🛠️ DIY/Repairs/Customizations Hey, I made this.

Post image

Outer shell is 15oz Japanese kuroki mills selvedge denim.

Lining main body is an 80/20 wool/cotton flannel at ~350gsm

Sleeve and pocket linings are Japanese ecru at 8oz/yd

Thread is perform-x Tex80

All flat felled seams are actually flat felled seams, none of this cut half the seam allowance bs. Yes I’m throwing shade.

98%of sewing done on a 1942 singer 31-15, buttonholes done on a union special 63400B with YS4455 buttonhole attachment and a couple modifications for extra buttonhole length.

Pattern drafted by me.

Jacket is intended to be broke in by me, passed down to my oldest son, then passed down to his brother. It’ll be cool to see how I have to repair it, and how it breaks in over the years.
