The ” jean ” with various names
The abbreviation for “jean” is “jean jumper. However, “jean” is actually a Japanese word, and is generally called “jean jacket” or “denim jacket” in English-speaking countries. Originally, “jean jacket” or “denim jacket” would be closer to the original term, but the term “jean” has become common in Japan, partly because it is more convenient to use.
The jean originated in the 1930s, when Levi’s began manufacturing work jackets to go with jeans. Incidentally, as is well known among denim lovers and vintage freaks, Levi’s has gradually changed the silhouette and details since the first model released in the early 1900s. They are often discussed in four categories in order of oldest to newest: ” First,” “Second,” “Third,” and “Force. It should be noted that this distinction is a designation classified for convenience by Japanese used clothing importers, and is not an official name given by Levi’s. Incidentally, many brands use the ” third type ” as their design base, which is highly regarded in the fashion world.
The differences in design and specifications of each of the four types of jean jackets!
Designs and specifications vary depending on the type of jean. Next, we will focus on each of the four jean types and introduce their features!
Type of Jeans (1) “The “1st Type” of the original design
As the name suggests, the “first type” was designed when the first denim jacket was completed. The detail of folds is present in the front mane. The chest pocket is on the left side of the body only, and is positioned low. Another feature is the strap (cinch back) sewn into the back waistband.

Type 4: “The ‘force type’ is slightly longer than the third type.
The “4th type” is extremely similar in appearance to the 3rd type. It is characterized by a silhouette designed to be moderately slim and longer in length compared to previous generations of jean jackets. The characteristic V-shaped slope on the front, which is seen on the 3rd type, is designed to be gentle and easy to sew. Although the above features are listed above, there are various theories as to where the 4th type begins and ends, as the 4th type appeared soon after the release of the 3rd type. For example, it is said that there is a theory that the “70506” with handwarmer pockets is called the 4th type. Each type is a common name to distinguish the vintage denim jacket’s age, so it is recommended to take it as a reference information.
Since the origin of the jean jacket is work wear, it tends to give a wild look if worn in an appropriate manner. The next section introduces seven tricks while keeping in mind the important points to achieve a sophisticated look!
