Monster Sashiko Field Jacket

The inspiration for this style is the traditional Sashiko sewing technique. Used as a functional sewing technique for repairs and for decorative effects, Sashiko is respected for its handmade style, prominent stitching, and patterning effects. This style uses a Dobby weave to recreate the prominent stitch and geometric lines, and then dials up the texture to absolutely beautiful levels. Imagine the plushest cotton rope interlaced together to create a hand woven look, huge texture, and flowing feel. That's what we have here. Even better is the rugged 12 ounce weight, giving this style true vintage appeal.

This beautiful indigo fabric starts out a dark inky blue and ages beautifully like raw denim. Indigo can be darker in person. Dye bleed is expected with this piece.

Each jacket starts with our historically inspired, updated take on the classic military Field Jacket. Defining the overall spirit of the jacket is the large stand collar that flows down into a nicely drawn-in waist, giving our jacket its iconic look while making it clean and well tailored. Four large snap closed cargo pockets sit on the front body. You get a large YKK zipper along with button closures, which, when used, are nicely concealed under a placket to keep the front clean. Huge bar tacks provide separation and reinforcement along the placket. It's the ideal blend of history and modern sensibility and fit.
