IH-526L - 19oz Left-Hand Twill Selvedge Denim Type III - Indigo

[cityofdelusion]

@Oaktavia Thank you. I think I must have washed it more than five times in the washing machine and perhaps once or twice manually. I believe the marbling is due to sitting often with the jacket on as I do a lot of reading and writing.

Edit: I just noticed that mine was the first version of the unsanforised version of the IH-526L Mods, please feel free to move my post if necessary.

Cool, cool thanks for sharing. Love that evo dude.

@cityofdelusion current one is also unsanforized so I think you’re good (there’s only one thread, if you go back it covers the V1 and V2 - believe this is essentially the V2 but they just took it out of the title/reference)

[cityofdelusion]

@Oaktavia Thanks for the interest!

@LewisStonehouse Ah, very well then

@cityofdelusion @spitfiredealer great work, such an amazing fader if you put in the work!

[LewisStonehouse]

@spitfiredealer youre a savage dude, that jacket looks amazing!

"Gave mine another wash"

In what? A cement mixer?

@spitfiredealer01.  That jacket is a testimonial to how hardcore that denim is man. Keep going !

[spitfiredealer]

yep this denim certainly gives amazing fades. It's a beast, still feels like armour after all this time.

Holy smokes dude. That jacket is a work of art. How long have you been creating this monster peice? Machine washed? Lots of washes? Killer shit…

[spitfiredealer]

Thanks man. I think it’s about 6 or 7 years old. Only had 4 washes all of them in the machine. I tend to wear it under another coat so doesn’t get crazy dirty at work.

[Oaktavia]

Awesome dude thanks for sharing…seems like north of 5 years is the absolute sweet spot.

[spitfiredealer]

you just gotta live in it or be very active in it when you do wear it. I kept mine for casual wear for ages, but it was hardly changing so I thought fuck it and started wearing it for work.

Now, that is looking good…..

[LewisStonehouse]

This is the best jacket I’ve ever had. I think the sizing has just worked out really well for me after a hot soak and a damp wear. It’s already a second skin, and I’m ending up even wearing it round the house. If in doubt, buy one!

[Oaktavia]

Thank you @Giles it's starting to shape up.

This is the way…

Now I have on too  , was extremely lucky to get a used one in excellent condition. First fadings just started.

[Oaktavia]

Nice!

I was surprised how "soft“ it already is.
There’s not much difference to my 22oz which I wore the whole winter till now.
Such a great denim
I am real lefty fan , the 634 21L are so extraordinary too
