Type 2 1950's Denim Jacket - 2 Year Wash

When we talk about denim, there’s really only one brand that can transcend the centuries of trends and that’s of course Levi’s. Throughout the decades none have done more to normalise the use of denim in the everyday wardrobe than Levi Strauss & Co. When approaching their own denim jacket, it made sense that Orslow would start with the Type II, which started appearing in the 1950s.

Orslow adjusted the fit and details, but in large it’s about minute changes. The iconic Type II pleats that can be cut to allow for expansion (shoutouts to belly boys) and patch pockets are ever-present.

The 2 Year Wash is created for those of us who want to skip the years wearing a somewhat uncomfortable, stiff jacket that leaves blue stains on everything in order to create a lovely patina. Let’s be honest, nobody is achieving this level of fade sitting on an office chair for 6hrs a day, so save yourself the pain and just get something that’s already there.
