Love the channel guys, always enjoy sitting down and watching!
Thank you so much! We’re having fun hanging doing it. 😊
I bought the Bronson repro if the Lee stormrider. It had a nice short length of 25 inches in the back. Perfect for high rise pants! I think the Lee storm rider, wrangler, and Levi’s type 1 are the best, in that order.
Bronson makes nice stuff!
Agree…totally…. I prefer the wrangler,storm rider then type 2 for because of the 2 pockets
I have many truckers, mostly Levi but also Lee, GWG, and a Japanese no name with a zipper. I love this style and it looks great on shorter people.
GWG made some awesome jackets!
Excellent video! Truckers may be my new poison. Currently it’s Barbour jackets. Really enjoying your content.
Thank you!
Excellent episode guys, love trucker jackets.....
Thank a bunch!
Trucker jackets in leather and suede are the best!
Agreed!! 💯
Again, great show and video 😊 I must say that this man Mr. Paul’s partner here he knows his jackets just like Paul knows his motorcycles 👍😀 Ok, he looks good in all of his jackets but I must say as a compliment that wow Mr. Paul, he looks good in everything gosh, he got some style that I have never seen before 😂❤ Ok, these 2 Rock and Roll, I’m glad for them that they started to make these videos for folks to see and learn about ok, mostly what they talk about those special jackets. I wish, I had my good old so very special jackets I used to have as a kid back in Europe but ok it’s in the past but I did have some great jackets that would be worth a lot of money now but ok it is what it is. Nothing last forever as they say 😂 Keep making more great videos so we all can have a good day by learning a lot 👍😇✌️
Jackets and denim jackets are amazing, great knowledge drop but i feel we’re missing on the respect for all the drivers and trucker drivers out there. So many years, so many miles
Indeed! Respect to the hard working truck drivers out there! My Dad drove truck for 30 years. Proud Teamster member and working class hero!
Go drink a Miller High Life and listen to the song '18 Wheels' by The Murder City Devils!
It gets real lonely out there on the road 😉
@@frakismaximus3052 -Yes it does, imagine all those sailors, astronauts, explorers.
I was in between the cotton and sateen cowboy jackets as well for a whole year and then got to try them both on in store in LA during a work trip and fell in love with the sateen version: great choice! I ended up buying the cowboy jacket in a special indigo denim they had though (i didn’t have a good denim trucker in my collection but a lot of lighter color jackets already) but I still beat myself up sometimes for not getting the white sateen haha
MF has so many choices, it’s difficult to decide!
Love the mister freedom jacket, they make fantastic jeans as well
Absolutely!
great channel
Thank you!
Your jacket looks great without the wax!
Vintage is trial and error... I think for trucker jackets it is still better than a new cardboard iron heart. Weird smells can be defeated with lots of washing, bleach, soaking... repairs can actually add to the look.
Yes, and there's something to be said about breaking in a new jacket as well...
Great episode guys, I so look forward to these episodes! I have quite a few truckers, one of my favourite’s is the Indigofera type I in their gunpowder black, also the sugarcane type IIs😍
You have impeccable taste!
Vinegar and Oxyclean soak will kill most smells. I resell and I find really amazing odors.
If I ever get back into the “vintage” clothing game- I’ll have to try that!
@themancaveclub I'm currently wearing a late 60s sherpa lined Wrangler Wrange Coat. I wear new and old. My passion is old. My wallet is new. Lol
@@dark_gravity_edc Perfect choice!
I'm most interested with what pins people have on their jacket. I always have band pins on my jacket. Anyway, just go pick up a Levi's Type 3 denim jacket at Ross in the fall. You want the 100% cotton one, no spandex. They always have them. Nothing wrong with China made Levi's. I've had the same Levi's jacket from Ross for 7 years, never washed, no issues. Buffalo Exchange always has some, last time they had one for $22, good deal. Last Ross ones I saw were $32 and were Dark Wash and Medium Wash, they almost look the same. I've had Big E vintage Levi's jackets from thrifting and still own some, they are nice, but modern Levi's is fine. Had Lee and Wrangler jackets as well, but got rid of them. Some jackets just fit better. Modern size Small Wrangler jacket I tried fit absolutely hide and I'm a usually a Medium. Also had some old department store denim jackets from the 1960's and 1970's, which aren't always the best, thin fabric or weird fits, but have cool tags. Type 3 is too common a style to pay big bucks for and I feel that people that talk about wear aren't going to wear stuff enough to see any change. You can't own 11+ new denim jackets and expect to see change.
