Mackinnon Edition 1940s 14.5oz Raw Selvedge Denim - Brake House - Indigo - 1

Mackinnon Edition 1940s 14.5oz Raw Selvedge Denim

$177.00

Crafted under wartime constraints between 1942 and 1945, the Mobilization model recreates the rugged, simplified denim issued during America’s military production surge.

The Mackinnon Special Edition honors a serviceman’s personal field modifications — restoring wartime-simplified elements such as waistband bucklebacks and pocket flaps for improved function. Made with the same coarse, slub-heavy denim used in the standard model, this version includes an uncoated iron buckle designed to rust naturally, a red triangle tab made from artificial silk prone to fraying, and added reinforcement details not found in the base wartime spec.

    Mackinnon Edition, 1940s Wartime Denim

    Named after a U.S. soldier who modified his uniform out of necessity, this edition revives personal wartime customizations — like bucklebacks and flapped pockets — lost to government restrictions.
    Each pair is built from 14.5oz rough indigo selvedge and features hardware designed to oxidize over time, telling its own aging story.
