Pure Blue Japan 14oz "Signature" Modified Type 2 Denim Jacket
Future Classic in Pure Blue!
This denim jacket is constructed with PBJ's signature 14oz XX denim (the same denim as their signature XX-013 & XX-019 denim jeans). The texture is quite dotty and slubby in the brand-new condition but still smooth to the touch. The grand indigo is thread-dyed, and with wears and washes, you will expect it to age to a higher contrasted look with more dotty and short vertical textures coming up gradually!
For a modernised style and fit, this modified type 2 denim jacket has a slightly longer vertical length and features two extra front side pockets if you compare it to the vintage type 2 denim jacket.
