Today’s jacket- 1970s Maverick by Blue Bell 24MJZ

Today I’d like to pull something out of my wardrobe and share it with you all

a 1970s Maverick by Blue Bell, model 24MJZ.

One of those jackets that doesn’t need much introduction to be honest haha

Clean lines, great pocket shape, and that unmistakable Blue Bell DNA that sets it apart from Wrangler, even though they were made under the same parent company.

The denim has aged in a very honest way nothing forced, nothing artificial.

Just decades of natural wear that gives it character without overwhelming the silhouette.

A very dependable jacket, and one I always enjoy bringing back into rotation.

Billy Jack's choice!



Maverick, I mean. Though his was the shoulder gusset and elastic waist cinch model, whereas yours is basically the (canon) Cliff Booth jacket. Though the one the wardrobe director secured has the W Wrangler stitching rather than the M Maverick stitching. I say canon because the backstory is that Cliff got his jacket as a leftover wardrobe item from this film.

Beautiful piece of denim! the zipper makes it stand out in the sea of endless look-alikes that is denim jackets, and a jacket I personally would love to own someday
