[~70's] Europe Vintage Raglan Sleeve Black Moleskin Zip Up Jacket

Estimated around the 1970s, "Raglan Sleeve Black" made in EuropeMoleskin Zip-up Jacket'.

Introducing a heresy and sophisticated piece that adds a touch of traditional workwear.

When it comes to black mall skin jackets, they are a typical French vintage item.
However, this individual can be said to be completely different from the workwear "sole".

The details such as the raglan sleeve design, zip-up design on the front, pocket shapes in each section, and the use of snap buttons will make it seem a lot strange for those who are used to French workwear.

This piece has a classic atmosphere, but has an attractive design that gives off a sense of modern nuance.

There is a snap button flap pocket on the left chest, giving it an exquisite balance of practicality and design.

What's even more interesting is the hand warmer pockets on both hems.
The corners are unique in how they are dropped and cutting, and they fit well in your hands, making them practical enough for everyday use.

The front is zip-up with a zip zipper.

There are traces on the inside of the neck where the label was originally sewn on, but unfortunately this one is missing.

Expands the range of motion around the armsAnother great feature is the "raglan sleeve" design.
Even if worn oversized, the fabric will fall along the shoulder line, making it possible to wear it with a beautiful silhouette. 

This individual uses "Moleskin," a classic French vintage fabric.

As the name suggests, it is said to have been named this because of the texture of a mole's skin-like fabric.

As you can see, it has a smooth texture and thickness that you wouldn't expect from cotton.

The secret lies in the "weave of the thread."
Moleskin is a fabric made up of a thread weaving method called "Red Weave".

A sash weave is considered to be one of the fabric structures (mihara structures) made up of five or more warp and weft threads, and the threads are very little floating, and only the warp or weft thread appears to be visible on the surface.
It is characterized by its high density, thick fabric, excellent flexibility, smooth and glossy.

It is probably because of the highly dense moleskin that is thick and flexible, which is why it was used as workwear for people who work in harsh environments such as workwear.

This is a piece that uses a luxurious black mole skin, which has a small number of balls even in French vintages, and the fabric is chewy and is comparable to the rest.

The color is a matte black with a slightly fade.

This color, which adds an exquisite fade to the deep black, perfectly combines ruggedness with vintage-like nuances.
The matte texture encompassing strength and tranquility adds calmness and dignity to the entire style.

The well-used texture creates a sophisticated look and a manly feel.
The synergistic effect with work-style designs creates a simple yet deep look.

A versatile color that blends easily with any color and can be used regardless of the season.
Its "calculated roughness" is its appeal, while being suitable for everyday use.

I can't check the size notation, butI think it falls in the Japanese size range "S ~ M".

Even when looking at the actual measurements, the size is small, so if you have a small figure, you can wear it without any problems.
It looks great whether you wear it in the perfect size or the oversized size.

There are signs of wear such as dirt, scuffs, fraying, and missing tags, but there are no major damage that can cause problems with wearing it, so I think it's still possible to wear it.

Moleskin jackets that don't fall under the frame of French work are extremely rare, with such an "odd" appearance.
This is a piece with a strong presence that gives depth to your style and highlights the individuality of the wearer, so if you are looking for it, don't miss this opportunity.
