IH-526Lod - 19oz Left-Hand Twill Selvedge Denim Type III - Indigo Overdyed Black
-
@T4920 thanks for posting this photo! Your jacket looks great! I really dig that 19oz left hand twill fabric. I would have to say after some good wear this jacket certainly looks more blue. Nothing wrong with that, but I'm wanting a straight up black denim jacket. I would say if Iron Heart makes a straight up black (no OD) type 3 in 19oz left hand twill, that would be the black denim jacket to rule them all.

@T4920 looks awesome man!! That's the one I'm after; just need patience I guess. Hopefully this spring I'll finally be able to join the ever elusive "Iron Heart Lefty" club!!
-
@Nostradamion cheers man! As much as I also want to regular indigo version, I'm aiming to wear this one for a decade and really break it in before starting over with a new one.
I know the jacket is built for the challenge, but I'm not sure my discipline is...

@T4920 This one is really developing fantastically. Really love the current colour tone
-
@Luijim78 what's your favorite out of all those and the one you wear most?
-
@Luijim78 thanks. Yeah pretty much decided on that. I plan to live in that one for a year before I get a second. We'll see how that goes

@tody Around March if you're wondering
Hey @AdamJ are these still on track for a restock sometime in March?

I sold my 19 oz Lefty last year due to being so uncomfortable. I got the sizing correct, but it was just miserable to wear. Mind you, I own about 5 or 6 IH type 3s with different weights/fabrics, but I just couldn't get past the rigidness of that material. Knowing that the OD process softens the material quite a bit, how much "softer" and pliable is this piece compared to the standard Lefty? For reference, my favorite type 3 is the 21oz Indigo, which is a fantastic piece.
To add: I'm wearing my 21oz 777-ODs currently and they have been great this week, so I am familiar with the OD softness, just unsure if that softness translates over to the Lefty.

@AdamJ Bummer. Thanks for letting me know.

@VegaS10 Adding to what @Luijim78 said, it's very wearable. I was pleasantly surprised the first time putting it on. I don't have the Indigo Lefty to compare.. but it's more robust than the 526-SBG.
It might be my favorite IH piece if I had to choose. I also have the 777-21od, and it doesn't feel even close to this jacket. There is just something about wearing the jacket that feels and looks so badass.

The 19L od is much easier to wear of the bat compared to the 19L. I have both and it's night and day. The 19L is way stiffer and takes longer to soften up.
