This time, GIZEMO interprets the classic M-1951 PARKA with Japanese denim fabric. The hardware details and tailoring still restore the style of the first-generation military version of M-51 PARKA. The lining of the hat is made of that year’s military green fabric with the original style mimeograph. . Thick woolen blend inside the pockets, pleats on the back of the sleeves, and drawstring at the waist... We position this piece not just as a simple fashionable fishtail coat, but as a combination of the M51 fishtail coat. Details are preserved and reflected as much as possible, allowing for the optional wolf fur hood and wool liner to cope with cold weather, while also having the possibility of the original color denim fabric fading and growing.

Loose military cut, using custom-made 14.5oz 14.5oz denim fabric with 14.5oz pink earrings from Okayama, Japan in the style of the 1950s. The production process remains the same as M-1951PARKA. However, due to the heavy weight of the denim fabric, the production difficulty is greatly increased compared to the military version, especially Customized UNIVERSAL cotton webbing and Japanese retro zipper, optional wolf fur hood and liner.

We customized the denim fabric produced in Okayama, Japan, which uses American cotton yarn. The textile technology is based on the 50s style. The fabric has a strong texture, 14.5oz gold thickness, and specially customized pink ears.
Shanzhong Textile is in charge of planning, starting from the selection of cotton. First, I found my ideal among the cotton collected from all over the world, and then started weaving. Through highly computerized textile technology, in order to reproduce the retro expression, the uneven shape of the thread we are pursuing is randomly repeated. It is easy to evenly line the production line. On the other hand, it is difficult to maintain high quality while naturally expressing unevenness in order to make the thickness of the line strong and weak, close to vintage, as we are pursuing. The values called irregular threads are only required for jeans.

A total of 9 G-type automatic looms "GL-9" (produced in 1980) manufactured by Toyota Co., Ltd. Automatic Loom were launched using the old loom TOYOTA GL-9 at the old logistics warehouse site opposite the head office. Because it is an old model, there are no new replacement parts, so there are 2 discarded looms used as parts. This is a loom that often requires maintenance by skilled craftsmen. The old force loom is indispensable on the basis of expressing the retro style. It means that the shuttle wrapped with weft threads goes back and forth from both ends of the fabric like sewing warp threads, making it Compared with the current mainstream innovative looms, the production efficiency of the loom with Selvich (lugs) that prevents the fabric from being tangled at both ends is 3:1 or less. Because the innovative loom is a high-speed rotating loom, it requires strong thread tension. Although the surface of the woven fabric is even and beautiful, it is difficult to express the personality of the fabric with a flat expression. On the other hand, old-fashioned power looms can be fine-tuned through the techniques of skilled craftsmen such as the method of tensioning the warp tension and the speed of weaving. Based on this, the original texture of the thread, the uneven feel, and the uneven weave create various personalities in the texture (top). The old power looms were not machines that could be controlled by a single button, but were the tools of a skilled craftsman.

Choose UNIVERSAL Japan-made retro zippers. This size 10 zipper shape often appeared on the original military version of M-65 jackets and M-65 windbreakers in the 1960s and 1970s. Japanese-made zippers are not only exquisite in craftsmanship, but also have another important reason. It uses pure cotton webbing. The advantage of this is that it can fade as the clothes age. Domestically produced YKK, TALON and IDEAL are generally nylon webbing, and their retro feel is not as good as pure cotton webbing.
