    Love it! The cinch back is just so dang cool. I’ve got the same idea to get all the Levi’s styles of jackets!

    Fantastic review of a great historical garment, Diego. It was very detailed and informative. After watching it and seeing the measurements and fit I decided to get my LVC Type I in size L (180cm, 83kg dude here) and to wash it slightly to get that a little cropped but roomy look and I will see what happens, if needed I can repeat. I also ordered LVC Type II in M and plan on wearing it raw for a certain period and after that to give it the slightest wash possible. My Trucker Type III is from the premium clothing line and it is a great fitting M too. Thanks a lot and keep it up!

    Last 2-3 years in Japan, type I jackets were all the rage. everyone was making one (particularly the stripped down war-years version), now the craze is peaked, I'm guessing now they're pretty hard to find new.

      You are right Type I and II are selling like hotcakes, and the quality it is very good (Japan-made). You can find it not easily but with patience (Bears or Hinoya)

    Type I was superseded by the Type II in 1952. There should be a number stamped on the back of the closure button/rivet that tells which factory it was manufactured at.
    It's alright to adjust the back cinch to keep the wind out from then waist. I have a Type I from 555 Valancia street S.F. and a Type II.
    Great jacket.

    Looks very nice, dont think you can beat type 1 and 2's. Looking forward to see washed results.

    I just got one and I get a lot of compliments on it and I feel people are intrigued by it because it’s not a Type II or III.
    So there is room for uniqueness

      It is a good choice!! When it starts to fade, it looks even better.

    Hi there, fellow denim enthusiast here, do you have to pay import taxes when ordering these jackets from Japan?

    • @UrbanLadUK
      @UrbanLadUK  9 місяців тому +1

      If you buy from Bears, Hinoya or Denimio, the price tag is final, no surprises when the parcel arrives ;), from the other Japanese stores yes you must pay taxes and duties.
