IH-526L - 19oz Unsanforised Left Hand Twill Trucker. The Lefty Trucker
-
How warm are these?
-
I just tried it on, but the denim should be warmer than your usual 14 oz denim jacket and the 21 oz IH denim, but of course it's an unlined jacket. In General I wouldn't wear denim jackets to keep me warm, that is the Job of the layer underneath.
(Thanks for nothing, I know).

No that's good cheers Max. I don't want it to be too warm to throw on at anytime in the year if needed.

May I ask you which size you wear in these, Max Power? I'm pending between 44 (XXL) and 46 (XXXL) and wanted to grab the bigger one.
XL would be my size.

I dont know the exact measurements you are after but if its that close, you are prob better going up to the xxxl and trying to shrink it a bit. This denim does not feel "stretch friendly" in jacket form

Thank you. My usual (non-IH) size is XL but comparing the measurements of my Lee Rider and the Lefty Trucker I'll choose the 46 when it's available again.

Thank you for your advice, I've seen you're wearing the 46 and it looks awesome. I am looking for a longer jacket because I'm 1,92 m in height and all the other denim-jackets look always too short on me.

This one is I guess about 2 Inches longer in body and longer in arms as well! Go with your typical measurements in chest and shoulder and calculate sligthly shrinkage (as it's one washed) would be my advice.
Enjoy ya addiction!

I just coincidentally checked the price on this jacket (since I want to grab one) and it has increased by nearly 50 € over night… gotta love the € >:(.
It is now correct. I found a bug in the system that was not automatically updating the exchange rates as it should have been. All € purchases for the last month have been at a "beneficial" rate for the purchaser…..

Just pulled the trigger on one of these beasts. Lets hope the sizing works out.
