Benzak BDJ-T2 Type II Jacket Forties Era Selvedge Indigo 14oz
BDJ-T2 TYPE II JACKET is Benzak´s take on the classic Type II jacket. It has a boxy fit with a shorter length, just like its vintage inspiration. The flaps of the two chest pockets follow Benzak´s signature horn shape. The BDJ-T2 also features the classic pleated front placket, which is finished with archetypal box stitching, paying further homage to its influential origins. Benzak has modernised the style by adding two large inner pockets, providing some extra space to hold personal belongings.
14 oz. forties era selvedge is a type of denim with a lot of character and interesting detailing. It has been replicated from vintage denim from 1940s, both in terms of indigo shade and construction. Denim from that period was mostly unsanforized -- and so is Benzak´s version. The tricky part of unsanforized denim is that it may shrink up to 10% after the first wash. Therefore, Benzak has already pre-washed the garments in the factory and adjusted the pattern to end up with the correct measurements after this first wash. This means that you can buy your own size and don’t have to worry about the shrinkage. n its unwashed state, the fabric weighs approximately 12 oz. per square yard. However, after washing, the shrinkage causes the weight to increase to 14 oz. per square yard as the fibers contract and draw closer together. This results in more yarn being packed into the same square yard, giving the fabric a stiff feel, despite it being already washed.
Bezank´s 14 oz. forties era selvedge has been woven by Collect Mills in Japan.
