TOWNCRAFT / Black Derby Style Jacket
A modern update of the brand's derby jacket from the 1960s.
The fabric is TC WEATHER, a supple and soft fabric unique to cotton. In addition, Thermolite is used for the padding, which is lightweight and has excellent heat retention properties, much like down.
Based on the XL size of the time, the silhouette has been adjusted to fit in with the present, and this is a gem that has been completed into an item that attracts not only the youth of the time, but also people of today.

TOWN CRAFT
Launched in 1927, TOWN CRAFT is one of JC Penney’s most iconic in-house brands, standing alongside BIC MAC and PAY-DAY. Drawing inspiration from vintage garments of the 1950s to 1970s, the brand continues to create comfortable, well-crafted clothing adapted for modern life.
The jacket is made from soft TC WEATHER cotton fabric, known for its natural drape and smooth hand feel. The inner lining in a subtle purple tone adds a hint of individuality and contrast.
Filled with lightweight yet highly insulating Thermolite padding, the jacket balances warmth and comfort while maintaining a voluminous silhouette for a well-structured appearance.
A Reimagined Classic
The Derby Jacket first appeared in the 1960s and became a cultural icon through the 1980s, loved by skaters, punks, and rockers along the U.S. West Coast. Despite its name, the term “Derby” doesn’t refer to equestrian wear, but rather to the original “Derby of San Francisco” brand that inspired this style.
Vintage Details, Modern Refinement
The ribbed collar is designed with a moderate height, while the label recreates the look of 1960s originals. The signature cut of the shoulder panels has been refined to create a cleaner, more streamlined silhouette.
It features dual hand pockets on both sides along with an interior pocket. The side pockets are double-layered, allowing for convenient organization and storage versatility.
The ribbed cuffs feature a unique gradation design that transitions from wide to narrow ribbing. Each rib section is crafted on dedicated knitting machines, showcasing TOWN CRAFT’s attention to detail.
The front zipper is made by IDEAL, a company known for supplying zippers to the U.S. military. The leather pull tab and metal snap buttons at the top and hem add vintage charm and durability.
Relaxed Fit for Modern Wear
Based on the proportions of a vintage XL size, the body length and sleeve length have been carefully adjusted to create a balanced, boxy silhouette. Its versatile fit makes it easy to pair with a variety of layers and styles—perfect for everyday wear with a nod to timeless American heritage.

Staff comment

● Staff (165cm / 52kg) Build: Slim Wearing: Size M I wore it in an oversized fit, which is on-trend. The body width is wide, and even though it has insulation, it doesn't feel bulky. The length is just enough to cover half of the hips. |
|
● Staff (171cm / 61kg) Build: Average Wearing: Size M It has a relaxed fit with plenty of room. The body width has a lot of space, so even thick inner layers fit comfortably. The sleeves gather around the wrists, creating a nice fit. The length covers about a third of my hips. |
|
● Staff (177cm / 67kg) Build: Average Wearing: Size L I wore it in the same size as the model. It fits just right with a nice amount of room. The sleeves gather slightly, and the length covers half of my hips. It's lightweight but warm thanks to the Thermolite, making it easy to throw on. |
|
● Staff (181cm / 80kg) Build: Stocky Wearing: Size L It fits perfectly. Despite my stocky build, the body width and shoulders are designed generously, so there's no tightness. The length covers my belt, and overall, the boxy silhouette is well-balanced. |
