New Never Worn With Tags! Size 42

A defining feature of 1930s denim jackets was the addition of flaps to patch pockets, which would have represented a significant improvement in quality during an era of material scarcity. The stitches securing the front pleats were also reinforced, increasing the garment’s overall completeness as workwear, and the single-pocket design reached its finalized form.

The cotton satin weave employs coarse-count yarns on the reverse side—normally not exposed—to enhance durability. In 1950s military garments, this reverse-face construction was often used to create products with increased strength and resistance to abrasion. The inherent irregularity of the yarns, left unstandardized as they were originally intended for the inside, adds to the fabric’s distinctive character.

Custom-engraved buttons and back hardware are made of iron. Finished with a smoked-style plating, they evoke the passage of time through their subdued, aged appearance.
