Inspired from the classic 1950s Type II denim jacket, this Iron Heart Type II is modified for a slightly longer body and tailored fit than the original Levis. For this season, Iron Heart uses a 9oz paraffin coated Oxford cloth, which is lightweight and quite breathable - a perfect layering piece for the warmer months. This one will be a classic jacket that you can reliably turn to add a nice vintage style to your outfit.
Note: Generally runs small; recommend taking at least one size up from your typical American brand tops size. If you want to layer significantly or have larger shoulders/upper chest, you may consider taking two sizes up. Due to the paraffin coating, consider washing the garment separately upon the first few washes to avoid paraffin transfer.
Model: 6'0" and 175 lbs (currently closer to 165 lbs) wearing size L for a comfortable fit that looks slim, but has decent room throughout. The size L also has good length on the arms and body (for a trucker style jacket).
