IH-526Lod - 19oz Left-Hand Twill Selvedge Denim Type III - Indigo Overdyed Black
-
I suppose the 526LOD fades quicker than other cuts, because it’s so stiff: even after quite a few days of wear, it still leaves me rushes at crease of my arms, when I wear just it over a t-shirt

@AdamJ stunning

Well...my 526LOD arrived this morning and it exceeds all expectations! I wanted to add an OD Type III to my wardrobe and was chatting with @Graham at the mothership about the 14oz OD...he told me that if I really wanted the best OD to go for the 19LOD. I will admit after seeing pictures of the non-OD version of this jacket online, I was hesitant to jump into something that looked so stiff and heavy. However, the OD process significantly softens the denim, so I decided to go for it. I ordered the Size L and it fits perfectly (5'10" 168 pounds)...I am blown away by the texture and inky finish on this jacket...I am really thrilled with it!!!

@Mizmazzle said in IH-526Lod - 19oz Left-Hand Twill Selvedge Denim Type III - Overdyed Indigo:
I’d like one one day…but Jesus, how many type 3s can a person have!? (Responses will vary greatly!!)
I think the answer is more standard than you might think being the correct number is n+1, where n is the number of type 3s already owned.
-
@pechelman damn it if you aren’t right! It’s just simple math for god’s sake!!!
-
@Mizmazzle some people also suggest there's a minimum condition for this to be true where n must always be greater than or equal to 3.
-
@pechelman oh shit!! Variables?? Sounds like science to me!!!
-
@Mizmazzle as for IH I have these, then I have a pair of Momotaro type1 and 2, lee101 rider and Levis vintage
-
@Mizmazzle ahaha thanks my friend, the only problem is explaining this law to my partner

@Mizmazzle Thanks, brother! I started with a 14oz Type III from IH, then traded that for a 16 Slub. I added a 16 Slub OD but didn't connect with it, so I sold it and then bought this one after comparing it to a 14OD. This 19 LH OD is pretty much EXACTLY what I was looking for and it is a great complement to the non-OD 16 Slub...this jacket just checks all the boxes for me...robust with a heavy grain but still very easy to wear and break in!
