The Piece

The white windbreaker jacket with a boxy fit by DeLong is likely a vintage piece reflecting the brand's commitment to functional and stylish outerwear. This jacket, with its sleek design and heavy comfortable material, is designed to provide both style and practicality, suitable for various weather conditions.

The Style

Windbreakers became widely popular in the 1960s and have remained a staple in casual outerwear. Originally designed to protect against wind chill while maintaining a lightweight and breathable profile, windbreakers were embraced for their versatility. The boxy fit and sleek design reflect a blend of 1980s and 1990s fashion trends, where oversized, structured outerwear was in vogue.

The Features

• Material: Heavy and comfortable, likely nylon or a similar synthetic blend, ensuring durability and protection.
• Design: Sleek white colorway with a boxy fit, combining both vintage and modern aesthetics.
• Functionality: Offers wind resistance and comfort, making it ideal for casual wear or outdoor activities.

What Makes it Vintage?

• Made in USA

Policy and trade shifts in the 80s and 90s led to the US manufacturing in developing countries, making US-made clothes almost nonexistent afterward. American-made clothes are more durable and comfortable as they are made with higher-quality materials and craftsmanship, not to mention that their style is timeless!

• Single Tag

The double tag was common by the end of the 90s, so clothes with only one tag indicate a pre-2000s manufacturing.

• Embroidered Tag

Embroidered tags have become a trademark of vintage pieces since companies began to print tags in order to cut costs in the 80s and 90s.

Each of our vintage pieces comes with a handwritten, customized, and strung card-stock tag of the piece's background and vintage appeal.
