If only it was in my size, I would of kept it.

23 days ago
I like to start off by saying there is nothing wrong with this jacket. I really liked this LVC 1961557 Denim Trucker Jacket. If only it fits me, I would have kept it. I had two of these jackets in my hands and it is in a real dark indigo and has no pockets. Having no pockets is not a big deal to me. Now the sizing is not what the size guide has, it's different. Here are what two of the sizes really are. XL: 44 XXL: 46 On a size 48 the upper back and solders are a little tight for me, but passable, wearable. In this jacket a size 48 to 50 would be nice. A size 50 would be perfect, but a 52 is a little bit too much for me in their normal premium line. Who knows what Levi's will do in the future with LVC "Jean Jackets" in my size. Wishful thinking, I know.

Klassiker neu aufgelegt

3 months ago
die 1961 Type III 557 ist noch ein wenig mehr boxy und passt mir (172cm/75 kg) in der US 40 perfekt. Leider kein Cone Mills Denim mehr, aber die Qualität des verwandten Japan-Denims ist auch outstanding. Warum hier keine vernünftige Beschreibung (US Größen, Maße und Fit der Jacke) erfolgt ist mir ein Rätsel. Das können andere Plattformen wesentlich besser...

Levi's® Vintage Clothing 1961 Type III 557

11 months ago
Great product. Was hesitating to order as the denim is just 11-12 oz. (same as in 1961?) and the jacket is quite expensive. Nevertheless it fits like a glove, color and fabric are fantastic. Great job Levis. Now a "vintage clothing" biker west would be the next right step (Cone Mills).

Yes, I recommend this product.

Another Classic Reissue...

a year ago
The 1961 Trucker is truly a stitch for stitch classic! Material and workmanship as expected from a piece from Japan production of Japanese materials. As the era, sizing is a bit on the smaller side. Normally, in preshrunk I'd opt for a Large....Here i took an XL...Looks great!...The only thing that I would have expected at this price level was selvedge material.

Fantastic Piece even if it’s expensive

a year ago
Picked this up on black friday as soon as I saw it, I think it has been a long time since they did a run of the 1961 version of the type 3, instead of the 1967 version. This jacket represents everything that is great about LCC, and I hope Levi’s keeps making clothing of this calibre. This jacket is excellent, the stitching is almost immaculate, the denim is gorgeous (full of nep and some subtle skin£ and dye is a rich dark indigo that I know will be full of character after some wear and washes. The contrast yellow stitching is also absolutely beautiful, and really makes this piece stand out. The fit is also excellent, and the fact that the denim is sanforised means it’s much easier to get the right size and not worry about too much shrinkage (like my type 2 sadly did in the sleeves!). Overall, I’d say this jacket is well worth the money (on sale that is) and I look forward to wearing it for years to come. Minor things I think could have been improved: - The font for the “557XX” is great, but the number sizing font looks too modern for a jacket from the 60s and too basic. - There were no original labels / flashers on the jacket like they do with the LVC jeans, which I think would be a nice addition. Especially since we are paying for the history of the jacket!
