but also because lately i'm leaning more towards the look of the 50's style rather than the 60's style jacket.

[halberdklown]

im thinking of getting that jacket as well, the pictures of it on your site look incredible Kiya. Does anyone own it yet? post up pictures!

[coleslawyum]

^^^Thanks kiya. I have a Flat Head 6003 thats waiting in the wings. I can't wait to break this bad boy in 'cause the denim is so dark.

[headtowall]

My SDA Type II is starting to break in but I've thus far been unable to prove it with pictures. Looks good though.

[Superstar]

^ wheres ur connie at head?

[headtowall]

I ended up selling it. Hard times.

Last pics. Close to 2.5 years. 3 or 4 washes:

[Superstar]

woah, what a shot, epic pbjs and that epic connie in the same fit... i remember when u posted that exact fit after youve been working or crawling in some cave or mine or something... that shit made me cream..

those are eternals, not pbjs. but anyways this fit is nice and the conny looks great. i wore same combo today.

[beatle]

got something different the other day...

an old Helmut Lang type III in a charcoal colour. washed it, spun it in the dryer to shrink it as much as i could, and enjoyed the wrinkly one-wash texture to it. like coleslawyum i'm wearing it all the time, even in the house.

super quiet detailing, black stitching instead of orange/lemon on the levi's indigo jackets. the denim is heavy, and has a good weight to it. it's like a type III reduced to its most minimal level.

[dralfonzo]

nice. i like the subtle detailing

[erk]

I was wondering if someone could help me with this jean jacket

its a lee 101J but I don't know if its vintage or some re-release. i bought it from a local good will, but it looks really weird on me so I'm going to end up selling it.

it seems that someone had it pressed a long time ago and it has some creases, but it has very little wear on it and looks like it may have been washed once or never.

anybody know anything?

The 'MR' mark appeared in the 70s, so it's later than that.

My guess is it's original as not many repros were sold in the US and the denim looks right(I don't have a repro so I can't say for definite). Nice jacket.
