    on size 38 = 21.4 p2p,  what's approx post-wash measurement @chest?  … sz 40 seems, too big for me.

      The jacked it already washed, so minimal shrinkage.

            would you advice me a pre soak before wearing to avoid the indigo transfer into the shirts please ?

              It has already been washed, but that thing is so stuffed with indigo, you'll still get transfer…..

                Hey G, just out of curiosity how would you recommend washing this jacket?

                  Inside out gentle wash @30C.  Try not to spin too fast.  Don't tumble.

                    @Giles:

                    I remembered.  "Model" wears XL…..

                    thank you

                        James, do it. This is the best denim jacket ever. I'll post some pics rocking the Canadian tux next week.

                          I think its probably easier to pull off if the denim is at different stages of wear…
                          If the denim on the jeans and jacket looks identicle i dont think that is a good look personally!

                            Agreed.

                            For me, the perfect look is denim and tan. So I got a pointer chore coat to go with my IHs.

                            If I wore khakis/tan pants more often, I would definitely buy a type III in denim.

                              Maybe you should consider the superblack or OD type 3 instead. I have both the OD and the black duck (now extinct) type 3 and they go perfectly with blue denim.

                                I have the black duck which i love!
                                But i just think a jacket like this lefty trucker is super timeless… And that creates huge appeal for me!
                                I might have to branch out to different material for pants to solve this issue.

                                  Ha ha….cool. The black duck is an underrated beauty.

                                  Yeah the lefty is nice, but I'm leaving it for others. I'm with you on blue-on-blue thing!

                                    Personally, I have no issue with denim on denim (I guess there would be a problem if I did), but I do prefer different  stages of wear…

                                      I'm with G on this one. Although some dudes like Davito can pull off any denim on denim combo. I think that a demin type III is a staple that every guy should have.

                                        This jacket is on my wish list , been waiting for one with in and outside pockets. Hope it is not a one off.and becomes
                                        a staple item .

                                        Giles, are these available from IH Japan ?

                                        I'm in the 47% category of those who don't double denim up ( jeans bottom , denim shirt/jacket top )
                                        . Made that percentage number up ha ha

                                        Mirthing my way through life.
