IH-526L - 19oz Left-Hand Twill Selvedge Denim Type III - Indigo
-
Been waiting for this one for about 6 months or so now. Finally a 4xl in stock. Instand cop and its on the way to me. Super exited. 19oz leftie is a favorite of mine.
You’re gonna love it [emoji106][emoji106]
Absolutely.
To add, I was a little bummed when I understood that 25oz XHS can't be made into a jacket . Until I discovered this bad mofo. You're going to love it.

I think I will order it very soon

The OD is exceptionally nice, but for me the OG is the way to roll!!

So reading through this thread, is the general consensus to size up?

@Dust the OD one is awesome…but this one is the one I would personally recommend. What makes it fun is to size up and hot soak it. From there wearing it slightly damp like @adam313 (I think?) suggested for me. It makes for a perfect fit. Total mold of you upper half…while the OD loses it's shrink from the processing.
@Joberwocky yes, mine was pretty huge on me before a hot soak. Like wearing a cardboard box.

Thanks for the feedback [mention]Appfaff [/mention] and [mention]Oaktavia [/mention] Much appreciated!
So for sizing, I wear L in the IHSH-33T which fits perfect and I’m 6’2” 180. I was thinking of sizing up to the XL but based on the experiences shared here I’m reconsidering the XXL. I just measured my IHSH-33T and the P2P is actually now 23” and the shoulder is 18.5”, so the XXL is not seeming too far off at all. I guess the XL may be good but less conducive to layering.

I don't know about this! You can size up and go through the procedure that @Oaktavia describes, and there's a lot in favor of that, I suppose. But it's not like you have to.
I for one have not sized up, and I also haven't soaked. As the product description says, this jacket is unsanforized but one-washed, so most of the shrinkage is out already. So there is no strict need for a hot soak. And personally I quite enjoy the experience of wearing a cardboard box and seeing what happens to it in time…
I think a lot may depend on the measurements too. If they are spot on out the box, then you're good to go, and should be even after washing. If you're in between sizes, a hot wash will be a great idea.

I have a 3XL of this jacket. I initially bought a 4XL and it felt a bit big and I posted pics earlier in this thread. The general advice was to size down one so I exchanged. That worked great for a while but then I wanted to wash the jacket. I did a cold hand wash because the 3XL fit great out of the bag. Even in cold water the jacket shrunk in the chest so now I can't comfortably button the jacket. It works okay over a t shirt now but I wish I would have just kept the 4XL and did a hot wash on it because I know it would have shrunk down just fine.
If you're between sizes I would definitely size up and use hot water. If you don't ever plan on washing (gross) then size down.

This right here…

Think one of these is next on my list, they look like they fade beautifully

That looks spot on @Dust - looking forward to seeing it evolve

Spent about 2 hours measuring all my jackets and button ups and took the plunge. Love this jacket. Second day trying to break this guy in with raw knuckles and sore thumbs.
But I have to ask what’s the trick to buttoning second from the top? Second from the bottom takes about 3 attempts after resting the fingers but for the life of me that second from the top is a head scratcher.
