IH-526J-22OD - 22oz Selvedge Denim Type III Jacket - Indigo Overdyed Black

You would have expected to see some indigo colours peeking through here? Or is that not to be expected on this fabric? I also think, or at least it seems to be that way that the indigo is hard to capture on the artificial eye of a camera on an OD garment?

How would you guys say the comfort with this 22oz is, versus lighter weight fabrics?

@Daniel-0 22 is harsh at first and will get soft with wear, not as soft as a 21oz jacket but softer then the 19oz lefty in my experience. I once had a 22 and sold it cause i totally dig my 19oz lefty! But that 22 jacket was cool on it’s own!

@Heavy_blue

Gotcha, my brother told me his 19oz lefty was brutal, currently own the OD western and it’s also pretty stiff, I guess I just gotta wear it in.

22 gets very soft, while remaining heavy of course. It drapes very nicely once broken in, which doesn't take too long. Seems to be one of those OD denims that fade to grey rather than revealing indigo - I've never got around to asking on here why some do the former while others (18oz vintage denim of the 293 CPO for example) do the latter.

Part of the OD club, I snagged the last piece! Can't wait for it to arrive!

@bob_z you used the money well drom those wesco’s you’ve sold njoy man!

[bob_z]

Well once the deciscion was made in my head I found it quite an accomplishment for me to postpone the purchase overnight considering that it was the last piece, but I had sent a question asked to IH regarding measurement of this specific piece and as the answer rolled in my e-mail box the last bit of restraint to buy this jacket suddenly disappeared and the point of nu return was long gone lol. I really lived by what is put underneath each of my messages lol....

Well here it is, finally my journey with this jacket begins!!:

BOOM.....

Any news on a restock? Hoping to pick up one of these at some point

[AdamJ]

@JunkPants Not likely I'm afraid. The fabric is extinct

[JunkPants]

@AdamJ Thank you for the reply Adam. If not what I was hoping to hear!
Loved the combination of heavy denim, overdyeing and short/classic body length.

@JunkPants We are making a 526J, so non modified in our 21oz selvedge denim. Not outside the realms of possibility that it gets the OD treatment one day

@AdamJ That could be a great option. Thank you for the glimmer of hope!
