Double Indigo RB.
Are you still wearing this? Did you keep it raw or soaked it? And hows sizing compared to IH? Found a double indigo one I am eyeing right now
Also maybe you could say something about how this is for summer compared to your slubby IH jacket?

Good morning
I wore it for exactly 50 days last spring/summer. I soaked it in warm water first thing as they shrink considerably, even just in cold water. The double indigo is my personal favorite of the denim varieties.
It is the most lightweight jacket I own and feels that way compared to anything I have that is IH. I have a high determination to wear long sleeved denim in the warmer months. I found this to be the easiest to wear of all that I have tried. They are also cut super super short and a little boxy. This cut helps with airflow and less fabric in general makes it easier. I have not tried to wear my slubby too much in the heat. If I were to choose either one to wear in the summer it weird be the RB. I even took it with me to the beach in Ocracoke, NC last summer.

@Oaktavia thanks a lot for your answer, extremely helpful! If I remember right you are xxl-xxxl in most IH right? What size did you go for with the rb? And hows the fade progress going on it?

I was before beer weight loss. Now I am XL XXL.

My RB is size 42. I can take photos today.

@Oaktavia you're the best!!
-
@FlavourFade happy to help bro. Photos posted below.
-
@Oaktavia looking great!! Now have to look into measurements and then decide if this or the kersey work jacket will be my summer jacket project....
-
@FlavourFade 14oz kersey is pretty thick and heavy.
-
@Oaktavia yeah I was talking about the 12oz work jacket, seems more breathable. But the RB is my favourite right now.
-
@Oaktavia how tall are you Stevie? I would like to try one but the cuts are usually really short on me @ 6’1ish
-
@Anesthetist I am 6' 2" and some change. The cuts are super short like as short as possible.
-
@Oaktavia nice! Just might work
-
@Anesthetist worth a try at least, they are unique jackets and look great.

getting a pair of N-1Z Deck Pants - Indigo Jungle Cloth tomorrow. the indigo jungle cloth looks great and I hope the sizing works.
found those pants in the warehouse, no idea if it’s a sample or maybe extinct piece
definitely like what they do at Mr Freedom -
@Tyler-Durden may I ask how tall you are and what fabric is that?
-
I’m 5’10. This is the SC/66. This was hot soaked so there was a bit of shrink to this.
I have the black version as well, unsoaked and it is considerably larger.

@Tyler-Durden dude fantastic fit man, looking awesome.
