Momotaro #002 Classic Selvedge Denim Jacket - 15.7oz

The Classic-line take on Momotaro's #002 Type II jacket, same mid-1950s two-pocket pattern as the Standard but cut from the heavier 15.7oz Classic selvedge denim with the brand's iconic 'battle stripes' painted on the arm. The denser fabric reads structural in the body as the silhouette holds its shape rather than collapsing -closer to how the original mid-century jackets actually wore on shop floors and rail yards.

Pairs especially well with the Classic 15.7oz pant cuts for a tonal heavyweight set, or as a heavier layer over the lighter Standard line. Sold rigid; the fades on a 15.7oz break harder and slower than the Standard, especially along the chain-stitched yokes and the pocket flaps. We'd put this against Iron Heart's heavyweight Type II for someone wanting the same density at a slightly more accessible price. A jacket built to log decades, not seasons.
