IH-533 - Fleece Lined 21oz Indigo Selvage Denim Modified Type III Jacket

[Dion]

Congrats! And what a wonderful fit!

[Max Power]

Damn, I never really liked that jacket/collar but it looks so great on you.

Great score, and such a good fit.  The IH jeans jackets are second to none, no matter what the style.

[JimBobTTD]

That is an excellent fit on you. I am super glad that it went to someone who will use it!

[Monitor]

Thanks everyone! And yep, JimBob, it's definitely in good hands. Probably the only jacket I'll be wearing once the cold weather returns.

any thoughts on redoing something like this? 

[Chris]

If I remember correctly, it did not sell well, so it's unlikely to be made again.

[Giles]

It sold like crap I am afraid.  Partly because it came up small, but personally, I'm once bitten, twice shy on this one….

I think this jacket looks great personally. The lining seems unnecessary though, especially if you’re wearing a uhf underneath

That’s one of the things I appreciate the most, practically speaking. It gives the jacket a greater range of wear time on an annual basis.

I could likely get the same amount of wear with a uhf. My point is the lining would be a pain to clean. It would also reduce the cost if it didn’t have the lining imo.

I stick it the washing machine at 40C [emoji1]

Ah the lining is what makes it for me. Giles, just chalk it all up to the small sizing!!! 

Either way though, thanks very much for the reply. Have to carry on thinking about how best to layer under a type iii if i’m wearing a dress shirt to work….

[neph93]

I’ll add that he lining also means I can use it with just a tee or with a heavy shirt and it’s good from 1C to 15C. Warmer than than I use standard type III’s just with a tee.

The point being the cord collar on an indigo type III is a small detail for me. The whole idea of the piece is that it is has a fleece lining in the body and lined arms so it isn’t just another light jacket.

We are doing a Storm Rider…...

Sadly, the Storm Rider isn’t my cuppa tea. Don’t know if it’s the shape of the chest pockets or the length but I prefer IH’s modified type III’s

What a lovely lovely jacket!

It really is. I find the slightly funky measurements make it easier to pair with shirts than other type III’s. Not too much in the way of shirttails showing.

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 ???
