Designer labels have been creating denim jackets for many years. For men, denim jackets in the old-fashioned blue colour as well as black and grey are very popular.

There are also side and front pockets with button cuffs. Overall the jacket has a relaxed fit.
Denim jackets for women have a more feminine fit and are narrower towards the bottom. Jackets for women sometimes come with shiny gold buttons and some of them have fringes on the top and on the collars. Some jackets even have spandex in them for an extra slim fit.
