Pure Blue Japan has just put their blue hands on a Western classic and given it a welcomed twist. The quintessential Type III denim jacket we know and love has been rendered in a burly blue sashiko fabric for a perfect balance of Japanese flare and Americana styling. Dubbed the Sashiko Denim Type III Jacket, the indigo-dyed sashiko fabric is an exciting prospect when considering the texture that’s sure to reveal itself over time, just look at Kapital’s Century Denim or heck, any denim repaired with indigo dyed sashiko threads. You know what you’re getting into with a sashiko-reinforced garment, and it’s always a good time, just ask any Samurai.

It’s got two chest flap pockets, welted hand pockets, metal custom buttons, waist adjusters, and plenty of pocket room for dat EDC. Don’t forget to click the magnifying glass icon on this sashiko denim.
