I picked up a brand new lvc 1967 jacket from charity shop for £30. Would wear it much more if had hand warmer pockets

For my entire life I thought I was a type 3 denim jacket guy. Then I saw a type 2 from Brave Star I couldn’t keep my eyes off of. Because the price point was so good, I decided to try the type 2. It’s quickly become my favorite jacket. My point is never say never! Great video, thanks! ✌️😃

Haha. True words my friend.

I brought an Oni type 2 jacket last year, and have become completely converted to the double denim look. I try to get around the Smurf look by wearing a t-shirt slightly longer than the jacket, which breaks up the blue slightly. Mind you, being in Glasgow, this is a summer choice. When autumn rolls in, I tend to head to mid-weight leather with a cotton or light wool liner.

@@CeeAreDee pretty dismal, tbh. Aero covers vintage denim - LVC, Lee, Wrangler etc - but there’s not much Japan-wise out there beyond Edwin, Evisu etc. i tend to lean on Denimio for my denim needs. They’re super speedy, by far the keenest pricing and reliable in terms of advice on sizings. I picked up a pair of hickory stripe, kakibishu-dyed Studio D’Artisans from them at the start of the month, and they arrived two days after purchase and fit like a glove. Couldn’t ask for more, really.

I understand the white/ecru or cream color, and how it looks great with denim jeans… But instead of denim or what looks more like thick cotton… I go for a cream colored leather jacket… Motorcycle style… Vintage even… One that I found in a thrift store in Los Angeles looks really great because it’s got flaws, stains… The color is a little aged but cream colored dirty leather looks great when it gets older and you don’t feel as bad when it gets dirty because it’s easier to wipe off but it actually looks cooler when you have dirty ecru leather jacket..Also a waxed cotton jacket looks great when I gets older… If not in ecru or white, then a light khaki or tan with a darker corduroy collar looks fantastic with denim shirts plaid flannel etc..so instead of that white denim jacket that is too frightening to wear because you know it’s going to get dirty and denim jackets. Don’t look good dirty when they are white… Go for a waxed cotton or leather jacket, in a cream/ecru /tan color instead

Hmm. You might have a point there. I’d love to see an ecru waxed denim jacket.

I think you would dig the rigid and sturdy Filson - Short Lined Cruiser Jacket in black. It is very strong and solid and is a heavy waxed denim (they call it tin-cloth). They are super badass. It has a sort of almost wet look and a certain muted sheen that looks very rugged.

The only way to go is tow own at least 5 denim jackets I personally own over more then I’d like to mention And I do wear all of them at some point or another

My favourite jacket is my momotaro 15th anniversary type 2. It’s absolutely amazing to look at, but I’ve got a vintage wrangler western jacket I picked up at a vintage store for next to nothing. That’s also amazing!

I have my eyes on the Tanuki type 2 jacket for my next purchase, one of the reasons also being that it has handwarmers. However that Oni black denim jacket is also tempting, so I'm not so sure anymore about the Tanuki anymore. I'm wearing a pair of Oni secret denim jeans as I write this, and they are just incredibly comfortable and beautiful. Even though they are 20 ounces, they don't feel like it.

You’re absolutely right when the denim is either too light, or in between gray and black, and isn’t the rigid textured denim… It just looks like thick cotton, and it looks cheap… If you’re going to wear denim get the stuff that looks almost like linen… Seeing the texture and feeling the stiffness of the fabric as it molds to your body shape is a really nice experience as the creases and wrinkles and fading become your own.. But the other crap has none of those endearing qualities that makes denim heads like us a bit passionate about a textile.. and style..

Another great video. As someone who knows $h!t all about denim your videos have been great at getting me beyond Levi's. So much so I went out on a limb and got a TS long haul jacket in black over-dye selvage last year. I love it. It's finally starting to break in a bit (don't get to wear it near as much as I'd like here in FL) and the indigo underneath is starting to peak through the black. Keep up the great content. Your knowledge and opinion are both appreciated. 👏

Hey!..... I'm over 40 and I pair a denim jacket with a zip up hoodie. That hood is a necessity in some weather conditions. (But I also look like I am 12 even being 42....)

Great video. This year I purchased a Type II Jacket from Studio D’Artisan (Mother Earth), no hand warmers, a repo of the Levi’s 507XX. Gotta say, it’s incredible and gets compliments every time I pull it on. It has a effortlessly cool retro vibe that sets you apart from the sea of ubiquitous type 3s. Would love to see a video on denim chore jackets. I have a ONI secret denim version that is also a gem. (Or a type II video!)

I think at some point a fabric or a style reaches saturation point. Denim and by extension of that, denim garments have been around for so long anything and everything has been made in denim. What worked stuck and became archetypes and what didn’t fell to the wayside. And so when something new is tried it tends to be a repeat of something that went before with a small variation or something that has no business being made of denim and that tends to have a short shelf life. Then there are the times when there is something made that is a mashup of a bunch of styles. This tends to be the one that is the hardest to do and make look good. I my seen a few brands make it.
