The Studio D'Artisan D4614 Futa-Ai Denim Jacket is a Type 1 Denim Jacket inspired by the traditional Japanese color Futa-ai, a dual-dye process of indigo and safflower. Historically, this color was reserved for the elite due to its unparalleled beauty, and SDA has taken this craft of color through a blend of natural indigo and madder to produce this purple hue. One of the absolute most beautiful jackets and fabrics we've seen, and one to not miss! This denim is woven on vintage shuttle looms, and the subtle variations in the natural dye give each pair added depth and character. Woven with thick, textured slub yarns on both the inside and outside, the fabric has a substantial feel with a beautifully rugged texture.
Note: Generally runs small, recommend taking at least one size up, depending on if you are on the smaller end of your size or not. If you are on the smaller end of your size and prefer a slim fit, it's possible you can take your typical American brand size. Otherwise, most folks should size up at least one.
Model: 6'0'' and 175 lbs (currently closer to 165 lbs), wearing size 40 for a comfortable fit, neither too slim nor too relaxed.
