IH-531 - Wabash Chore Jacket

[zatenm]

What a sweet jacket - classy in a badass kind of way (or the other way around)!

[Scottystyles]

Yeah mate, you can fluff on and eat cake with gals or roll in the shit with one of these bad boys

[zatenm]

Absolutely. Also feels a bit like a cowboy jacket to me. Maybe I should try some texas boots with it

[Scottystyles]

I think the 532 is more cowboy riding style jacket.. See here.. Especially the brown or beige.

Wow, where do these come from?? I'm a sucker for IH duck and in this cut, it's just sick! The beige is particularly iconic to me. Are these still to come out?

[Giles]

No, they are available to special order.  Drop me a PM

Yeah mate, I'm sucking to the beige as well. Only because I have a brown 2526J anyway.. I've been meaning to hit up pimp master G to see if they do an XXL in the 532.

[Giles]

You are in luck….

S M L XL XXL
BROWN 3 7 8 7 5
BEIGE 2 5 3 5 4
BLACK 1 2 2 1 1
WHITE 1 3 5 3 1

[Scottystyles]

You evil man!!

[Scottystyles]

So what's  it going to hit on the wallet G? Little less than the 531?
Also, I'm assuming the sizing is the same as the 531?

[Giles]

Same as 531 (USD400), The 531's should be more like USD450 - USD475

Edited because I messed original post up

[zatenm]

Very tempting! Wish these had a corduroy collar and inner pocket and ideally some inner lining for warmth. But very sweet nonetheless.

[Scottystyles]

You can pick up Carhartt Chorey's like that easy. This cut slides a steamer on them though. I'm flogging a sand beige Carhartt heritage chorey on eBay now actually.

[zatenm]

Could not resist and pulled the trigger on the beige 532 
Figured I'll wear the wabash to work and the duck on any other day. Also, thinking of having some lining inserted on the 532 if I can find a trustworthy tailor. Can't wait till it gets here

[Scottystyles]

I'm jealous!!

[zatenm]

Thanks mate! 
I have to say I wouldn't have been even mildly interested, had you not shared that link. Much appreciated

[Scottystyles]

No worries mate! Glad I could help

IH-532 L Beige quick fit pic

[Finn666]

you might want to size down to a Medium, no?
looks a tad too big imo…

[zatenm]

Thanks for the comment Finn666. I agree it does look 1 size too big. Possibly caused by the duck still being too "fresh". I tried the 531 wabby in both L and M and ended buying the L which was clearly the better fit. Measurement are supposely the same on the 532. I'll measure both tonight and a hopefully post better pics. I'll be looking forward to your valuable opinion!
