Shawl collared denim jacket
(2024-12-17)
It is everything I’ve come to expect from WPG. Well made, stylish and affordable . Looks great for what we call Santa Fe casual and I can’t wait to break it in fully.

It's a great piece of work.
I wear a 38, but with broad shoulders. I went with a 42 knowing I was going to put it through several hot cycles and the dryer. Now, it's perfect.
I added a cigarette pocket on the left breast made from denims from the Salvation Army. It's clearly an 'after market' 'field mod' and not an attempt to look like a match.
I have to agree that the white stitching is all wrong for Navy, (right for Army) and not a matter of "different manufacturers". Especially distracting are the buttonholes because they're so noticeable.
I put it through 3 boxes of Rit color remover, which took down the blue and put some of that run-off color on the thread, then re-dyed it using the Rit palette for my preferred faded color, and even then, the buttonhole stitching was too light a shade of blue. The thread might be part synthetic.
Please use navy blue, cotton thread.
Otherwise, as usual, great product, great price, quick shipping and delivery. I will continue to buy from WPG.
