This product is based on the western gabardine jacket that was very popular in the 1950s.
Due to the rise of dude ranches in the 1950s, western fashion became very popular mainly on the West Coast.
In the 1950s, rock and roll emerged among young people, combining hillbilly western music with black blues music.
The formula that rock and roll = western style was established.
This was also the most prosperous period in the postwar America, and clothes made with a lot of rayon, an artificial silk that had just been developed in the military, were mass-produced.
It was against this background that the jacket was born, and this western style rayon gabardine sports jacket is what we call this.
Dry Bones designed and produced this product based on a vintage model, with further improvements.
The fabric is rayon, just like back then, but it is woven in satin, not gabardine. It has a more lustrous finish, so it has a good color, and it is thicker, so it feels heavy.
The special piping produced at the time is also reproduced. It is a very time-consuming accessory, with ultra-fine rayon grosgrain tape folded and sewn in two colors, black and white.
The embroidery is pinpoint western pattern, just like back then. It is reproduced with a special embroidery machine.
The lining is crimson, expressing a chic fifties style.
The front buttons and cufflinks are pearl hatch, just like back then. Moreover, they are tetra pearls with a diamond design and white pearls (paste) inside. Popular buttons since the 1950s.
This is the ultimate masterpiece that has fascinated many rockabilly people since back then, and recently it has attracted attention as famous Hollywood actors have been wearing it.
We are proud to have beautifully reproduced the vintage while evolving it.
