TCB jeans_Cats Drive Jacket

When we made Storm Cat's Drive, we were told, "Please make one without the back!"
I've received a lot of messages like this, but actually, this is a Cat's Drive Jacket without a blanket that I made before the one with a lining.

To explain the reason, I thought it would be easier to pursue the silhouette if I first created the pattern without lining and then developed it with lining. This is also because I started from the same state with the lined models up until now.

So, like butterbur sprouts waiting for the snow to melt, I was eagerly looking forward to the day of the announcement. By the way, in Kojima, a normal denim jacket without a lining is called "hitoe" (one-layer). However, a jacket with a blanket attached is not called "futae".

Usually, after a product is released, I think to myself, "If there's a size available, I might try it on," and my salesman mentality kicks in, but this time, I really like the Cat's Drive series, so for the first time, I got ahead and tried on the sample before the product was released.

To be honest, looking back on my jeans journey, I can hardly remember a time when I wore left-hand twill jeans, but it's precisely because I don't remember that that I want to experience it. I liken the words of my favorite Steve Jobs, "connecting the dots," to the fading of jeans, and I hope that the fading that occurs in lines, rather than dots, that are characteristic of left-hand twill jeans, will become connected lines and add color to the lives of all denimheads.

□The fabric is the same as the Storm Cats Drive Jacket & Cats Drive Jeans released at the end of last year. The Cat Boy we made at TCB before was a model from the late 1930s when it was still right-hand twill. The outer fabric this time is a 14.6oz reproduction of the Vintage Lee 101 from the end of the war. It is a 3*1 left-hand twill, which can be called The Lee. It is made of EMOT cotton, a blend of cotton grown in East Memphiz, New Orleans, and Texas, with a warp count of 5.7 and a weft count of 6.7. The blue color unique to Lee and the look of the left-hand twill warp threads running through it give it a nice atmosphere.

The above is reprinted from the TCB website.

Even though it is left-hand twill, it is stiff and has a tight, tapered silhouette.
I'm looking forward to seeing how the color fades!
