IH-6526J Extra Heavy Corduroy Type III Jacket

[UnTucked]

Bought it off of a forum member about 2 years ago…

It's my favorite jacket for now, until all of you other guys put me to shame in your new ones soon, lol

@Giles is there a possibility that this extra heavy double weave corduroy fabric will make a comeback as a modified Type 3??

Unlikely that exactly this weave will come back. Firstly these were made a relatively long time ago and things change, secondly there are now heavy cord, modded type III’s in constant production already. Adding to that line is probably unnecessary. Never say never though…

Yep, super-unlikely I think.  It was a beautiful fabric and stunning jacket, but it did not sell well.  Admittedly it was badly undersized which did not help, but it may also have just been that we were too far ahead of the corduroy revival.  We have made the decision to continually produce the IHJ-69 in black, khaki and brown, which is probably enough cord type III's for the moment…
