2nd Academic Made to Order Type II Leather Jacket Black
MADE TO ORDER
The Type II jacket from the 1950s stands as a quintessential piece in men's fashion that every denim enthusiast ought to include in their collection. However, one might consider elevating this classic with a Buffalo Hide leather version.
2nd Academic’s interpretation of the iconic Type II Jacket represents a bold foray into traditional, reproduction Americana.The front knife pleats and dual chest pockets are indicative of the jacket’s classic roots.
The silhouette mirrors that of a traditional Type II jacket from the 1950s, characterised by broad shoulders, a slightly slim chest, a relaxed waist, a short length and the brown stitching highlights the aging process. We recommend choosing your usual size for the best fit.
2nd Academic leather jackets are not designed to be fitted like a suit; rather, after a period of 'breaking in,' they soften and adapt to the shape of your body. Our jackets are crafted for actual use. We do not run a production line or keep a stock of jackets ready for dispatch; each jacket is made to order and meticulously handcrafted.
