Future Treasure : Japanese Levis Big E Reversible Vest

What comes to mind when you hear the word Levi’s Big E? Let’s meet another item from the history.

You have probably seen many of them but I have to say this one is not an average one. Capturing the spirit of American workwear from the tough time, this authentic Levi’s Big E vest from Japan is one-of-a-kind you will never see so often, especially with the particular lining.

Have a close look on the lining, it’s indigoless color with 4 colored herringbone embroidery on top. Take a look at the front pocket, you’ll find the famous red Tab, the word LEVI’S® here is in all capital letters. Yes, it is what we’re looking for. The Tab with LEVI’S (also known as “Big E”) means that your jeans are from before 1971 and really desirable.

The vest is featuring the front tie detail with a genuine cowskin leather string. And to make it more fun, this future treasure’s reversible so you can enjoy switching from one look to another, back and forth all you want.

DENIMFUTURE FIT GUIDE TO BLUE JEANS

FLARED
Flared jeans, wide-leg jeans often sit at your natural waist or just below it, but the seat and thighs of these jeans will have a relaxed or quite loose fit. Back pockets may be larger and deeper on this style of jean. Wide-leg jeans usually have a straight, slightly tapered cut from the thigh to the ankle, but they are very loose through the leg so that the shape of your body is not as easily discernible.

 BAGGY
Baggy jeans are at least 20" in circumference at the hem. Wide leg jeans differ from bell-bottoms in that the entire length of the leg is large in circumference whereas flare or bell-bottom jeans become wider below the knee.

BOOT CUT
Bootcut jeans are the perfect cut for any guy hoping to look fashionable without looking outrageous. This slim cut fits closely (but not tightly) with a slight flare towards the leg opening. Bootcut jeans make sense for most body shapes, too, because they balance the body well.

 RELAXED FIT
Relaxed-fit jeans, which are loosely cut from waist to leg opening, are great for heavier men. The roomier shape of these blue jeans won't accentuate curves and bulges like other cuts will. Thin guys should avoid relaxed-fit jeans, as this cut can look loose and sloppy on skinny legs.

 SKINNY
Skinny jeans are a risky bet for many men, but they have the potential to look hip on the right guy. The skinny jeans club is fairly exclusive, as this ultra-tight fitting cut can make average-to-heavy body types look even larger. This cut should be reserved for the twiggy body shape, which allows skinny jeans to flatter a thin figure. Try this cut with a trendy vintage shoe to complete the look.

SLIM
For those who want the hipster style of skinny jeans but don't make the cut weight-wise, there are slim-fit jeans. This cut of jean is tapered in a similar style to skinny jeans but not to the form-fitting extreme. With slim-fit jeans, you get the best of both worlds: fashion-forward looks and comfort.

STRAIGHT CUT
Straight-leg jeans are the most discreet cut you'll find. Neither tapered nor excessively loose, this conservative style is ideal for those who want their jeans to be simple and classic.
