This jacket from Samurai seamlessly blends elements from the 1930s and 1950s with contemporary flair. Drawing inspiration from the timeless design of the 30s, it features a single pocket, while incorporating the iconic side adjuster characteristic of the 50s. To enhance practicality for everyday wear, the brand has thoughtfully included waist and inner pockets.
Meticulously crafted using the renowned Samurai otokogi denim fabric, this jacket is a testament to the brand's dedication to quality. Employing Samurai's signature slubby #6 cotton thread, remnants of cotton waste are intentionally retained in the weave, amplifying its rugged aesthetic. The fabric is subjected to the utmost strain on vintage looms, resulting in a distinctive texture and appearance, ideal for achieving coveted high contrast fades over time.
The attention to detail elevates this jacket to new heights. Iron-made rising-sun buttons add a touch of authenticity, while an exclusive sheep leather patch reinforces its premium quality. Extra heavy stitching ensures durability, catering to those who demand rugged wear. Additionally, the gold selvedge adorned with silver lamé and the Syogo-Mujo pocket lining demonstrate a commitment to both style and substance.
As all Samurai denim jackets, it runs slightly smaller in size compared to your regular American size. Typically, if you wear a size M in American jackets, you will need to select a size 42 (L) in this. However, individual body types can vary, so, as always, we recommend consulting our size chart for the perfect fit.
