The best denim jacket I ever owned!

10 days ago
The jacket is shrink to fit, so check the sizing and account for that! Other than this, the material is rigid indeed but will get softer after the soaking

Often imitated, never replaced

12 days ago
I’ll admit I’m no expert on denim but the jacket appears to be very high quality denim, made in Japan. The stitching is top-rate, very clean and clearly attention was paid to making the jacket. Personally, I find the jacket a little on the smaller side in the chest (when compared to the same sized XL Type 1), so will be doing a minimal cold wash. There are a lot of reproductions out there these days but why not get the real thing?

Brilliant vintage piece

13 days ago
Dark, sturdy denim with a rigid raw hand that fades into genuine character over time. Authentic details throughout — era-correct rivets on the sleeve cuffs and a leather badge inside the collar. Pairs beautifully with other vintage pieces, especially the 501 1954, for a coherent mid-century look. A faithful, hard-wearing reissue and a standout anchor for any vintage-inspired wardrobe.

Piece of Art.

8 months ago
Lange gesucht und oft ausverkauft. Keine einzige in Japan gefunden.. Sie war online und ich habe direkt zugeschlagen und muss sagen, sie Vintage Type 2 ist absolute Handwerkskunst und einfach ein piece of art. Das Denim ist von höchster Qualität und fühlt sich auch so an. Bei der Passform sollte man beachten, ob man sie „richtig“ waschen möchte. Wenn ja, mindestens eine Nummer großer kaufen. Sie ist den Preis wert!

Yes, I recommend this product.

Size up and get down

a year ago
Wanted to give a good review for this so here it goes. I am 6’ ~195lbs, 46” chest. After reading other reviews and some help from an online chat - thank you online team!- i ordered the XL and am glad I did. First off, i love the boxier, blouson style cut of this jacket. I was worried about it accentuating my bulkier frame but its very flattering - pleats are your friend! Unwashed, the fit was darn near perfect. After a cold wash and extra rinse, i did notice a minute amount of shrinking - mainly the sleeves and length but it was as expected since I sized up so it worked as good as i hoped. It feels even more tailored after wearing it wet and giving it a gentle stretch to get some perceived length back. The fabric has substance, a nice slubby quality, and the stitching and finish feel worth the premium. I looked at a number of other japanese repro brands but why not get the real thing?
