IHxSE TYPE III 14oz Overdyed With Hand Pockets
-
They look like the usual IH hardware you can find for example on the 526J but after the OD-treatment and exactly like the buttons on the 526JOD.
OK… then my eyes are playing tricks on me. My IH-526J-od has obviously silver coloured buttons that have been tarnished during the OD’ing. Looks to me like GC’s buttons are more yellowish/brownish in colour, like brass.

Here's another pic of the underside of the button. It looks /grey/silver-ish, or like it has a silver coating. I think you're original assumption is correct in that the overdye process may have stripped some of the coating off the button to reveal the original color. Again, I defer to @Giles since he would know more

Don’t get to wear this enough but the recent dip in temperature has made this a perfect Fall jacket. At this rate I may see some evo in 2-3 yrs [emoji848]

Has anyone given this jacket a wash yet? If so, did you experience any shrinkage?

I haven’t washed mine yet and likely won’t for awhile since mine only gets occasional wear

Might have to wear mine Friday— it’s gonna be warmer out so can squeeze this in one last time before it heads back to the closet

Looking forward to seeing how the lightweight denim fades compared to the heavier versions on here that have much more evolved photos.

I bought mine around January 2018 and can say that mine has had virtually zero fading. But, it doesn’t exactly get worn a ton either.

It will need to be worn super hard for a long time to get results, it seems.

I can’t speak to the jacket’s fading potential but the fabric loves a wash. It definitely acts as a catalyst for evo.
Agree. The triangle of terror type III looks marvelous, especially after the washes.
In my case, as much as I’d like to see evo on my jacket i’m not exactly in a hurry. I only wear mine a handful of times when the temps justify it, so it doesn’t need a wash and likely won’t for awhile.

We are in the same boat.

It is quite possibly the same for all OD, but I have experience from the 21oz and 14oz OD and the later seems to loose the black easier than the former with a wash, revealing indigo and giving a worn look, even without high contrast fade patterns.

Cool yeah like the old faded Jean jackets you would see from the 80s in thrift stores.
