TCB's quest to create a matching jacket for the Good Luck jeans led them to unique collaborations and intricate details. This denim jacket, based on a Boss of The Road piece from the early 1880s, features straight-line patterns, flat felled seams, and dart stitches for reinforcement. TCB replicated various elements, including button sizes and hand-sewn buttonholes, maintaining historical accuracy.
The jacket boasts extensive use of selvedge fabric, even in unexpected places like armholes and yokes, showcasing TCB's commitment to authenticity. They incorporated distinctive details such as rounded collars and careful stitching on the name tag. Additionally, TCB utilized a special washing process, deviating from typical hot water washing, to preserve the jacket's vintage character.
TCB's exclusive sewing thread, meticulously chosen with input from a thread expert, ensures an authentic look and fading. The jacket's buttons, constructed differently from modern designs, come in a three-part format, adding to its unique charm. TCB's dedication to detail extends to reproducing 150-year-old 2-by-1 fabric, likely of Indian origin, with irregular threads for a vintage appearance.
This reproduction reflects TCB's commitment to historical accuracy and craftsmanship, resulting in a denim jacket that pays homage to the past while embracing its unique character.
