IH-526J-142OD - 14oz Selvedge Denim Modified Type III - Overdyed Indigo
-
Ordered. Thanks for all the help.
-
Jacket arrived today (insanely fast shipping!!!), and I'm chuffed!! The texture is soft and buttery, yet it has some underlying heft to it; the Iron Heart alchemy is strong with this one. I have to agree with one of the previous posters in that I'm also surprised this model isn't bigger than it is because it's absolutely top notch. I'm probably going to get a Lefty when they're restocked, but until then, this one is definitely going to get a lot of mileage.

@Nostradamion congrats man!! I’m looking to grab the black black version myself. I love the 14oz denim for shirts. I’m betting it’s pretty rad for a type 3 too!!
In the easy chair with my boots on, melted whiskey in my hand. Could'na been asleep for more than three hours...time to go to work again...

@Mizmazzle Thanks much!! Yeah, the jacket is killer; the fit is spot on, and it seems to occupy that space where it's not too heavy, but it's also not too light. Almost exists in a "Goldilocks" zone. One thing to note: I ended up getting some black dye on my hands and arms, so because of this, I would initially recommend wearing dark shirts with this jacket for a bit until it settles in.

@Nick First and Second pics here look like shorter SBG type iii.
Correct. Have removed. A consequence of over excitement and schoolboy error (as the backdrop was the slap-in-the-face obvious clue that the pics were from a different shoot.
Well, that and the lengths and other details.

Picked this up in a XL. Love it. I couldn’t make the indigo work for me, XL too big, L too tight in the waist. Sleeves an inch long. Are they likely to ride up with wear and creases?
-
@Richard I have or had the same issue with the sleeve. More like 2 inches. I am sure you will lose this inch when the ellbowcombs have settled.
-
New set of pictures. Still wearing it super frequently. Combs and „stacks“ seem to settle now which also shorten the sleeves quite signifiantly (which is a good thing)
-
Moving forward. Not as fast as the guys on the 19oz version, but I still love it.

@beef_bonanza looking great man. I’m loving these 14oz type 3s. I’ve been wearing my black/black version a lot lately. Not much evo yet on mine, but the comfort is through the roof and the fabric is starting mold nicely.
-
@beef_bonanza Looks awesome man, definitely turning nice and blue, which is ideal for OD in my opinion.
-
@beef_bonanza looking great!

Thank you guys. @Mizmazzle I can confirm, the nice drapping and how ridiculously soft it is now. It‘s just THE perfect weight for a denim jacket. Funnily enough I got enough comments from non-Iron Heart people how heavy this jacket was

@beef_bonanza that’s hilarious. When I first got mine I’d been so used to wearing exclusively the heaviest Iron Heart denims. I wondered to myself if I’d lost my hardcore edge. Haha.

Wore my jacket today while running errands today, and had someone stop me at Costco and ask about it. Dude was in total wonderment as to how soft the jacket is, yet he too commented about how heavy it is. I guess when you're used to store brand denim jackets, or even some newer Levis, Iron Heart at 14oz's is still a heavyweight for the uninitiated.
Sidenote, @beef_bonanza your jacket looks killer; I can't believe how blue it is, and the fades are incredible!! Mine is still holding onto it's original solid black color, so I've definitely got much work yet to do with it. Every time I wear it however, I still marvel at just how soft the fabric is; it's literally from a galaxy far, far away!!
