Jackets & Outerwear

$174as of Sep 27, 2026. Check the current price at Naked & Famous

The verdict

A textured, limited cropped jacket on sale; worth the price if sashiko patterning appeals to you.

Fit

Cropped silhouette with sashiko quilting adds slight structure. Runs similarly snug to standard cropped fits; size up for layering room.

Quality

Sashiko detailing at this price tier is hand-sewn foundation work, typical of Naked & Famous' attention to small detail. Should age well and resist pilling on quilted areas.

Price check

Sale price of $174 makes this a solid mid-tier purchase for a denim maker's decorated piece. Full retail would stretch into premium territory.

Best for

Wearers drawn to Japanese textile craft; those who want visible pattern and structure in a lightweight jacket.

Care

Sashiko seams can catch in vigorous washing. Wash gentle-cycle inside-out; air-dry to preserve stitch definition.

What owners report about Naked & Famous jackets & outerwear

Coverage of this jacket line comes mainly from denim-enthusiast editorial and owner fade reports rather than mass retail reviews. A year-long owner wear report on the brand's stretch denim jacket found it molded to the wearer's frame and developed strong creasing and fading through heavy touring use. Editors place the brand's jackets in the mid tier of denim jackets and note the range spans light 9 oz. fabrics up to heavy 20 oz. novelty denim, with heritage styles cut to a vintage fit that is boxier and shorter than contemporary offerings.

Strengths: Reviewers report a wide fabric range and denim that creases, molds, and fades distinctively with sustained wear.
Watch out for: Heritage-style jackets run boxy and short by modern standards, and fabric weights vary so much across the line that two jackets can wear like completely different garments.
Sizing: Expect vintage proportions on the heritage jackets — boxier and shorter than contemporary trucker cuts — so compare garment measurements rather than assuming your usual jacket fit.
