Description

The Iron Heart IHJ-49-BRN Modified Type III Jacket in Brown Roughout is an improved, old-school classic, crafted from Japanese Split Steerhide Leather and made by FourSpeed Japan exclusively for Iron Heart. This robust riding piece is suitable as casual outerwear with a new vintage appeal. Based on the classic Type III Trucker Jacket debuted by Levi's in 1967, the pattern features a modified body lengthened beyond the belt line for a more modern look. This Steerhide is tanned by a small-lot producer in Himeji, Japan, split to a weight suitable for garment construction, then flipped to the flesh side and brushed for a textured appearance that will matte and patina with heavy wear. This specialized Modified Type III has a tailored classic fit and is fully lined with military-grade cotton twill, with two internal snapped "gun pockets" for secure retention. This dutiful and durable roughout leather Trucker has been refined and crafted with the signature Iron Heart Type III features, including buttoned flap-front welted chest pockets, welt hand pockets, and copper buttons for the front placket, cuffs, and back hem tabs. Built for the biker and over-engineered to start, this Brown Split Steer Roughout Modified Type III will deliver a lifetime of durability in an unmistakable design. The 49-J strikes the balance between climate and culture-appropriate, making it a year-round go-to for a look that's ready for a life on the road.
