TNK402BE - 14oz Type II ZETTO Jacket - Indigo OW

In their very own contemporary reimagining of the Type 2 jacket, they've created a version that features an elongated body, sleeker arms, and functional side pockets. The 14oz "ZETTO" selvedge is their flagship denim that has been on hiatus for quite some time. For its fading capabilities, it has become one of the most sought-after pairs in the lineup and also industry-wide. The denim is known for its impressive texture that softens unlike anything else in the collection. They've accomplished this by using that plush Texas cotton previously used by America's major jean manufacturer. It's then loomed on the same machine that produced the first pair nearly 15 years ago now. They upgraded the denim over time, but it still bears the same fading capabilities as the original. You'll notice that the warp is slightly lighter than other pairs and the weft is of a yellowish/ecru nature. They accomplished the color by dipping the fabric many times but for shorter periods in pure indigo. The more "natural" colored weft will lead this denim to fade with a dirty or antiqued look that you don't get from stark, bleached cotton. Add on all of Tanuki's wonderful royal blue stitching and intricate details, and you have one hell of a denim jacket.

Fit Notes: Shop owner Tommy is wearing a size 40 in the pictures. These are fitting a bit more true to what we're used to seeing in a Type II. He has been wearing a large from most brands, and that is what he would probably stick with on this (42). While it was great almost everywhere, he would prefer a little extra room for layering. Tommy is 5'10," 165lbs with a 40" chest.
