The Omoto Denim 15.5oz Slub-Nep Type 1 Denim Jacket features their classic Type 1 silhouette, using their medium-weight slubby and neppy fabric. Produced in vintage Toyoda shuttle looms, these are woven with a low tension and enhance the irregularity of the fabric. This modified silhouette has updated arm holes, adjusted collar size, and side pockets for added functionality.
Note: These are unsanforized but come from their factory with a pre-wash and sun-dried to remove most of the initial shrinkage. In general, with careful washing (machine wash cold/warm and hang-dry, you should experience no further shrinkage).
Model: Model: 6'0'' and 175 lbs wearing size 40 for a slim fit with decent room for movement. Model can also wear size 42 for a more relaxed fit and room to layer significantly underneath.
