Limited-Edition Long John x Blue Blanket Collaboration Denim Jacket
The Long John x Blue Blanket collab is a special limited-edition denim jacket that is based on a vintage jacket from my denim archive. The jacket is made in a small run, 100% crafted in Italy.
The Design And Fabric Of The Jacket
The design of the Long John x Blue Blanket collab jacket is based on one of the most iconic denim jacket styles ever produced. We tweaked the original jacket to modern standards, without losing the original look and feel. The design shows two slightly slanted breast pockets with flap closure, zig-zag reinforcement stitching, and stitched pleats on the front.
The jacket is made with a beautiful 12,5oz left-hand deadstock unwashed (rigid) denim fabric from the 1980s. The fabric has a deep indigo tone that will age nicely with time and wear.
In the neck, there’s the specially developed Long John x Blue Blanket collaboration Jacron patch under the hanging-loop. On the back of the jacket, there’re original black cat-eye buttons on the adjusters, and a woven Blue Blanket brand label.
The Authentic Chainstitched Embroidery
The Long John x Blue Blanket collab jacket is decorated with the authentic chain-stitch embroidery technique. A technique that is slowly disappearing due to the time-consuming process.
On the front of the collab jacket are two chain stitch embroideries, each above the chest pockets. On the right pocket shows ‘BB’, which refers to Blue Blanket, while on the left ‘L.John’ is embroidered as an abbreviation to Long John. The embroidery is made in yellow, a reference to embroideries that can be seen many often on vintage denim jackets.
The back of the jacket shows a huge ecru horseshoe embroidery written ‘1st’ on the top in yellow, as this jacket is our first collaboration style. At the end of the horseshoe there’s the year we decided to join forces, so ‘2022’, also in yellow. And, in the middle, we celebrate our denim friendship with the yellow ‘Blue Blanket for Long John’ embroidery.
