My Last Denim Jacket

[@FernandoHatsumura]

Good choice! The best Americana clothes are indeed made in Japan. The quality on the Orslow items in amazing!

[@JamesHerlihy]

Now I just need a pair of fatigue pants

[@robbertredert]

Beautiful jacket! Orslow just doesn’t use leather patches on any of their products. I work in retail and have been selling the brand, which is outstanding- their 105 denim resembles a 501 from the 50’s and also features a jacron patch. Enjoy the jacket man!

[@JamesHerlihy]

That’s great news! Thank you for the insight. I’ll check out the 105. I’m wearing a pair of sugarcanes right now.

Leather is overrated .. this is better

[@lisam-q2696]

That’s why I love the 50s style too; the sleeves are perfect for 5’2” ❤

[@JamesHerlihy]

Complete agree!

[@tailorsoldierspy6464]

Thank you for wearing the jacket for us so we could see how the jacket fits you.

[@veneracci5556]

i got the type 2 in the 2 year wash and its honestly my favourite denim jacket that I have ever worn.

[@JamesHerlihy]

I’m really happy with it. Excited to get it all beat up and aged.

I love Orslow, I have a few things from them. they're sometimes quite more expensive than other Japanese brands that make the same products (Japan blue, sugar cane, the strike gold...) so I also check out other brands because all these heritage brands sort of make the same stuff over and over. I have a type II denim jacket by the strike gold. And yeah, Orslow do not use leather patches.

[@JamesHerlihy]

Thats for the insight! I agree with the price. I think they are starting to add that Kapital Visvim tax.

[@johnnyfu198]

Thanks for sharing! Beautiful jacket!

[@JamesHerlihy]

Thanks brother!

[@NicholasRoethel]

Great review, just copped my first orslow piece as well

[@JamesHerlihy]

So amazing. Need a pair of fatigue pants

[@Ladiesman-iy5fv]

Jacron started being used in the 50s, you Can see levis from the 50s some had jacron patches and others lesther but it was definetly around in the 50s. I believe lvc type 2 jacket also comes with jacron patch.

[@JamesHerlihy]

Good to know thank you!

[@ebdubs6186]

Love the video!!

[@JamesHerlihy]

Thanks brother! Just keep grinding.

[@danieljaymeshansel5086]

About the patch Levi’s switched to paper around 1955

[@JamesHerlihy]

Great to know thank you!

[@juanjohnJP]

I might be wrong, but I believe that Levi's went to a paper patch in the late 50s on the type 2.

[@JamesHerlihy]

I think you’re right.

[@michalzurek8165]

LVC type 2 raw denim jacket for 2023 is made in Japan

[@JamesHerlihy]

I saw that! Glad they are moving production to Japan. Unfortunately they aren't sending much to the USA

[@sf2explus184]

paper patch probably better as leather patch can shrink and make the back of the jacket look funny at some point

[@JamesHerlihy]

Thats a good call!

[@user-zz6qz3lk9t]

Glad to hear another fellow hobbit that love 50s fashion because of our superior stature
