IH-526L - 19oz Unsanforised Left Hand Twill Trucker. The Lefty Trucker

[irishexpat]

Agreed.

For me, the perfect look is denim and tan. So I got a pointer chore coat to go with my IHs.

If I wore khakis/tan pants more often, I would definitely buy a type III in denim.

Maybe you should consider the superblack or OD type 3 instead. I have both the OD and the black duck (now extinct) type 3 and they go perfectly with blue denim.

[JamesMarg]

I have the black duck which i love!
But i just think a jacket like this lefty trucker is super timeless… And that creates huge appeal for me!
I might have to branch out to different material for pants to solve this issue.

[RocknRoll]

Ha ha….cool. The black duck is an underrated beauty.

Yeah the lefty is nice, but I'm leaving it for others. I'm with you on blue-on-blue thing!

Personally, I have no issue with denim on denim (I guess there would be a problem if I did), but I do prefer different  stages of wear…

[superfuzz]

I'm with G on this one. Although some dudes like Davito can pull off any denim on denim combo. I think that a demin type III is a staple that every guy should have.

This jacket is on my wish list , been waiting for one with in and outside pockets. Hope it is not a one off.and becomes
a staple item .

Giles, are these available from IH Japan ?

I'm in the 47% category of those who don't double denim up ( jeans bottom , denim shirt/jacket top )
. Made that percentage number up ha ha

[Giles]

Not available in Japan…

[jock1624]

Thanks Giles . Will there be more made after your cleaned out , next year or so…...?

Cheers

[Giles]

If I get cleaned out quick enough, I'll rerun…..

[jock1624]

Aha …..bit of incentive sales psychology there .....well played .....hope you.get cleaned out.

[Giles]

A bit of truth…..

I'm torn between a size small in this and a medium in the regular 526J! I had the 526J in size small, but the length and sleeves were a little too short. I'm sure the small in this one would fix that issue, but I don't think I'll like the vertical fading of the lefty denim over time (and I really like the regular 21 oz). Am I overreacting? Do you guys think the denim appearance and qualities are pretty similar overall?

[Giles]

@margzz:

Am I overreacting?

Only you can answer that

@margzz:

Only time will tell

[RocknRoll]

Mr Padmore, need I remind you that you are under oath.

Now, please answer the question, is the plaintiff overreacting?

[Giles]

Sorry m'lud.

Sweet write up!  I saw this earlier.

[superfuzz]

I love this jacket. This is pretty much what I've worn every day since I got it (with a parka over it since it's been so damn cold lately).
