spellbound jkt1 Spellbound Denim Deck Jacket

Japanese brand Spellbound, straight out of Okayama, bring us this amazing Deck Jacket. Inspired by the USN’s skilled use of denim during world war two, they’ve added a couple of extra details that give this a chore jacket feel alongside its seafaring roots. A neat shawl collar, 4 reinforced pockets, leaf logo donut buttons, 100% cotton, we’re told the denim on this one is exceptional. There have been many repros with this model but without sticking too tightly to the rules Spellbound have created one of the best on the market. Find it at Sivletto.
