Mine also turned up today. My second ever Type III after the IHJ-46 I bought last year. Thought the 17oz Duck was sturdy but this like armour plating. Looking forward to wearing this as far into the summer as I can…...a simply amazing Jacket. Told my young son he'll be inheriting this one day but he didn't seem very impressed and went back to watching the football. 

Thanks DevonReviewer.

It was your youtube channel that introduced me to selvedge denim, first with a pair of Levi 511's and recently with a step up to the mighty 777S-21. Just like you I'm loving the Iron Heart brand and particularly this forum which is always friendly and positive.

Haven't had chance to watch the update on the 555-01 yet but I've been waiting for you to upload the 6 month update and will definitely catch it this weekend.

Not many fit pics of this so thought I'd add one.

Absolutely love this by the way, the weight is great as a winter Tee for layering. Sized down to a small and glad I did as it fits perfect.

IHJ-46
IHTL-1501      IH call this a sweater but it's well fitted on me so I'll be wearing it strictly as a long sleeved Tee with extra layers over the top for added warmth

Yeah, for a long time they were out of stock in the size I wanted so I had plenty of thinking and reading (research) time. Quickly became apparent that 555-01's just weren't for me, which was a shame as I love the look of them on other forum members.  Sometimes you just have to admit that you're just not built for some cuts. Plenty of Iron Heart choice though, so something for everyone I think.

The fits spot on for me. Comparing them to the 511's which are also a lowish rise, I would say I have more room in these. That could be down to the 511's being a much tighter fit to start with and it took a long time for them to stretch out. Ended up wearing them without a belt and they eventually became fairly comfortable.

The 777S-21 were tight but not too tight from the first wear. Now the waist is perfect and the top block is breaking in nicely. The thigh measurement was always my biggest worry and the reason my the 555-01 weren't really an option for me, but that's perfect too.

All in all couldn't be happier.

Received my pair of these last week, also my first Iron Heart Jeans. My only other pair of Selvedge Jeans have been Levi 511 and these are by far the more comfortable from the first wear, even though the heft of the Iron Hearts is on another planet. Looking forward to being clad in these all through the UK Autumn/Winter.

Thanks neph93,

Awaiting deliver of some 21oz 777s so I'll be able to complete the heavyweight look. 

Bought this in May expecting I'd be able to wear it over a typical UK summer. Unusually hot summer put paid to that but now the hot spells gone I've finally had chance to start wearing it. This was my first IH purchase and I absolutely love the quality and the weight of the 17oz Duck.

Will Light Grey get a restock?

Any idea when these will be restocked?
