Denim Jacket History: 7 Ancestors You Should Know About 

This man is so passionate about denim it's infectious.

Lee is sleeping SOOOO HARD on their Storm Rider silhouette. It's up there with the Type II, actually it's my favorite out of them all.

I’m not really a denimhead but Mohsin’s enthusiasm draws me in. Thanks for this, Nick.

I’m 64 years old and I remember buying my first pair of Levis. Wish i had my grandfather’s denim and cotton canvas coats and jackets.

Mohsin mixture of expertise and enthusiasm is amazing

Got my hands on a new Filson unlined denim jacket at the start of winter and this video has really made me appreciate it that much more

As an Australian, we had some very heavyweight Levis jackets(possibly asian market) that had many differences to the type three(but still basically a type 3). I used to often pick them up, and had a great one myself. I haven't seen one in the wild for over 20 years now. A guy in a UK vintage shop offered me $400 for mine.

Love when you do videos like this!! Thank-you!!

I have the wrangler's type 2 11MJ. Best looking jacket ever.

Can we get an overall history?

Curious to see a review about your Japanese denim jackets you have, size, fit, Oni/Tanuki, etc

Interesting video. I’m intrigued by his own brand, but his website seems to be dead.

From what I’ve heard about Demin is that Italy made something similar to it but with a linen canvas type material(I’ve heard it somewhere but I dunno if it’s real or not). Also duck fabric wasn’t the only option for demin so was moleskin and it was popular in Britain a long time for work use until demin replaced it in the 50s though demin was used in ww2 for the Royal navy and doing summer operations as supposed to wearing itchy wool uniforms.

I like the duck canvas better. Very nice.

Bought myself a waxed trucker jacket from Flint and Tinder in the U.S, solid jacket, I searched after seeing the jacket worn by Pedro Pascal in "The Last Of Us" series. Now I will be warm, dry, and stylish while blowing away zombies.

I wish I could find a denim jacket with pleats and for a people.

I really prefer the type II, I'm eyeing a sashiko type 2 jacket at the moment from Japan blue. I have a type 3 that's sized up and allows me to layer but I don't really wear it often, don't know why, never bonded with it.

this guy is a legend

Where can I experience selvedge denim in person in the NYC area?

Great content

Can you reshoot the video with better lighting so we can see the details?

This video looks very familiar, is it a repeat?
