IH-526L - 19oz Left-Hand Twill Selvedge Denim Type III - Indigo

Day 1
Now I finally know why you guys call the Lefty the best jacket in the universe. It’s just an incredible piece of clothing! I could barely move when I wore it damp to work this morning. Just a few hours later it already fits like a glove – or rather like a suit of armor!

@AtariHunter cool … don’t think mine would stand like that now it’s got too soft.
You planning on wearing it everyday if possible?

I mean, it‘s a good thing after all that it will get softer I won‘t be able to wear it every day for now because it still gets hot here in Switzerland – summer isn‘t over yet. And I also have other pieces that I like to wear, so I don‘t think that I will wear it every day. But it will be a staple and I will wear it often for sure!

Only standing because still rigged

Couple months down the line becomes soft, more enjoyable

Nice mate yep I can confirm it definitely gets softer , and better with every wear

Thanks man! Yes, day one. The creases set in nicely thanks to the hint from the pros in this thread

[denim-dawg]

@AtariHunter impressive and inspiring! Have a super day and keep on fading in style

The beast arrived with perfect timing the day after my arrival back home from holidays. Stacked sending and timing at its best. Pictures before and after soak later. For now it is sitting around waiting for action..

Thank you very much! It really isn‘t magic, anyone can do it. Just soak it and wear it damp like the pros suggested! Have a nice day too

I have been eyeing this for quite some time now. May be on the next run, I'll grab one!

[PJS]

Two questions, is the sleeve opening big enough to fit over a Watch comfortably? Will the indigo rub off on lighter color shirts, chinos, etc?

[the246guy]

@Alex Is there a restock imminent? I have the notification set up nevertheless, would be glad to know if this is going to happen anytime soon?

[Alex]

The restock was recently, there won’t be another one for about a year I suspect

[flannel slut]

@PJS I can wear my watch with it but not buttoned up but def depends on what your working with... I do have feminine wrists. and you betchya it'll bleed

Mine fits easily over my watch (also buttoned up), so no problem there (my wrists are rather narrow though). But yeah, the indigo will bleed for sure, at least in the first couple of weeks or months.

[Alex]

@PJS I would expect that possibility in the short term, as I would expect my jeans to crock onto white shoes/t-shirts in the short term

[popvulture]

From what I gather, this particular denim is probably the most crocking-prone IH makes.
