IH-526-sbg - 21oz Super Black Fades to Grey Type III Jacket

[wdw]

I got my 42 a couple of days ago and it's grown on me.  At first, the upper arms looked massive because the sleeves are a good inch longer than I'd like and that bunches them up.  But when I compared it to my 42" 526J, the upper arms were identical in width, so definitely the length and bunching that made them look so weird.

After a long soak and now having worn it for a few hours, the arms have calmed down and don't look so strange.  They're still long and wrinkled, but bearable.

As for length, at 5'11", it lies at least 1" over my belt, so definitely not short on me.  I like it a lot.

Looks good (and you need the extra length of the bigger size)

@GoBruins:

Really love this thing!

Is that a Pawsox cap @GoBruins ?

[GoBruins]

@steelworker, yep that's a PawSox hat. Big Sox fan here!

Finally got my act together and ready to order one of these.

I'm worried the chest and arms are are going to be too big on an XL so I'm leaning towards Large.

G, any more thoughts on you wearing a large? Would that mean t-shirt only underneath?

[Giles]

Yep, or not done up….

Thanks

Awesome jacket!  can't wait to get mine..

[denimeric]

Got mine today! I'm glad I sized one up, the fit is great!  Happy man..

Once you get hooked on IH's quality it's hard to go back…

Post pics! I'd love to see some more.

Fit pic. I sized one up, I like a little room.

[Fadez]

Looking good! Thanks man.

Can't wait to see a good years worth of hard wear on this. Fades will be amazing. If I wasn't so impatient I would probably have this trucker as well.

[GoBruins]

@Jordonf9, I have about 6 months of everyday wear on mind. I'll post another update around the 1 year mark.

Nice pin on the left chest pocket! Good Art Hlwyd?

[GoBruins]

@Dion, Yep, good eye!

[denimeric]

@GoBruins,  Beautiful!  I like the grey fade

[GoBruins]

@denimeric, thanks! It's one hell of a jacket.. I've been beating the shit out of it for months now. Wore it everyday this summer at the Good Art foundry. Worth it. Still can't get all the silver flakes out but I really shouldn't complain. TBH I'm going to buy another one of these because 1) this is by far my favorite denim jacket and 2) I feel like I really messed up the cuffs (a bunch of water and silver changed the look.)
