IH-526L - 19oz Left-Hand Twill Selvedge Denim Type III - Indigo

Great fit @Penny_pants . You’re right about the combs. I have this denim in the 666 cut and soft as it is now, it just gets better with wear and washing.

I cant wait for it to get cooler so I can finally wear this jacket again

Hello! Anybody know when there might be a restock of the IH-526L? I NEEEEEEED a size medium so very badly, haha.

[matwllms]

ORRRRRR Actuall the PERFECT fit for me would be the size small but with 26.5" sleeves, but that might be wishful thinking…

@matwllms If your in the US you could shoot Self Edge am email and see if any other the sleeves came out a bit long. Looks like they’ve got 2 smalls.

Failing that, the next  production run is due to complete middle/end of Dec:

Thanks! I did exactly that! Alas, the sleeves and length were just too short… Waiting on a restock now, i suppose!

Thanks, Giles! I will be watching like a hawk!!

I just did my first ever hot wash last night and can confirm there was a little extra shrink in the sleeve and length that didn't come out from my initial hot soak.

Hi @Giles! Is it still looking like these will restock this month? Thanks!!

[Giles]

No, I am afraid not.  We ran out of the denim and it is taking an age to rerun…

It's looking like March/April for all the 19oz reruns.

Sorry...

@Stuart.T:

And one more. I know some frown on matching double denim, but I love it. Blame the rock n roll.

Perfect

I'm on the lookout for a denim jacket and I have no idea about the different models (Type I or Type III or whatever), but from looking at the photos, I could see that this jacket is a bit longer and does not sit up above the waist and this is something that I'm considering to buy.

I measured one of my leather jackets (as recommended by Iron Heart to measure one of my existing jackets) and here are the dimensions and a comparison against the Iron Heart size small and medium (I'm 5.11 and weigh 64 kgs, skinny).

I'm not bothered about the sleeves, but the rest of the measurements should fit me and now I'm confused between small and medium!

| Size (inches) | My Measurements | Size Small | Size Medium |
| Shoulder | 19 | 17.4 | 18.3 |
| Length | 24 | 25.3 | 25.9 |
| Chest (P2P) | 20 | 20.4 | 21.0 |
| Waist | 18 | 18.4 | 19.1 |
| Opening | 18 | 19.1 | 20.0 |

My questions now:

1. So with this dimensions, what size should I go for? If I take small, would it be a problem when wearing some thick inner layer?

2. Will this jacket shrink after wash or soak?

3. Will this jacket keep me warm during winter months? I will wear it with a sweater underneath. Would this keep me warm from the winter months where the temperature goes down between 3 and 12 degrees?

4. Can alterations be done say after I wear them for some days and would like to do some minor alterations. Can this be done?
