IH-526J-SBG - 21oz Selvedge Denim Modified Type III Jacket - Superblack (Fades To Grey)

[popvulture]

I hear ya. Having a really comfy one would be super nice as an alternative.

If you want a truly soft drape, get the flagship 21oz type III! My sbg remains pretty rigid, even after years of wear. It’s surely softer than a lefty (though I don’t have one, so don’t really know), but I would say it’d be a stretch to call it soft.

[AdamJ]

It's certainly got some weight to it, but the sample I'm wearing now is soft. The production version has nowhere near the crunch or rigidity of the 19oz left hand twill denim for sure

@sabergirl I definitely have IH Syndrome, in the sense that I bet the SBG type III would feel radically soft compared to the Lefty. Practically feel like I'm not wearing pants when I wear my 634SBGs after wearing XHS most of the time.

^ This 100%
I've been wearing XHS exclusively for the last few years. I've recently been wearing my 21oz ODs again quite a bit and they too feel like i'm wearing velvet pants.

Some bad news for the fans of red Ws - despite the sample having a red one, and us requesting that the production run keeps that, the factory got confused and moved the red W back to black (as it was on the original IH-526-SBG). Clearly, it's not worth the cost and environmental impact to send these all the way back to Japan to be restitched, so we will have to live with the black W on this run, and adjust on future runs...

Sorry guys

@Alex I think the black W will look fantastic as the jacket around it fades to grey.. more incentive to get the fades rolling

thanks for seeing the positive mate

[talexander]

Completely agree with @DeeDee85. I think the black W is going to look great. In fact, I was already considering trying to carefully sharpie it. This is a plus to me. Really hope the measurements work!

Yeah I think the black W is better on this jacket.

[Daniel San]

besides the fact I love the red W , I think a black one on SBG will look awesome

[Hohba01]

My XHSbb have a black W i prefer black over red on SBG

[VegaS10]

@Alex , bro at this point I don't care the color of the W, I just need this jacket in my life.

[VegaS10]

@Mizmazzle , I had to sell my lefty due to how uncomfortable it was. I washed it, threw it in the drier, wore the hell out of it, and no matter what I did, it never became soft enough to be comfortable.

[Luijim78]

@Alex I don't mind the black W either, I already have one on my SB vest and I love it
