For sale is an original vintage Sears Roebucks selvedge denim jacket, dating to the mid–late 1960s. This is a true selvedge, shuttle-loom denim jacket from the golden era of American workwear.


The denim features a clean selvedge edge with green line and purple tracer, confirming narrow shuttle-loom construction. Department-store selvedge jackets from this period are considerably rarer than Levi’s, especially in clean, wearable sizes.


Details include original Roebucks branded snap buttons, classic trucker-style construction, contrast golden stitching, and the early “Genuine Roebucks” white woven label with a separate 40R size tab. All details are correct for mid-1960s production.
