Lee 101j denim jacket 1980s

Best I can tell from my limited tag research. Probably the last batch or two before they started adding handwarmer pockets and still were union made and all that.

I bought 2 of these. The other is a little longer. This one has better denim. No stains, rips, or fraying. Pretty much what you'd buy as new if you bought a manufacturer faded jacket. But that extra inch makes a big difference for me on getting a jacket into the rotation. So if you shorter or can just rock the short jacket look, your win my loss.

Color wise id say a mid blue with contrast fading on some of the seams. First pic probably the closest on my monitor.

$75 ppff including conus shipping.

I'll come down to $65 on this one. Trying to clear the closet some.

Is it orginally tagged a 42? I'm interested.

Yo buddy! Unfortunately no signs of any size tags. If it was on that white tag, everything on that has long been faded away. I've seen some models that have the size right under the main tag, but no signs of that ever being here. It is probably a 42, maybe a 44 since it's about a 22 ptp probably with some shrinkage over time.

For reference, I'm 6'0 about 190 now with holiday weight LOL. Fits great, maybe room for a light to mid weight sweatshirt. My main issue is it's too short for my tastes. I got another one with same specs except it has another inch on the back and front, and that makes all the difference at 6'0. Maybe 5'10 and under would work great, unless you just like that shorter style.

Anyway. Worst comes to worst, I'm going to keep for parts down the road LOL. My other one is a little more banged up than this one, so I'll probably steal the collar and other seams, buttons, etc. down the road if I need to make some repairs.

Sold. Thanks TFL
