I’ve been in this combo lately. I have a pair of the super black 21oz bootcuts I found on eBay Japan coming this week. That’s my favorite IH Jean. I outgrew my last pair.
526PJ and 814 is my default config of late. I absolutely love the 526 jacket. Best thing I’ve ever bought.

I’ve got their take on the type 3. Pretty decent. Fits nice.

RE: IH-526PJ - 21oz Selvedge Denim Modified Type III Jacket - Indigo
I just purchased this jacket again from James Dant. The one I posted a few years back, I gave to my nephew to help him break free from the North face virus. I think perhaps the pattern has changed? Shoulders have more slope (like an a-2) and the sleeves seem fuller. Still my favorite IH piece. For comparisons sake here is the 526pj from maybe 5 or 6 years ago:
And here’s the jacket, day one received yesterday:
I look forward to the fall to break it in properly. Rather than soak it, I think I’ll just use a spray bottle to help shape and mold certain areas, collar and sleeve etc.

@mjunderw00d LOL. It’s real though. First leaf falls and everybody here turns into Han Solo with a navy blue north face “alpha dad” vest. I can’t let that happen to a family member.

RE: IH-101J-SR - 18oz Selvedge Denim Storm Rider Jacket - Indigo
I sorely wish I’d purchased a large. Feels too big/too long all around compared to my 526pj. And several sizes larger than my black 101j. Can’t figure it out. If there’s somebody who bought a large and wants to upsize to an xl I’m all ears for a trade. It’s such a beautiful jacket. Sleeve diameter is spot on. Otherwise it’s going back. I’m 5’11” 210lbs
