[~50's] French Vintage Black Moleskin Work Jacket "Dead Stock"

It was a French-made Black Mallskin Work Jacket, estimated to be around the 1950s.

Arrived in rare dead stock.

"Work Jacket" is an indispensable part of French vintage style

Although its name is "Work," it is actually an extremely practical work jacket that was widely provided and worn by the working class working in various sites, including coal mining, factories, railways, and farms in France from the late 19th century to the mid-20th century.

At the time, due to the advances in industrialization and urbanization in France, many workers were engaged in the field that involved manual work, and this work jacket was an indispensable item as the clothing that supported their daily work.

It is characterized by its practical structure designed for harsh working environments, such as the front flapping, deep patch pockets, and a box silhouette that does not hinder movement, and is known to have been widely supported by people of all occupations.

The fabrics used are also a wide variety of products, and it has been confirmed that they were used differently depending on the environment, region, and season, such as cotton twill, moleskin, cotton picket, corduroy, wool, and linen.
Among them, the moleskin fabric, which combines durability and heat retention, is particularly highly regarded among workers who work in heavy work, and is one of the specifications that is still highly popular in the vintage market today.

At that time, companies, government agencies, and local governments often distributed it to employees as uniforms or supplies, and many individuals still have the company name, manufacturer, and number of items printed on the inner tags.

For this reason, despite being a mass-produced product, the details differ significantly depending on the production area and age, and are still highly regarded as being a strong reflection of French labor culture and historical background.

There is no other workwear that suits the word "functional beauty" so well, and "Work Jacket" is a masterpiece that conveys its simple and powerful appearance as a symbol of French workwear.

This individual uses the classic French vintage fabric "Moleskin".

As the name suggests, Moleskin has a moist and smooth feel reminiscent of "mole skin."

When you touch it, you will directly feel the smoothness, firm thickness, and elegant luster that you wouldn't expect from cotton.

The secret lies in the "satin weave" and is one of the Mihara organizations, which consists of five or more warp and weft threads.

The thread does not float easily, and it appears that only one thread on one side is visible on the surface, making it clogged, thick, flexible, and smooth and have a strong luster.

This high density fabric is woven with excellent abrasion resistance and wind resistance, making it easy to understand why it has been used in workwear for people working in harsh environments.

This individual is luxuriously made from "Black Mall Skin," which is known for being less distributed than ink blue.

Because it is a versatile black, it can be used as a tightening function regardless of style, and the dull luster and deep shading create the more you wear it and wash it, allowing you to enjoy a unique aging.
The design is based on practical use, and is great that it is also fully functional for everyday use.

The inside comes with a white "embroidered tag" made by "VÉTEMENTS DE TRAVAIL DE QUALITÉ" red.
Many people are probably looking for an individual with an embroidered tag that symbolizes an older age.

Regardless of age, brand or condition, work jackets made with black mole skin are a rare category with a small number of balls.
This piece is a piece that combines practicality and aesthetics at a high level, allowing you to experience the elegance of French work.

Although the size indication cannot be confirmed, I think it corresponds to "XL to XXL" in Japanese sizes.

Even when looking at the actual measurements, the size is large, so even people with large figures can wear it without any problems.
It looks great whether you wear it in the perfect size or the oversized size.

I'm sure you'll probably be seeing a black mall skin jacket in this large size, so I highly recommend it to anyone who has given up on the size.

The condition is alsoThis is a dead stock item, so it is in perfect condition and is also recommended for those looking for a beautiful item.
Of course, there are no major damage that can cause problems with wearing it, so I think it's still possible to wear it.
