The Omoto Denim 15.5oz Slub-Nep Type 2 Denim Jacket features a new 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. With age and wear, the vertical streakiness in the fabric will be accentuated and continue to fade beautifully. 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.
