IH-526PJ - 21oz Selvedge Denim Modified Type III Jacket - Indigo
-
Forgot that SE has this. I've debated between the 21oz over the 14oz and still can't decide.
I was thinking of the 14oz as well but as a short-armed broad dude, the measurements on the 21oz work a lot better for me. The sleeves are almost an inch longer on the 14oz.
I was thinking about it some more and I think I might end up picking the jacket up locally. I might make this the excuse to finally visit the Los Angeles store. It's about 30 minutes from my work, but it'll be neat to see. I've been eyeing one of those Good Art Hollywood rings, too…
Good point about the sleeve length. I’m probably a large in the 21oz and the sleeves definitely work better for me on that one.

I've been to the SF store once but couldn't stick around long or my wife would start to notice the price tags on the stuff that fills my closets
Luckily, my wife has conceded that our clothing spending is about equal. Mine is a lot more expensive, but she makes up for it in volume.
And in my opinion, SELA is the nicest Self Edge, though I haven't been to SEMX, so that's not a fully informed opinion.

(Un)fortunately for me, my wife is quite thrifty. I try to get her to spend money on clothes but she's happy with her budget finds. Makes me feel horribly guilty!
I was hoping to make a run down to the SE LA store today, but work got a little too busy. I also realized that there's a bunch of loopwheel shirts that I'd like to try so I need to measure some of my well-fitting t-shirts at home before making that trip. I'm hoping that the LA store has that 11oz IH t-shirt, but I'll settle for trying the 6.5oz IH Ts. I'll let you know how it goes once I do make it down there.

I ended up making it over to Self Edge LA but they didn't have the jacket. Looks like there was a stocking snafu. Turns out SE doesn't have any 526PJs left in a size large, in any store. Oh well. At least I got to check out the store and a bunch of IH stuff I've been tempted to buy in the past, like those 6.5 and 11oz t-shirts…those are beasts!
-
Bummer they didn't have it in stock. As a side note: I'm also eagerly awaiting the return of size L to IHUK and I hope there'll be enough around for both of us :). And yes, those Ts are simply magnificent.
Well I do hope you get your hands on one! I have a trip coming up in late November and I'm really hoping I'll have it slightly broken in by then
-
Will this come back in stock soon?

The way the denim behaves compared to my 21oz jeans is quite different. It’s an amazing jacket, glad it’s so well received. I’d like to see it’s original J counterpart make a comeback.

I completely adore my jacket. It has been worn almost daily since mid-August (it was unusable until then as it was so hot out) and I am starting to see the beginnings of fades on the elbows and some other parts.
Initially, I folded the cuffs back but I didn't like it and now I just have the sleeves at full length. They are about an inch and a half too long for me; my only gripe. This is an excellent jacket and I look forward to having it for decades.

Did the sizing change on this run? I seem to recall size large having a 22” P2P on the last chart

@neph93 and @Alex I've had a clear out and have the funds to buy a 526PJ. I have a super black 9526PJ labelled as a W44 (if I recall this is a size XXL - judging by the online measurements too).
It fits me perfectly, and if anything I may have a little extra toom in the chest…now my usual stupid question...an XXL in the 526PJ would be the way to go right?
when compared side by side the 526PJ and 9526PJ measurements are almost identical except the P2P which is about 0.7 inches smaller in the 526PJ. The measurements for the XXXL look way too big and this will stretch out a little with wear across the chest and waist.
cheers fellas.
