>>6560356
these are not denim, but waxed cotton

Visvim and other japanese brands

>>6560384


Thanks man.

>>6560394

yeah but theyre cut like a denim jacket, theyre grosgrain not denim. same effect basically.

>>6560394
It's denim, lol.

>>6560402

also the cut is way better than almost any denim jacket ive seen, the arms are set higher, are slimmer and elongated, way more flattering.

>>6560394
you know denim is cotton right?

this is waxed denim

killer

>>6560431
this is standard cotton

>>6560418
i had a levi's that i dated to probably the mid to late 80s. made in france. kind of a cheesy wash but it had a great fit, high armholes, sleeves could stand to be slimmer but i cut them off, currently it's sitting in my sewing room waiting for some drkshdw fleece sleeves to be sewn to it but i put it off because they are massively different sizes and im 2 scurred 2 cut em
i also have a modern levis that i got 4 free, looks cool oversized

>>6560458

yeah certain levis jackets are a nice fit, but definitely less severe slimness in the sleeves

the other one i really like is the asymmetric helmut lang one that has one leather sleeve and one denim sleeve, and the undercollar covered in leather, and half of the hem covered in leather

>>6560483

>>6560476

here is the helmut lang one

>>6560452
this junya x levi's one is very good too

Hey dude would you be able to help me?
I'm looking to turn this jacket into a denim vest, but the pit construction is odd. Normally I'd just cut the sleeve off but I think i'd have to re-enforce it or something. What do you think the best way to do it would be?
Pit construction in next post.

>>6560682

>>6560693
Or should I just give up and on-sell it?

>>6560693
based rick and his pivot sleeves
it will slowly fray thru as you wash it if you don't finish that gusset
you should leave it with rick's goat sleeves imo

anyone know where i can find one with a similar fade to pic, that's also clean looking?

mark the armhole with chalk or something, and the pin along the line that you mark.

from the armhole line, measure out 1" onto the sleeve and make a mark, and do this repeatedly on the whole sleeve, creating a 1" line from the edge of the armhole onto the sleeve.

cut the sleeve on the line you just marked, leaving a 1" band of denim extending from the armhole.

You now have a build in facing, that you can press in half, and fold to the inside of the jacket and press along the whole armhole. then topstitch through the body onto the edge of your facing. you might have to clip the facing in certain places to the edge of the armhole, which might be a bit messy, but its probably the easiest way to make it into a vest with clean armholes.

if you want to be even lazier, you can just mark the armhole the way i said in the first place, and just cut along the line and leave it raw.

>>6560727
cut out the gusset and flash side moob

>>6560727

the other thing you could do, is cut it raw, and rip the sleeves flat and cut bias strips out of them and use them to bias bind the whole armhole.

>>6560706
Pivot sleeves? is that what I should be researching?
Unfortunately I'm a bit of a curlbro and the sleeves just don't fit at all. The chest is perfect though which is what drew me to the vest idea.

>>6560763

you really dont have to bother researching pivot sleeves unless youre into learning about patternmaking in a little depth

>>6560746
>tfw womens tank
>side moob gushing out

worth it for dems spagety straps tho
i couldnt find the image w/ michele on the beach w/ rick in dubai
psure it's the same model

>>6560786
and then i found it when googling 'yohji yamamoto christian'
excuse me internet.

>>6560786

>>6560782
I don't think I should, your how-to confused me enough as it is. Thanks though, I really appreciate it.

>>6560786
>>6560804
the same tank worn by justin bieber :^)

>>6560829
ruse'd
he has the mens ver. (I think)

>>6560845
one of the pics i saw had really strangly looking straps def womens plus the length

>>6560720
thats a denim shirt not a jacket, the difference of thickness changes how it fades

>>6560845
When did he get a forearm sleeve tat? looks a bit silly.

>>6560786
mines too big to wear w/o anything underneath b/c of side boob

mite sell it & try to find a smaller one tbh that's a pretty big issue for me

>>6560720
here ya go breh - http://us.levi.com/product/index.jsp?productId=13001315

>>6560917
What size ya got m8?
Mines a small if you'd like to trade? - >>6560682
s2s - 16.5"
p2p - 22.5"
sleeve - 30"
f length - 22"
b length - 24"

>>6560930
that post's about the limo tank my dude

>>6560917
??
why is it too big b/c of sideboob? Does it cause an impression or s/t?
paint sketches in order or s.t

Whatever the case, hardluck homi.
p.s. rick favours me

>>6560881
it might be this one but i think it's because his 'bling' is obscuring the strap.
yeah i dont think it's the womens ver because but...its kindve hard to tell

>>6560959
the black strap is from the models bra not the rick tank

also rick makes that same style tank for men too

>>6560966
but hes probably wearing a womens tank cuz hes a 5'5 manlet lol

>>6560949
probably a combination of the low armholes + big boobs

put more thought into your answer numbnuts

>>6560966
im not 100% familiar but i think the cuts are different
i wouldnt be suprised if both appeared untouched in both collections, but i think it's primarily a womens design as if it fucking matters

>>6560973
>timber has big boobs
lmfao

>>6560949
front sits too low -- basically spilling out tier every time i've worn it. still looks nice as a layer but i wanted to wear it by itself

>>6560973
you have me confused w/ someone else

>>6560966
doesn't matter either way both are basically unisex as are all rick clothes

go take advantage of all the cheap lilies stuff on yoox rn

>>6560987
either way huge armholes will give you sideboob

Even on my tanks you can see my nipples if I'm bending over or looking at the right angle if I'm sitting down

>you being retarded yet again
lmfao

>>6560995
idk/idc who you are just read turnleft's dumb comment as I was scrolling and had to respond

mmm

>>6561030
looks exactly like the levis denim but worse.

shit, forgot image

Since we're on the topic what are good color pants / jeans to wear with a raw levi denim jacket. My raw jeans are basically the same color as them so I don't want to do that. I'm thinking chinos but there has to be other options as well

>>6561229
Maybe black jeans? I wear black jeans and a black denim jacket and it goes pretty well

>>6561229
definitely not black jeans

khaki is easy mode

light wash jeans can work

so can gray

imo engineered garments makes killer t5s

not shown: 2 large interior pockets

>>6561390
yessssssssss

>>6561390
these could potentially be dope

stacks all the way up to my shoulders brah

>>6561157

don't WANT to be a denim dan *

>>6561753
I feel like everyone can pull off a denim jacket.
I think black is much more versatile than blue denim though
