Jean jacket[edit]

(

)

A man in Hungary wearing a jean jacket in 1975

... that the jean jacket (pictured) was invented by Levi Strauss in about 1880?

ALT1 ~~... it has been claimed Kanye West (pictured) owns an "alarming number" of jean jackets?~~

Nice article, on good sources, no copyvio obvious. The image is licensed, but almost shows black on black in stamp size, sorry. How about the woman pictured last in the article, where the blue jacket stands out? "alarming number" is a strange comment, imho, so I'd go for the original. - Please move the image of West to the right in the article, to make him look "in". Waiting for qpq also. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:51, 2 January 2018 (UTC)

Gerda Arendt - thanks much. I've just done a QPQ and I've moved the Kanye image in the article. Do you mind if we use this photo instead? It's the most beautiful photo I've ever seen. Chetsford (talk) 00:26, 3 January 2018 (UTC)

Thank you! Offline source accepted AGF. The image is licensed and shows better. Just don't be disappointed if it won't be shown, - only one in eight nominations comes with picture. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:24, 3 January 2018 (UTC)
