So earlier of this month HeadGoonie released an article on their website showing that they are in fact updating the denim jacket they previously came out with in 2015. Early pictures and text from the article shows that they are tying very hard to match the colors better than last time. The writer (Not sure if it's Miki Ooyagi) states that back then they settled for the best looking ones because the colors used for the movie apparently aren't available from today's denim. No mention of how close they are to replicating the colors, but I have faith in them that it will at least look a little better.
The writer mentions that he originally wasn't going to make a new jacket but he has been constantly been contacted from people all over the world with input and help so he decided to start the project over some afternoon tea. Also in the article it is said that a new run of the vests will also start. No updates though since it was basically perfect.
I had contacted Miki Ooyagi and he told me that a finished prototype will be shown at the end of the month and we should expect a full release some time in October of this year. And remember, these are very limited runs. If you wish to get your hands on one do it quick before your size runs out. The first jacket was $580 USD so I expect this one to be the same or very close to that price.
These fabric samples are likely before any stone washing has been done.
