IH-526Jod - Overdyed Type III

@neph93:

…will I be able to button it...

You'll need to put in a bit of effort, expect sore fingertips in the beginning 

Word. But that's a function of the mechanics of new denim and fat ass buttons. I'm more worried about chest measurements[emoji1]

@neph93:

Right [The plan is, I'm going to throw a load of factoids at you and you'll come up with the perfect size for me, then I'll give you loads of cash. Deal?

Deal done. First IHJ = incoming.](http://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=1)

This bad boy is arriving today… before I start wearing it with white t-shirts, can anyone tell me what the bleed is like, or does over-dyeing kill that?

I can only safely vouch for my experience but my IH 526Jod did not bleed on my white Tees at all. I would give the jacket a good rub and see what colour your hands go just to be on the safe side… [emoji6]

Thanks for that @Black Orchid  . Just put my hands on it so quick and dirty fit pic while I'm at it. I'm happy to say, it looks better in real life.

Looks great @neph93 good fit, enjoy wearing it.

Cheers, fella. Starting to get broken in now. I loves it.

I am so tempted…WHY!!! Too pretty, I love Overdyed items

Never noticed there are no hand warmers. Hmmmmm

[grandmasterben]

Fight the crowd, type 3's look bad with handwarmers anyway!

True dat.  I was sure the lack of pockets would annoy me, but the jacket is so badass it does. not. matter.

[grandmasterben]

Yes sir. I would love to see the self edge collab over dyed denim in a short type 3 with no pockets, that'd be an instacop!

[Jordonf9]

Seeing how is OD, is she soft out of the bag?

I should have it Wednesday, I need to STOP my addiction. I never knew one company could draw me in this much…

[Giles]

Pretty stiff, but softens up really quickly….

[neph93]

It's the seams that keep it stiff. And being a type III there are lots of seams. But that's what's so great with having a typeIII in od 21oz, there's so much engineering and architecture it's like wearing a bit of Notre Dame.

[grandmasterben]

It's actually crazy how different the self edge od denim is compared to the 21 oz. imo this jacket is really comfortable and wearable, the self edge version is just nuts though!

The SE version looks very close to this. Longer body but shorter arms, I like the longer arms in this version.

Why you say SE version is nuts?

[grandmasterben]

Purely in terms of denim. It's a lot stiffer and takes much longer to fade.

In terms of wearability and general usefulness, 526j-od wins. In terms of whatthefuckery, the self edge models got no equal!

[Giles]

There are various versions of the SE overdyed jacket using different denims, which one are you talking about?
