We’ve been busy this week, completing our pack of gift guides and releasing an in-depth review of Tellason’s lined Jean Jacket.

But before I get to all that, I wanted to remind you of our Heimat campaign:

A few weeks ago, we published an article that explores Heimat’s history and looks at five items that define the young brand.

But the real treat of the partnership is that we’re giving away a €250 gift voucher for Heimat’s webshop! The only thing you have to do is give us your email.

NOTE: As an existing subscriber to our newsletter, you’re not excluded from joining the giveaway, but you’re not automatically entered into the giveaway either. If you want a chance to win that voucher, you have to sign up using the link above! Don’t miss this chance!

Denim jackets are great, but let’s face it—they’re not exactly built for the cold. That’s where Tellason’s Lined Jean Jacket comes in.

It takes the classic Type III style we all know and love and adds a quilted lining in the sleeves and a wool blanket liner in the body. The result? A denim jacket you can actually rely on when the temperatures drop.

Here’s how the 16.5 oz. lined Tellason Jean Jacket fades

I’ve always been a fan of a good denim jacket, and this one hits all the right notes. It’s got the classic boxy-but-not-too-boxy fit, practical pockets (including two sneaky hand-warmer ones), and a rugged, heavyweight 16.5 oz. selvedge denim. Plus, the details—from the asymmetrical stitching to the San Francisco craftsmanship—make it unmistakably Tellason.

I just published a full review of this jacket. I go deep into the story behind it, the fit, and how Pete and Tony have managed to make something that’s not just a replica but a true original.

Denim heads like us are both difficult and super simple to shop for around the holidays. We’re a picky bunch, but there are some brands and pieces that are always welcome.

We’ve scoured the world of well-made goods to present you with this pair of guides. If you’re stuck for gift ideas (either for yourself or for that denim lover in your life), these guides are guaranteed to get the creative juices flowing.

We’ve broken them up into three:

If you’re certain about what size to get, grab a piece from our guide for the clothes-obsessed.

If you’re less than certain about their sizes or what they would like to add to their wardrobe, try our no-guessing gift guide. 

If you’re looking for the perfect pair of jeans to give as a gift, you really can’t go wrong with any of the pairs on our Selvedge Masterlist. If you want something more basic, check out our guides to high-quality T-shirts.

Happy holidays, and happy shopping!
