IH-526Jod - Overdyed Type III
-
Just looking @ this photo in detail, so many reflections, and likely goes on forever if there was enough detail. Stupidly cool, and totally irrelevant to the discussion, but yeah, awesome (I'm going to pretend you're not in your underwear
) -
Ha…. Ranger panties all day
and appreciate the kind words guys, in my eyes anyone can pull anything off as long as it's true to themselves and they feel comfortable in it. The rest will it take care of itself 
-
Ranger panties, fuck yeah
-
IH Type III's are game changers. All of them. Each one is nicer then the next.
-
I would probably take one too G, providing similar sizing to the mighty type III duck!

I'm surprised that this wasn't more popular. As far as I know there are no other high quality over dyed classic cut type 3's.
-
I'm glad to see that others are interested in this one–I like that the black can contrast with most blue bottoms.
For veterans of this jacket--does it stay pretty black, even after some wear? Some of the great pix earlier in this thread make it seem that way!
I also like the regular 526J--is this one the same jacket but with the black over dye? In any case--I'm torn between the two (if this 526Jod comes back in my size).

I've made about 150 to date so it's not unpopular….

The only way to get anything like accurate is to measure your Levi's jacket like this…..

And then compare with our sizing charts
My 21oz have never been uncomfortable the 21oz selvedge denim is super soft
Thanks Giles–
OK--here is my attempt at measuring my Levis jacket:
Shoulders: 18 (which is just a touch looser than I'd like)
Length: 24.5 (which is a bit longer than I want, too--Levis seems to cut long)
Chest (pit to pit): 19.24
Bottom: 18 X 2 = 36
Arm: 25.5
This jacket fits pretty well--a bit longer than I like. So I'm thinking I'd like to go small with the 526J(od)--but I'd love to get your thoughts.
That's great to hear about the 21oz--
-
The closest size in the 526J-0d to your Levi's jacket is an L. Which if you are 5'9 and 155 must either be way big, or the measurements are inaccurate.
Ha! Maybe both! I'll try measuring again–but I do think the Levis is big on me, but not way big. I'll send in new measurements later on today.
Also noticed: is the 526J sized a little differently from the OD?
-
cnjackson, the od isn't available right now, but if it was I would go either M or S. I'm approximately 5'10" 165 pounds and the M is the correct size for me, but by no means tight at all, especially in the chest and waist.
