IH-526Jod - Overdyed Type III

[FurattoHeddo]

Just my $0.02 but the 46 suits you better (and you can button it up)…

It's not a very good pic.  I had a giant shirt on and threw on the jacket for a quick pic a couple of years ago when I got it.

I can button up the 42 but It's snug at the opening and rarely do.  Still love it.  It's actually my most worn item.

Edit: I live in San Deigo so the only time we button jackets or layer is when we're near the ocean at night.  But it's usually cool here.  Tee shirts, flannels, and denim are daily, year around wear.

That first pic is AMAZING, dude. In fact, I'll go so far as to say it's one of the best pics I've seen of this jacket.

I would be incredibly happy with that fit.

[7tacos]

Yeah, thanks for the insights.  I'm understating my love for that 46.  I'm amazed by it myself.  It's my dad's.  I got it from Zhivago.  It rules all.

I just hand washed it a few hours ago and have been looking at it in the sun outside and it's the coolest thing I've ever seen in a piece of clothing.  I'll post pics of it.

Selling my 46 OG type III OD

[7tacos]

Gave it a good hand wash.  Didn't change the overall appearance much.  The stitching's more apparent as some of the dye washed out.  The arm combs are slightly brighter.  Haraki's over dye is pretty stout stuff.

Edit: one more close up.

Thx. You've got a pretty nice fit, too. Its a damn nice jacket!

Btw. My combs did look great after some days already. 9 months later they look pretty much the same

The 46 is really heavy.  Denser than the 21 0z because of the od treatment.  You can really feel the heft of when moving.  This is true love. 
We're quite lucky I think.

pretty versatile 4sure. I wore mine on hot summer days in the evening or with a flannel or hoodie and scarf, with temperatures under the freezing point… It looks great with a chino and faded jean due to it's dark hue.

My jacket enjoys the last sunbeams of yesterday´s dusk.

Fantastic…..

[Sugar Mountain]

Shee-it, look at them there combs…

[CLJ]

Damn good stuff. Really starting to like the OD fabric

[unharmed]

The OD is just so awesome.

[zhivago]

Really glad to see this jacket getting the love it deserves.

[daynym]

Thx guys. I enjoy this jacket pretty much. It is truly worth the money. It's a nice feeling walking through the streets, eyeing all those jack wolfskin jackets and knowing that I most definately won't see anyone else wearing MY jacket

[daynym]

And another picture for all you combs lovers out there

[thomasnunnally]

Lovely!

[daynym]

Thx.

It´s getting pretty cold in Germany. As for now, the jacket is still warm enough with a hoodie underneath.
I have lot´s of warmer jackets for this season. But I am not able to stop wearing this jacket…
