Deluxeware 7640 1940's Denim Shirt
The Deluxeware 7640 1940's Denim Shirt stands as one of the brand's most popular shirts and a definitive statement piece in their collection. This original design challenges conventional replicas, meticulously developed to achieve the perfect balance between heritage authenticity and contemporary wearability. Crafted from 10.5oz indigo denimusingAmerican Memphis cotton with six-layer indigo rope-dyeing, this shirt showcases 3/1 twill weave construction and rich, evolving textures that develop character over time.
The fabric is woven on vintage shuttle looms in Ibara, Okayama Prefecture, creating naturally uneven yarn textureand exceptional vertical fade characteristics. Sewing occurs entirely in-house in Odate, Akita Prefecture using Union Special sewing machines and vintage equipment dating from the late 1800s to the 1960s. This long-selling item since Deluxeware's founding fuses subtle design elements from classic shirts, coveralls, and jackets into a slim, tailored silhouette. Borrowing details from 1940s work shirts, the inner collar is lined with an 11oz duck canvas and topped off with a throat tab. Riveted buttons are tucked away under a hidden placket, creating a smooth front that draws attention to the unique chest pocket. The 100% cotton construction delivers authentic aging and feel while representing Deluxeware's philosophy of evolving American vintage for future generations.
Fit Notes: Deluxeware shirts tend to run small compared to American sizing. Because of their Japanese sizing, we usually recommend going up one size. In addition, Deluxeware always offers USM and USL sizes, which are larger than XL and feature a more regular, less tailored cut. For the best fit, we always recommend checking the size chart before choosing your size. The fabric is sanforized, so shrinkage will be minimal
