Iron Heart Products - What do you think we should make?

@Max:
Regarding the Riders Jacket: The waist looks pretty slim to me. @ Giles: would you suggest sizing up to XXL for layering and being able to close it or is that possible with your XL?
I guess this fabric stretches a lot

I'm just wondering why the Lefty Trucker, although longer and with pockets, is named a 526? It's a bit confusing, wouldn't it be better for destinction to call it (or its possible other versions) for example 528 (2 inches added ;)) or 529, so everyone can see from its name, it's another version?
-
My old 70s Type III had 526 stamped on the inner side of the Buttons. Probably a denim geek will know what that means exactly.
-
Maybe a Harrington style jacket? 21oz super black, sateen, ventile or duck on the outside, blanket lining on the inside.

I don't see the point in making the lefty trucker in 18oz denim, but I would like to see that jacket in a lighter weight denim like 15oz for spring/summer.
Wish I was the @Giles living in Los Angeles,
15 oz I guess too light for IH at least 16.5 oz, but that's all in dreams, why I asked for 18, because 19 was so stiff and 18 being loomstate gives personal shape to jacket by stretching and adjusting to individual body shape!!! But can't hold my horses by the time Giles do something, I will be too old to rock n roll :D, Monday gonna be my last shot!!! -

So are you saying there is not much difference between 19 & 18? I was not too happy with 19, but was totally in love with 526L cut!!!
-
There's a stack of difference between the denims, but I am not going to make a lefty trucker out of the 18oz anytime soon….
When IH-526J-SBG expected? Just wondering, can't miss 526L this time tho!!!

Any plans to do a plain white, classic styled work shirt in the same vein as the great white (IHSH-36) or the TWSH-01?
Cheers,

Seems unlikely. As I recall, both the Great White and the heavy chambray white work shirt, the IHSH-58, didn't sell particularly well and Giles had to reduce prices on both of them to clear out the last of his stock. That's not an encouraging indicator for a new white work shirt.
