IH-526L - 19oz Unsanforised Left Hand Twill Trucker. The Lefty Trucker

Did everyone have creases in the arms when you first got the jacket? From
When the jacket was stored and shipped. Do they go away after time or is it worth ironing them out?

I have a crease on the side of the jacket that has never gone away, it's started to fade along the crease. I never bothered to iron it out or mess with it. I can't remember if the arms had a crease, if so it's gone now.

The crease in the lower arms has gone but it's still there in the upper. Tempted to take the iron to it but never like going near denim with a iron

I'd ask Giles for some advice before using an iron.

[Arabit]

I don't have random creases. I would just leave it alone IMO

[Giles]

I'd iron it…..

[spitfiredealer]

Inside out? @Giles

[Giles]

Yes….

[spitfiredealer]

Cheers. That's tonight's task then.

Currently waging a war of will power with the buttons.

Let us know how it goes. I don't think I own an iron so I have to just live with my creases!

[spitfiredealer]

Well I gave it iron. Can't say they have gone completely but are less visible.

[Giles]

Try dampening and do from both sides…...Don't worry about the sheen that the denim gets it'll disappear......

[spitfiredealer]

Right iron is out again I will give it another go

[spitfiredealer]

That's got it! Cheers for the tips @Giles

Had the hardest time deciding between the L and the XL in this - arrived yesterday, and very glad I went for the XL.  Going to give it a soak to shrink it a bit and it should end up perfect.

Thanks to Giles and Paula for the excellent service, as always!

[spitfiredealer]

Is truly a great jacket. Enjoy

Mine is starting to break in nicely. Still stiff as hell I might add.

Some electric blue showing on the inside

Thanks, your posts helped me decide on the XL.  Seems like the 19oz LHT is a pretty fast fader - can't wait to start breaking this one in.  Hopefully I'll have a few more cool days before temps really start rising.
