IH-526J - 21oz Selvedge Denim Type III - Indigo

[indigostiff]

I wore my 526J last night again, and just love that it lacks the handwarmer pockets - for fit and sleekness. I also love the weight of the jacket, as well as how the shoulder cut matched just perfectly with the sleeve length. To get something that fits so perfectly is a rarity, and I'm glad I've found it.

@JunkPants I agree 100%...what I really notice is how much more streamlined and less bulky the unmodified version is. You don't realize how much volume and weight is created by the pocket bags until you handle this version...love it so far!

[JunkPants]

@SaddleSC Very true! I wish IH made more classic/unmodified type IIIs, but it seems like most people prefer the modified versions. And they are excellent, best in class, no doubt.

(Not to mention I already have so many denim jackets that it's getting a bit ridiculous really, so I'm not sure how many more I have room or need for . FedEx actually dropped off a denim jacket from a different brand just a few hours ago......)

There are some cool IH type I and type II jackets coming as well, no handwarmer pockets on those.

[SaddleSC]

@JunkPants Agreed...I am in the same boat...I had a Brave Star Gauntlet 22oz Ironside Type III dropped off today also...it is a gift for a family member but definitely didn't stop me from "inspecting" it and perhaps trying it on:)

@SaddleSC Nice, always soothing to know there are others out there in a similar predicament

[michael.b]

@SaddleSC You take the same size as me in the jacket. What size UHF shirt do you wear?

[SaddleSC]

@michael-b I wear Size Large in Western UHF and enjoy both Size M and Size L in the Work Shirts depending on the cut and measurements

[michael.b]

@SaddleSC Thanks buddy

[indigostiff]

I appreciate the clean, durable internals of this jacket, too

Start ‘em out young

Such a great cut for us shorter folks. This piece falls just below my true waist and meets my pants right where I like, I personally don't love a lot of the longer, more modern denim jackets. Given the shorter cut it's great for riding as it doesn't bunch up!

@mvttryvn looks good dude! And sick boots

[mvttryvn]

@Heavy_blue thanks! Just posted the boots in the Show Us Your Boots forum haha. Love 'em, and got an absolute steal price-wise.

Did not plan to buy any more denim but got this for a price that was too good not to say yes... Was offered as a pj but I don't mind that it's not.

XXXL so sleeves a little bulky but I let it settle first

@FlavourFade looks awesome!

[Luijim78]

@FlavourFade even the pj has bulky sleeves compared to the other jackets I own, congratulations my friend it looks very good on you

[FlavourFade]

Thanks guys @DeeDee85 @Luijim78 ! Love it already. So soft compared to my lefty.

Looking good already with the creases @Luijim78

I love the classic short cut length of this jacket. Especially for a type III, I really think that keeping it short and classic is the best. Ever thought of making a black version of it? I would definitely buy that right away !
