i can vouch that the liner illustration is still the same with the 2018 one which is okay.Ah perfect!
I also noticed they teased the liner on their Instagram today! It’s looking much better than the previous lining!

The main thing I’ve read is that they’ve changed the way the denim is reproduced. Before they had a grey material they weathered by air brushing blue paint onto the fabric. It seems that now they are reproducing the grey section via an acid/stone wash process instead, hence the darker blue fabric in the photos.Are there any notable changes to the design?
Nice! I'll be selling my original 2018 jacket and get this new one. I have a size small but I should have gotten a medium. I'll fix that this time around.The main thing I’ve read is that they’ve changed the way the denim is reproduced.

Aside from that, the button clasps have been made more accurate and I think they worked with another superfan/collector who had a few original Guess jackets they used as reference.
yes, that's my only gripe on the 2018...i brought the wrong size and when the sleeves is folded it doesn't align with my wrist.Nice! I'll be selling my original 2018 jacket and get this new one. I have a size small but I should have gotten a medium. I'll fix that this time around.
I believe they said the evening/night of 9/28 (in Japan) on Twitter.Do we know when preorders start?
So this is just a product test then? still too much alike The Hundreds jacket with that grey...i hope they refined it again.View attachment 1498345
HG sent me this photo of the new jacket. I still think the grey denim is too dark but it should look ok after one or two washes seeing as it hasn’t been airbrushed on. They seem to have nailed the buttons and the yoke
It looks like it was just the first product test from the factory line but the photo was in bad lighting? Here’s the latest screen grab from a video, the grey is looking much better!So this is just a product test then? still too much alike The Hundreds jacket with that grey...i hope they refined it again.
Question to all: do you think that Headgoonie make the collar too large, i always compared Marty's one to be a bit shortened so it can stand up nicely.
Hey, I'll give benefit of the doubt and assume it to be just a progress teaser... hopefullySo this is just a product test then? still too much alike The Hundreds jacket with that grey...i hope they refined it again.

Yes the price is definitely inflated in comparison to the 3rd & 4th iterations. But from what I saw on the IGTV stream today, this version is a massive improvement upon the previous ones. The denim colour looks more accurate (this time it is Black Ox Denim that has been stonewashed) and the buttons & pockets appear to be more accurate. Plus the fit looks a lot nicer and more like the Guess jackets than a baggy denim shirt. I’ve included a screenshot of the new jacket.It's up and boy how the price is inflated....

Which sucks because now all of their sizes are larger than the screen used, which I believe is 59cm long in the body, and theirs is 60.Headgoonie adjusted the measurements for every size to be a little bit bigger than the 2018 jacket. So for everyone ordering this, keep that in mind. They made each size several centimeters bigger in some places. Most notably the length. For example, the size small is now 4 centimeters longer than in 2018.
It's worth pointing out that the Yen has fallen against the dollar in that time as well.It's up and boy how the price is inflated....
