The Omoto Denim Type 1 Selvedge Denim Jacket in Charcoal features their custom-woven 13.5oz medium weight fabric that has been given a sumizome overdye using Binchō-tan white charcoal to produce this dark indigo, gray-cast denim. Omoto's modified Type I jacket has updated arm holes, adjusted collar size, and side pockets for added functionality. This is an excellent light-to-medium weight Type 1 jacket that takes cues from the vintage jacket for a modern appearance.
Note: These are unsanforized but come from their factory with a pre-wash and sun-dried to remove most of the initial shrinkage. The additional overdye process also removes all shrinkage. In general, unless you put this in a machine 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.
