IH-101J - 1946 101J Riders Jacket

[Giles]

Another Type II, that's it for the time being….

[Dion]

That's a massive shipload of denim-jackets, aren't they competing too much with each other?

[Giles]

Yes !

[Hematoma]

Will the other Type II have a cinch as well?

[Dion]

…and which fabric will it be made of?

@rohitsingh:

Original lee denim had this characteristic vertical line fades formation whenever denim is stretched & strained, I guess Flathead created this, I do have HD Lee 101S, creating vertical  lines, look at these pictures carefully you may notice  vertical line fades

@rohitsingh those fades look great.  Just to expand on what you said, in my experience you can/will get heavy vertical line fading on jeans using many of the denims made by Cone Mills.

@BloodnThunder    I guess originally Cone Mills denim fades more evenly, but now days you see lot of variations… I do have few Cone Mills denim from LVC, Tellason and few other, mostly smooth & soft in texture, but I do have slim Lee101s, I guess its from Kaihara mill in Japan, initially it was smooth but within a month it started forming vertical lines mostly where it was stretched, but I know Flat Head denims create more prominent lines, look at the top most picture!!!

Somehow the big red ''See Product in Shop''-button is missing in the right top corner here…

[Giles]

By "somehow", do you mean Giles is an arse?

[Dion]

Nah, never that ;). The button is very practical but is missing often…

[No.88]

I've noticed that both louisbosco & Sam/IH jackets have the zig-zag stitching on the button-hole side of the placket.

Yet Winchy's has the zig-zag stitching on both the button & button-hole plackets.

Any reason for this? Ta.

[Giles]

Well spotted. I guess Haraki could not stop himself tweaking…..

[steelworker]

I like the brass instead of plastic on the back buttons.

[Dion]

Nice fit on the new pics, Sam!

Cheers @den213

Here's a bit of evo Giles spotted on @Winchy 101J that he wanted me to shoot.

Totally spontaneous purchase my girl talked me into. I'm super exhausted from looking for wedding venues and so the pictures came out pretty bad - the fit is better in reality and I guess will improve when the denim breaks in and the sleeves don't appear as wide. It's a 42 btw.

[Jordan23]

I think it suits you perfect Flo. Congrats to a big purchase![emoji1319]

Enjoy ya addiction!

[Max Power]
