Don’t you just love a jean jacket? First inspired by Levi Strauss in 1880, the jean jacket lives on, in its many forms.
This class presents an opportunity for you to personalizer / customize your own jean jacket. Do you have one you would like to embellish, or maybe you would have fun thrifting one?
