Made from 12oz lightweight denim, this jacket offers a light and comfortable feel similar to a shirt. The fabric is woven on old-fashioned shuttle looms using slub yarn for a natural, uneven texture. Deeply dyed warp threads ensure a pronounced fade with wear, and the selvedge detailing on the inner placket highlights its shuttle loom construction.

This jacket is equipped with distinctive details such as a cinch back belt and laurel wreath donut buttons. The flapless chest pocket is characteristic of 40's jackets, while the modern button attachment method on the cuffs is inspired by post-50's jackets, making it easy to wear.

Action pleats across the back allow for greater mobility, reducing stress and discomfort during movement. Additionally, the jacket features a cowhide leather patch which will develop unique creases and color changes over time, enhancing the jacket's vintage appeal.

This jacket runs slightly smaller in size compared to your regular American size. Typically, if you wear a size M in American jackets, you will need to select a size 42 (L) in this. However, individual body types can vary, so, as always, we recommend consulting our size chart for the perfect fit.

The Flat Head is one of the benchmark Japanese repro Americana-style brands. Its founder, Mayashi Kobayashi, is known in the scene for being a die-hard fanatic of 1950s American style. Inspired by the music, motorbikes, cars, architecture of the era, and with a clear rockabilly influence, Kobayashi created in 1996 a truly authentic brand that today has some firm devotees. It stands out for the extreme quality of each one of its pieces. The brand is always very much aware of a curious philosophy that believes that a product is fully finished only after the customer has worn and moulded it to themselves.
