IH-101J - 1946 101J Riders Jacket
-
Actually this is the modern Lee (101) Rider Jacket, which is longer than the '46 101 J, the IH-101J is inspired of. The 'original' is shorter, you can check here on this repro:

You are right that was 1966 closer to IH 101J, below is the picture of original 1946 much shorter
-
Correct @den213 OG also has the correct lee riders buttons and OG unionmade Lee label tag with straight e's, no Trademark on chest label (plain Lee), stitched collar, etc
The IH 101j is a very nice take.
My HD Lee OG repro 1946 made in Japan (believe by Edwin under Lee licence), short slim fit wide waistband, full arms
Sorry OT
Perfect BLAST from PAST!!! This requires high rise jeans, love that over all, great picture David!!!
I remember HD Lee is now owned and moved to Poland, in US we only have Lee!!! I dont know if these still have any connection!! -
Thx man Kind of you. Not for the Hd Lee USA licence repros made in Japan like my jacket @rohitsingh afaik they were intended primarly for japanese market, don't know for how long these gonna be available any longer. Some are flying around online
@Winchy @louisbosco beautiful jacket really like this IH hopefully can touch it in real life
-
Yeah thats true Haha earlier 30s Cowboy have the selfedge and depending on manufacturers and looms most had some selfedge showing somewhere til the 60s. Don't know why the 1946 repro not lol, probably people after ww2 didnt care about visible selfedge details and denim was woven on narrow looms
-
Original lee denim had this characteristic vertical line fades formation whenever denim is stretched & strained, I guess Flathead created this, I do have HD Lee 101S, creating vertical lines, look at these pictures carefully you may notice vertical line fades
-
G, IH has so much love for type IIIs, it's very nice to see an interpretation of the Rider now. How about other options in the future? Maybe a ''modified'' Rider (longer in the body and with side pockets, similiar to the modern 101 Riders), made of 19 LHT (Lefty Rider ;D) or 21 oz so IH'll have another 21-oz-jacket besides the 526J?

@rohitsingh those fades look great. Just to expand on what you said, in my experience you can/will get heavy vertical line fading on jeans using many of the denims made by Cone Mills.

Possible, but we have a shit load of jackets either available or imminent, so won't be for a while….

Will the other Type II have a cinch as well?

@BloodnThunder I guess originally Cone Mills denim fades more evenly, but now days you see lot of variations… I do have few Cone Mills denim from LVC, Tellason and few other, mostly smooth & soft in texture, but I do have slim Lee101s, I guess its from Kaihara mill in Japan, initially it was smooth but within a month it started forming vertical lines mostly where it was stretched, but I know Flat Head denims create more prominent lines, look at the top most picture!!!
