T-Back Type I Jacket
Cut from our Kuroki 14oz Blackout Selvedge Denim, the T-Back Type I Jacket traces its roots to the earliest era of denim workwear, when fabric widths were narrow and nothing was wasted. The T-Back construction features two panels joined together to form a distinct T-shaped spine, born from necessity—reinforcing the jacket along its center line while maximizing every inch of cloth.
A singular chest pocket, knife pleats, and a rear cinch remain true to the first-generation Type I form, allowing movement while holding structure. Finished with brass hardware, these details were never decorative. They existed for work.
Finished with a blackout selvedge ID, the jacket keeps its character understated—revealed only through wear and time.
Black absorbs everything. Time gives it back. Rope-dyed, this jacket will develop patina and fades with wear and wash.
