What about Jeans Jackets ....

[shredwin_206]

Got this sweet package this morning from Danny at Rivet and Hide. Only two days shipped from London to the U.S. so insane! Pure Blue Japan Deep Indigo Jacket in a Medium. Fit is spot on! A little snug across the back, but that'll break in a bit.

[Bobbo]

Keep us updated on this one mate. I bet it will look awsome with some wear.

[shredwin_206]

Fit pic for anyone interested. I'm very happy with how it fits.

[SuperJackle]

Nice fit edwin. I'm glad you pulled the trigger on that one. I need to get up some pics of my kuro 2 soon.

Vintage foremost jacket... 1960s I think... Worn from raw for the past 7 years.

Edit because I found my post from 07 when I found it... Still amazed I only paid 8$ for it

X-Post from the Sugar Cane thread...

 

Hey guys, I just picked up a Sugar Cane Type III and thought I'd share some photos. I'm pretty stoked on this — it was a great value, fantastic denim for the money. It's only had about 2-3 days of wear. No soak, but it's a one-wash.

Type 3S came in yesterday.

I'm thinking to get a denim jacket this month, but not quite sure which one is better in between Evis type1 or Levis , is there any suggestions for me...

[Bobbo]

I would definitely go with the Evis one. can't recall that I have even seen an Evis jacket while Levi's jackets are pretty common and you will be able to get one later on if you still want to.

[Sugar Mountain]

Yes, definitely get the Evisu jacket (and even more so if you've found an Evis version). A year or two ago, I bumped into this Japanese dude at an outlet village near London who was wearing a stunning Evisu type I jacket. The denim was so good I had to start a denim bro-down with him.

I finally got around to taking some pictures of my supply jacket after over 2 years of regular wear. This is the original Supply Jacket, of the 14oz white line Cone. First wash was around 1 year, washed around every 3 months after that, so 4-5 machine washes at this point. 

 

 

 

As always I've got a few detail shots if anyone wants to see them.

Ergh, meant to upvote. That's some crazy fading man, loving the elbow combs.

no worries, it happens! I guess what they say about Cone is true, it gets better and better with washes.

Great looking jacket mate. Do post your close-ups!

boys still need help. rrl type 2? lvc type 2 i need a short body jacket..

This is my denim jacket a got from the guys at Blue Highway denim in Sweden a couple years ago. I don't remember so much about the denim other than it is in Japanese selvage. I'm sad I haven't used it so much but when it's warmer outside I will start using it again!

[chicote]

Very interesting design on that jacket. What else do you know about the brand?

 

Edit: Doing some quick research, it a Swedish brand (already stated) started by two brothers, Douglas and Hampus Luhanko. Both are vintage denim collectors and owe a great amount of their knowledge to famed vintage collector Michael Allen Harris, with whom they spent some time searching for "blue gold"--old mining workwear--in the Nevada desert. Both brothers are self-taught sewers, and draw heavily from the vintage pieces they have collected throughout their travels as well as 1920-40s blues and workwear.

 

About the products themselves:

Unchromed leather patches, nice touch. Unique coin pocket (the brand reminds me a lot of Stevenson, especially here). 100% single lockstitch construction. No hidden rivets. Hand picked fabrics, sourced from eBay and smaller denim mills.

 

What a cool brand!

They also own(?) the store Unionville where they sell their stuff among other brands.

^douglas & hampus are awesome. They need more love around here. Jacket looks great 

[Broark]

Likely going to order a SEXIH07IIIBK pretty soon, if anyone's got worn in pictures I'd love to see them.

I've seen a handful and they look very nice, especially since I'm want something a little different.

And if anyone's got one a rundown of your impressions would be awesome too!

i've been wearing mine for the last 7 months now and it's starting to wear in on the sleeves and placket with some faint light blues and grays coming out. I havent washed it yet but the fabric softened up a fair amount although the fabric on mine is slightly different from the current one we have. rather than showing a lot fading right now, it's gotten more worn in looking. I'm sure as i wear it more the fading will become more pronounced. the fabric is pretty windproof from the overdyeing. i can take pics of it when i get home

[itsbenhere]

That denim is ridiculously intense. If you guys made a normal length type 3 with it sans pockets.... That'd be a duzy!

[Broark]

Thanks Young, I'd be interested in some pictures for sure.

The extra length helps me out because I'm fairly tall with a long torso.

Right now it's basically the only denim jacket that's really caught my eye.

And I really like the overdye denim, still a denim jacket but isn't too similar to whatever jeans I'm wearing.

Unless I wear my 634S-B. 

[youngofthesoonest]

yeah the fact that they're black overdyed is a huge reason why i got it. i dont shy away from the denim tuxedo but for an everyday jacket it's nice having a jacket that is different. as tempting as it may be, i'd definitely recommend against wearing it with your 634s-b haha

[Broark]

Overdyed, extra length and hand pockets are all pretty ideal for me.

I think eventually I'll look into a type II that's more traditional if I end up liking the denim jacket look.

Considering I haven't worn a denim jacket since like elementary school.

[Broark]

Sorry for the double post but I pulled the trigger on the OD jacket today.

Hope it gets here before I head out of town for the holidays!

Very excited.
