A denim jacket should tell a story, and this one carries three years of history from the moment you put it on. Inspired by a naturally faded Dawson Denim jacket worn for three years, this edition has been meticulously aged by our specialist laundry in Japan, replicating every crease, fade, and subtle detail of authentic wear.
Crafted in Okayama, Japan, the Dawson Type II Trucker Jacket stays true to the original 1953 design, featuring two chest pockets with buttoned flaps, a pleated front, and adjustable back cinch tabs for a classic fit. The jacket is cut from white-line selvedge denim, woven from organic cotton and plant-dyed indigo, faithfully reproducing the look and feel of 1950s denim.
Through a precise washing and hand-finishing process, this edition mirrors the natural evolution of raw denim, capturing vintage-style fades, high-contrast whiskering, and soft patinaed tones. The result is a jacket that looks like an old favourite from day one—without sacrificing the durability and longevity of raw selvedge.
Produced in strictly limited numbers, each jacket is expertly sewn on mid-century industrial machines, aged with care, and checked in our East Sussex workshop before shipping.
A true heritage-inspired classic, aged to perfection and built to last.
