The Americana-inspired jean jacket is simply one of those classic staples that will always hold timeless appeal. Just like a khaki trench or a pair of penny loafers, it’s an essential style item that seems to find a secure spot in our wardrobes year after year (even if it spends a little time in-between hanging in the back of your closet).
