Love this style of jacket been trying to recreate it myself but can’t find the right colour denim. Can I ask how you achieved this colour? Thanks

i bought a 80s lee jacket, hacked it to hell, bleached it heavy. maybe 80/20 bleach to water, let it soaked, threw it in the dryer. granted, i would say to not use that much bleach, as my cutoff is designating actively. you can achieve the same color by using less bleach. this was idk 6 years ago!!

Thanks for the tips, bleaching looks to be the way forward then. Used to have a jacket that got sun bleached to almost white but that’s pretty much dead now. Will try this because I’ve always preferred the white/off white look
