I was never really a fan of denim jackets—at least not until recently. That changed when I picked up a Levi’s piece that had been catching my eye for a while, thanks to its wild stitching on the back and a perfect light bluish wash.
My main issue with denim jackets used to be the “double denim” look. I often wear jeans, and I never liked how the full denim combo looked on most people. On top of that, I didn’t think denim jackets were that practical for spring’s unpredictable weather—especially when a sudden rain cloud rolls in out of nowhere.
But both of those concerns went out the window with this one. When you get the shade right, the contrast between your jacket and jeans actually works beautifully. And as for the weather? At least near the Mediterranean, where I live, it’s rarely a real problem.
This jacket wears like a sweatshirt—it’s soft, light, and incredibly comfortable. It’s perfect for cool spring mornings, breezy evenings, or even summer days when you need just a touch of warmth without overheating.
As you can see in the photos, mine’s a bit of a wild one—and I love that about it. It took me a while to figure out Levi’s sizing and all the different cuts they offer, but once I did, I finally started appreciating their denim for real. Still, you don’t need to go for something bold. A clean black or gray denim jacket can be just as versatile and stylish.
Throwing it on instantly makes me feel younger, more relaxed, and just a bit more put together. Sometimes, that’s all you need.
Cheers!
