The IHJ-134-ODG from Iron Heart draws on the timeless looks of Levi’s iconic Type II. This updated version swaps out the denim for a lightweight, Oxford cloth - making it the perfect laying piece for those warmer days and cooler evenings. The cloth clocks in at a light and breezy 9oz and comes paraffin-coated for extra softness and durability. It’s reactive dyed, too. So you can expect those lovely olive hues to stick around for the long haul.
Here, Iron Heart have retained much of what makes the Type II such an iconic piece. They honour the knife pleat detailing, lower-set chest pockets, and rear cinch belt that defined the ‘50s original. Where things differ is the fit. Gone is the cropped and boxy silhouette. Instead, Iron Heart have worked their magic to create a slimmer and slightly longer fit, so you get all the classic detailing of a Type II with the added benefit of modern wearability. It’s a classically informed piece that will complement your current wardrobe effortlessly.
