Description

The Dehen 1920 Weekender Jacket is a unique all-season, limited-edition jacket made from a dutiful Indigo 12 oz. Japanese Woven Sashiko cloth inspired by martial arts and reinforcement cloths used since the 17th century. Woven in Japan on a three-dimensional loom using thick and deeply indigo-dyed warp and weft yarns, this sashiko cloth is once-washed for a raw appearance that will develop a distinct, personalized patina throughout the naturally textured weave. As a modern take on a classic leisure jacket, a throwback combination of tonal accents highlights Dehen's history as an established American heritage staple in a timeless design with navy worsted wool ribbed hem and cuffs made on Dehen's own 1940s circular knitting machines. Furthering this best-in-class garment crafted with authentic American workmanship, the Weekender Jacket comes with welted hand pockets, a vertical snapped interior chest pocket, a military-grade two-way nickel zipper with an interior storm placket reinforced with zigzag stitching, and is fully finished with a satin lining. A hallmark of Dehen's captain of craft status, this Weekender Jacket is for those seeking a rare collectible that will become an outerwear essential with a classic design, color scheme, and material appropriate for the style and seasonal versatility that's equally at home in Kansas or Kyoto.