Definitely! You make some good points. I also have a really nice Levi’s T3, it’s one of my “go to” jackets. I just didn’t wear it for this episode, because we wanted highlight more unusual versions.
Wrangler 11MJZ one pocket with side elastics. Does not get any better than that.
That’s one of the best for sure!
Levi's Type 3 Men's Trucker Jacket is an awesome jacket, although I wear a GAP denim jacket that I like more because of the denim and the way it's made.
I had a pair of gray Gap 1969 corduroy pants from the Goodwill Bins. Absolutely awesome pants, nice slim fit! Got about 5 years of use out of them. Got rid of them after the crotch gave out. Great pants for winter, very comfortable and warm, good size pockets as well!
The reason it doesn’t exist is because the fabric is made with the sashiko thread. It’s labouring, each piece is cut then stitched in the sashiko thread.
That makes sense
Only type 2 that matters is the visvim 101 (or 101xx if you desire oversized). Nothing else compares in terms of fit and quality of denim in my opinion, and I've almost owned everything out there.
Yes! The VISVIM is a beautiful jacket! I just picked up a Type 2 from Left Field and I love it.
If youre looking for another repro style, warehouse does a nice vintage wash one@@themancaveclub
You forgot about the lee 401 prestige jacket
Yes! Totally …that’s also a nice jacket!
Great video guys!! Really interested in the Wies Made Archer. Not a lot of reviews online if that one. Appreciate you showing it. BTW, are there internal pockets on the Archet jacket?
5:23 - “AcrossT.”
I havent watched the video yet so apologies if it was mentioned but who makes the red jacket at the beginning of the video?
Taylor Stitch
Lois denim jacket is nice and cheap
Yeah, don’t see that brand too much in the States
@@themancaveclubit’s Spanish
Why do folks always get the front jacket pleats wrong? Nobody cut them out, they're just like the pleats on the front of pants, to give you a little extra give when you're moving around, the sewn tackdowns keep the pleats close to the body so they don't catch on anything,
When the first Levi’s Type 1 was introduced in the early 1900’s, standard sizing as we know it today was not common for work wear. As referenced by Sam Trotman in “The History of The Denim Jacket”, there is some evidence of workers cutting the stitching from the pleats to expand the jacket, therefore allowing extra room for layering in colder weather.
@@themancaveclub what Trotman wrote is not what you said. If some kid listens to what you actually said and does that to his jacket, trying to be super traditional, I hope you have the balls to buy him a new one.
@@aceymacI’m just referencing what other “denim historians” have said and wrote via multiple sources. I’m no expert by any means, so don’t shoot the messenger.
@@themancaveclub I like what you guys are trying to do, and you are by no means the only people in the community who have cited that as a regular phenomenon. I just think, as you try to build your own community it’s important to consider the responsibility of being an influencer. Lots of folks watching you will see things for the very first time and will believe what you say, I think it’s important to try to be accurate and help folks find what they like and avoid mistakes.
This gun is just a cap pistol, no shots fired. Good luck with your endeavor, I hope you make more people passionate about good clothes and good style.
what's your size on the iron heart shirt??? I ordered a Medium from them and shoulders were way too small! I'm curious how many sizes you have had to size up from American brand sizing.
I wear a medium, Jimmy wears a large in IH shirts. Check out our flannel episode where we discuss IH sizes!
Anyone else bother by his left pocket riding up.
Yes!
what do we call this genre of style that we're into? when anyone asks me i say -
"Rugged heritage workwear with a touch of mid-century rock'n'roll"
or something like that but its a bit of a mouthful, is there anything a bit snappier?
I just call it “work wear” or “heritage work wear” rolls off the tongue better
