During the war, Bruce Mackinnon, a soldier in San Jose, noticed issues with simplified denim designs—pockets couldn’t hold items securely, and pants would sag. To fix this, he reintroduced the jacket’s pocket flaps and the jeans’ Paris buckle for reinforcement. His modified version became known for its unique color variations and rusted Paris buckles, adding a rugged, vintage touch.
