Absolutely a timeless look. The new cut looks good. In fact it would be a favorite in my collection if it had a little more range of motion. I do have the old fit which was slimmer in shoulders and arm holes.
@Bennarion, the double helix is more comfortable but the hide on Rainbow Country is full of grain and smells of shinki goodness. All that said, I normally find myself grabbing the DH.

Thank you! I really enjoy the fit of it, but it’s definitely a pattern that’s intended to be more snug.

I have yet to try the DH and I’m definitely eyeing the RC. They make such great jackets!

Fantastic jacket!

And it seems that you have a whole collection of jackets from Japan.
At 5'9" and 145lb the Japanese second-hand market was a blessing and a curse. I fell down the rabbit hole pretty far, but I pretty much completely revamped my wardrobe of jackets, shirts, and denim.

Jackets include that Mushmans (made by Electric Leather Studio), Sugar Cane, Mister Freedom (made by Sugar Cane), The Blurred Clothing Co, Westride, Studio D'Artisan, The Flat Head, Tenderloin, Jelado (vest), Dry Bones, Style Eyes, Blue Trick, and Freewheelers. I also repatriated Vanson and Lost Worlds.

Trucker week. Johnson type 1.

Hmm, I havn´t really cosidered this before.

I very much like how JL interprets this type. I always find Type 1´s slightly busy as mostly the eye is drawn to the pleats; JL amphasizes the pocket, which works well, IMO.

I´d actually prefer ANY trucker without pleats/front -stitching, but then it wouldn´t be a trucker anymore,m right?!
