IH-526J Indigo 21oz Selvedge Denim Type III

@browniemcghee:

I think they may come without contrast stitching on the pockets.  Haraki seems to be favoring that lately.  I agree it looks nicer with tonal stitching on the hand warmer  pockets.

The sample piece in the 526PJ thread looks to have tonal stitching for the pockets.

We asked retailers if they wanted to continue production, none of them said yes.

Thats a bummer.. I seriously think is the baddest kick ass jacket Ive ever owned! Cant wait to beat it up! Should chuck a few pics in for a last hurrah in my new 666Duckies! Retailers!! Don't kill the classics!! 526J is king!

^Great fit and combo (esp. with the Vans)!

As my old one didn't fit me properly anymore (too big :-[) I decided to snag this beauty again a size smaller before it goes extinct. Already as excited as I've been when ordering it the first time.

That’s awesome man! Good decision

I've seen it became extant again with a new price (or is the €uro crashing again?). So will there be a restock of the missing sizes?

[Giles]

There may be a restock.  I have gone out to retailers and asked for orders (I have got none yet).  I thought that it would be a no-brainer, so I made the product extant again, I may have been premature.

The rise in price has got nothing to do with currency fluctuations.

Costs have been increasing drastically in Japan.  New labour laws have increased employment costs by 20%.  Some of our more recent releases have taken the new cost base into account, most of the older products have not had the new cost base factored into wholesale cost and retail price.

I have asked Haraki to get all the Japanese costs sorted so we can get our pricing corrected.  You may (probably) see the retail price of most of the older extant products rise once we have done that calculation.

I costed and priced the IH-526J at the same price as the IH-526PJ, as that is the best and most accurate cost I have for something similar.

[Dion]

Fair enough. I've asked because I've ordered an XXL but it was too big (already on its way back to Goz Vegas) so I would happily exchange it for an XL (or even an L depending on the measurements of the new batch). I really hope retailers won't let this glorious jacket die…

[brobles]

Just picked up the last XL from Canoe Club. Had to do it!

I almost sold this but recently lost some weight …glad I kept it
