A Look Back
The Story Behind My Patch & Denim Jackets: A Journey of Craftsmanship and Creativity
When I first set out to create my denim lonestar jackets, I had no idea where the journey would take me. I just knew that I wanted to create something truly unique — a blend of rugged denim with a striking, iconic design that would speak to both craftsmanship and creativity. Fast forward to today, and I've made over 160 of these jackets, each one a testament to the evolution of my skills, my passion for design, and the personal stories that have shaped my craft.
Building a Collection:
Since that first jacket, I’ve created over 160 Lonestar jackets, each one slightly different from the last. No two are ever exactly the same, which is something I take great pride in. Some feature different washes or dye techniques, while others may have custom patches, distressing, or even unique color combinations. I’ve also worked with a variety of denim weights, from lighter, more breathable fabrics for the warmer months, to heavier, thicker denim for the colder seasons.
Each star is built with the same level of attention to detail, ensuring that the craftsmanship is of the highest quality. From the stitching to the placement of the design, every element is thoughtfully considered. I always take the time to ensure that each piece not only looks great but also feels great to wear.
The People Behind the Jackets
What I find most rewarding is hearing the stories of the people who wear my jackets. Over the years, I've had the privilege of creating custom pieces for a wide range of individuals, from those who wanted a jacket to commemorate a special event to others who simply loved the look and feel of the lonestar design.
Looking Ahead: More Lonestar Jackets to Come
As I reflect on the journey of creating over 160 P&D jackets, I can’t help but feel a sense of excitement for what’s to come. Every jacket is an opportunity to learn, grow, and push my creativity to new heights. While the core of the design will always remain rooted in the iconic lonestar pattern, I’m excited to experiment with new materials, colors, and techniques to bring fresh ideas to life.
