@Oaktavia it fits you like a glove my friend , it's a gorgeous jacket and as usual seeing it on you made me want to take it out of the closet

@Oaktavia This is going to be rad. It almost makes me want another Type 3.

[Oaktavia]

@Mister_Brue this one would suit you well man

@Oaktavia looking phenomenal on you brother!! I am still debating this one, a 33 or the 21oz sbg as my next jackets/shirts project. The indigo black is really something special

[Oaktavia]

@FlavourFade if it were me I'd go with the 33 and one of the jackets. Depends on what you want out of a jacket though to make that decision. What you want it to look like after some wear. The SBG and 142ib look super different after time. Both jackets are amazing. One heavy, one lighter. Grey vs. Indigo...there is no wrong choice.

[FlavourFade]

@Oaktavia yeah you are right I think both are great and I will just decide when the sbg arrives which one it will be. Super hard for me since I want to take a step back and not just get both would you say it feels noticebly lighter than a lefty? More breathable?

A 33 will follow next year too I think but I still have a 62 I want to work on more first.

The 142ib? It's much lighter than a Lefty. It's like a robust version of the typical jean jackets that normies wear. Nothing compares to a Lefty.

[FlavourFade]

@Oaktavia yeah because I feel like the 21 oz Type3 is more breathable and softer as the Lefty but still warm so the 142ib could fill a hole there

The leftie is a whole different thing. It's so much more rigid and rough than the 14oz and 21oz. It is more wind proof also. It's a very tough denim but fades like no other.
