Rarely does a garment symbolize the American workforce like Levi’s Vintage Clothing Type 1 Jacket. In 1936 Levi’s produced this regular-fit jacket using Cone Mills red selvedge fabric for the first time. This unofficial uniform of the working man has exposed copper rivets, a copper-pronged cinch-back, a single breast pocket, a double pleated front and the Two Horse label marked XX for quality, and a rigid finish.
