IH-533 - Fleece Lined 21oz Indigo Selvage Denim Modified Type III Jacket
-
To me, that's every bit as good as the upcoming Storm Rider, yet it got very little love. Equally, the 101J wasn't a great hit in comparison to the 526s, yet lots of people can't wait for the Storm Rider. Colour me confused ???

I think there was a lot of excitement for this but studying the thread and the extinct section, there was a lot of consternation regarding measurements (it is atypical, being overly long in the body but slim horizontally) and it had competition for peoples money. Being lucky enough to own one, despite it not having the best fit for me, it serves as an example of how the right measurements aren't decisive for a kickass jacket. I've lost weight and could probably get into an XL now. I doubt I'll ever see one though, and wearing this over layers is really not a chore
EDIT: with regards to the 526 vs. 101j, I love the design of the 101j. Still haven't bought one because I've far too many examples of this kind of jacket. Generally it just seems the majority of people love the type III more, in the same way westerns are generally preferred to to work shirts. (Recent) history suggests that majority opinion isn't necessarily to be trusted ::)

any plans to restock/remake this or to produce something similar(fleece lined denim jacket)?
It was originally released a long time ago, and had a difficult «birth». The measurements differed from the type III’s of the time and it fit differently as well. It was also a relatively expensive piece and not many were made. So a restock is impossible (they are long gone), a remake is unlikely (given the circumstances around the original release), however a lined denim jacket (the stormrider) was released recently and IHUK has hinted that a lined type III is in the works.

I’d be just as happy with an unlined version of this jacket. I’m probably in the minority though [emoji851] H could just slap a cord collar on the 526PJ and call it a day

Good evening everyone. I recently bought this jacket but it is a little big for me. As far as you know, could I send it to IH service in the hope that they will make it to my size?
The only alterations we do is to make jeans shorter, sorry

@bilos2511 I'm sorry, but I don't think so.

This jacket will not shrink. Definitely not. Do not try the mega warm washing or any dryer, please. You will only fucked up the inner stuffing.
@bilos2511 Put a beefy & heavy hoodie under this beast and you will be good
