3SIXTEEN DJ-100x Type 3s Denim Jacket Indigo Selvedge

About this product

The Type 3s is 3sixteen's approach to the classic Type III denim jacket, a piece that is undeniably ubiquitous with denim and Americana. First introduced in the late 1960's, the Type III replaced the older, workwear-focused Type IIs, and has been the defacto denim jacket ever since. With it's unmistakable 'V' stitches, angled chest pockets, handwarmer pockets, lack of pleats, and a slightly longer and more tapered fit when compared to its predecessors, the Type III is a truly timeless piece of menswear that looks good with everything. Everyone needs a good denim jacket, and this is one of the best.

3sixteen's proprietary 14.5oz selvedge denim has been custom woven for them by Kuroki Mills for over 15 years, long-since establishing itself as the brand's core raw denim fabric. This denim features an uncharacteristically soft hand for raw denim, offering a soft feel on the interior of the jeans for a much more comfortable break-in process, without sacrificing any of the satisfying break in or fade potential. Featuring two chest and two handwarmer pockets, soft corduroy lining in the cuffs and pocketbags, crosscut back yoke, and selvedge cut placket, the Type 3s is finished with branded nickel buttons, zigzag stand-collar reinforcement stitching, an interior roughout leather patch, and chainstitched construction.
