IH-526L - 19oz Unsanforised Left Hand Twill Trucker. The Lefty Trucker
-
@rohitsingh sorry IH-526L didn't work out for you. This jacket is being released in double indigo duck and in SBG denim later this summer, so either of those options might work out for you. I think the duck will be especially nice. Just keep them away from the dryer!
Haha!!! Sure superfuzz, and thanks for the update
-
Unbelievable customer service, far above and beyond the call of duty.
@rohitsingh the problem with the jacket is certainly that you shrunk it in the dryer, sorry but that is what happened.
The published pit to pit measurement is 23.8", you have washed it and put it through a hot dryer, also it is one washed but not sanforised so therefore getting about an inch of shrinkage is not unreasonable to expect.

I am not sure about shrinkage but even before soak it was same fit only thing after wash it got comfortable a bit, also I did not dry it completely in dryer just enough to wear it again so it stretches out an inch while it still wet. Description states "Unsanforized but one-washed, so little or no shrinkage", What ever I should praise IH enough, though I never asked them to return due to these odd circumstances but they still offered help!!! This is all good!!! I wish I had better explanation, it is what it is

So it's no longer for sale? Is the pit to pit 23 or 22? If it's 23 I'd be happy 2 grab it. Oh & as far as customer service G$ & the crew always go above and beyond.
So I got this right how long did you own it? Folks shout from the mountain top when it's shifty customer service, but for this great customer service pretty sure we won't hear about it. . .
-
I do want one, got to see what G$ man says.
-
So is the jacket still for sale and what does it measure? I might be intersetd as well.

Apologies but what "SBG" stands for, I am also kinda liking IH-2526J 17oz Brown Cotton Duck Modified Type III Jacket!!!
-
SBG = 21 oz superblack that fades to Grey, like the 555-03 for example.

Anyone owns XXL size could post the actual measurements here? Its too painful to let this jacket go away!!!
I am just trying to understand for my next purchase, I took my best fitting G-star jacket and compared this one for measurements … Wish if @Giles surprises me !!! I know everyone here wondering why I did not exchanged this immediately when this was tight BECAUSE XXXL was sold out and only way was stretching this up & in end messed up everything -

If you get the Brown Cotton Duck be sure the check the measurements because it comes up a bit smaller than tagged size IMO.

Thanks Superfuzz!!! Recently got jacket from Railcar Fine Goods, workshop is in neighborhood, it's L and opening is 21.5 and its not snug, that way measurements matches for brown duck, but I am not confident as 526L also suppose to be 21.5, Self Edge is like 9 miles away but they too are out of stock, I prefer indigo denim more … so confused!!!
-
@rohitsingh I think the Lefty Trucker is going to be rerun, so just hold out and you can get a XXXL.

I'm confused more than usual, you are still holding on to the Lefty Trucker?
