IH-526J Indigo 21oz Selvedge Denim Type III

[Stokely]

I've been needing/wanting a new denim jacket.  As a recent convert to IH, can anyone give me some advice on sizing.  I've seen measurements and I would be a large, but I'm wondering how it hangs, how it layers, etc.  Any insight would be nice!

I am an XL in almost all IH tops.  I am 6'2", 42 in chest and about 185:

Compared to most Japanese Type III denim jackets this fits really like a typical US version..sleeves are not too short, body is just as long as it should be - in other words , if your shoulder measurements are correct you will find this perfect with a simple T and also good layered with a hoodie or a shirt

DENIM DEMON

I understand what you're going through btw… Same denim as the 527J?..

[ALEX1976]

Same denim?i think so;-)
I choose the 526j
I want a classic denim jacket
But i think all jackets and products of IH
are awesome!
Nice weekend to all denim suckers;-)
I think i go to bed with the 526j an dc4001:-)

Have I dreamt it or did I read of a version of this jacket with 4 pockets?

[Giles]

Kiya told me it would arrive in January.

HUGE CAVEAT HOWEVER: from what I read on SE's site, it would seem like SE's version is 19oz and NOT the 21oz fabric we have all grown to love and adore and worship.
