@Daniel-San If you Google Levis Type 1 Cinch back you can see what it looks like.

Hematoma

i feel like you don't need a cinch on both the type I and II, but I'm just a random schmuck so what do I know. I guess it depends which crowd will buy regardless - the anti-cinchers or pro-cinchers? This has probably been debated to death. I like my double black type II without one though.

I would definitely like to buy a type 1 or 2. But with cinch would be more of a deal breaker for me. Both jackets are modern interpretations of a classic design... just my opinion.

@Alex - is the 19oz in CPO getting its own dedicated thread like the type 1 and 2? If so, will we see how that sample develops over time?

Alex

It will do once an owner has been decided, but the denim is not new. You can see how it ages here:

@Alex - thanks. Useful.

@Alex
no need to look for one
here I am

All these type I and II’s are amazing! Also the OD flannels are killing! I’ve i may add one note. I would dig a type I with a cinch and back pleats. Repro but with the overengineerd quality from IH. Type 2 without a cinch but cut in the boxy version

This sample is in black deerskin, but we will make it from Elk for production

Well damn!! These are badass!! Love that brown riders jacket!! And in elk leather!!? Killer!

motojobobo

Elk leather…never handled one. Any info on how thick it is? We usually hear about 1.2 mm horsehide jackets.

Alex

No info on the elk, because what we had was too thick so we are finding a thinner one. Once we know, we will tell people what it is. The other three are not elk, sorry, my post could have been clearer. I will edit it..

@Alex Wow this is so good guys !!!! If you need someone to sample it for you

EdH

Those OD's are just wonderful looking...

What did they start out as?

Has the stitching been re-done (I note that the blue and read threads really pop), or is it that the threads don't take the dye as well as the cotton?

No, they have literally just been dipped in black dye!
