Product Name: TCB Jeans TCB 50's JeanJaket Type 2nd
Material: 100% Cotton
Country of Origin: Japan

The TCB Jeans 50's JeanJacket has been redesigned.
It has been updated from the previous slim silhouette model to a more relaxed fit.
This is a second-type denim jacket crafted with meticulous attention to detail, from fabric to sewing and silhouette.

It is based on the paper patch of the vintage Levi's 507XX (2nd Type) owned by TCB.
With the renewal of the 50's Jacket, production of the old type has been discontinued.
Both the new relaxed fit and the slim old type offer their own unique appeal.

The fabric is Zimbabwe cotton.
Zimbabwe cotton is renowned for being among the highest quality in the world within brand varieties, and is so fine that it is used for dress shirts in Europe.
Since it is harvested by hand without machinery, it is almost pesticide-free.
It has fewer damages and impurities during harvest, superior whiteness, high fiber uniformity, and is full of luster and softness.
Using Zimbabwe cotton, yarn is spun with traditional spinning machines to produce the fabric.
This denim fabric is made with a focus on quality from the raw material.

The fabric used is approximately 13.5 oz (based on a 6×6 class warp and weft of Zimbabwe cotton; note that the "class" and "approximate" terms refer to the unevenness of the yarn).
It is produced not by forced computer-controlled methods but by traditional spinning machine adjustments.
The characteristic "Atari" (fading pattern) features a thick, short fall, which naturally connects into lines, showcasing the best vertical fall.

The design is based on vintage denim jackets from the 1950s.
It is a second-type denim jacket with pleats and chest pockets.
It has been crafted to embody a vintage look typical of TCB Jeans, resulting in a timeless jacket unaffected by fashion trends.

The front features pleats, a characteristic of the 2nd type.
Great care has been taken in the sewing of this part.

A major feature of the 50s JeansJacket, the front pleats are sewn to replicate vintage styles, using a "Square Stitch Sewing Machine" from start to finish.

The chest pockets are sewn with a double-needle sewing machine.
They feature a distinctive "onigiri" (rice ball)-like stitch at the corners.
This sewing follows vintage techniques.
The pocket flaps are sewn without cutting the thread from the pocket seam, maintaining authenticity.
The rivet reinforcements on the front pockets are adjusted in thickness and width based on vintage standards and placed in the same position, reproducing fine details.

The side construction varies depending on size.
Sizes 38 and below use a single stitch.
Sizes 40 and above have an additional piece of fabric, resulting in two stitches.
This variation in sewing method by size is characteristic of a factory brand.

An adjuster is attached to the side, a classic detail of the 2nd type that follows vintage design.
It allows for adjustment of about one button's width.

The buttons are original, modeled after vintage styles, engraved with "TWO CAT BRAND."
They are made of iron, allowing for a pleasing patina with use.

The cuff has a single button, making it easy to roll up.
The rivets on the sleeves are copper, durable and developing a patina over time.

The jacket features extensive use of rolled seams.
The armholes are sewn with rolled seams, which are difficult and considered a key challenge in manufacturing.

The belt and cuffs are sewn with union special machine, with the entire seam from the belt tip to the cuff finished with a single pass, following vintage construction.

The pleats on the front use selvage fabric, reproducing vintage craftsmanship.

The patch is made of paper.
Around 1957, the patch was changed from leather to paper, following vintage standards.
