IH-101J - 1946 101J Riders Jacket

[neph93]

Looking spectacular. Those elbow creases are just lovely.

It's a great jacket once the fades kick in.  It didn't seem to get much love at first, but since all the fades pics have started coming through, people are seeing the potential.  Shame it's no longer made.

As mine's now in a state I'm happy with, I've been working on my 526J and 526-SBG.  All look great, but that's IH for ya.

@Lowlander looking fantastic dude!

[LewisStonehouse]

Any chance of this one coming back?

[Giles]

Nope, not in this guise anyway.  We have no more of this denim…..

[LewisStonehouse]

Cheers @Giles - it's the cut I'm in love with so will keep everything crossed

I'd love to see a Lee jacket with hand pockets in the 14 oz. I know you guys did the Stormrider, but…

Made an account just to comment on this jacket.
Any idea if Iron Heart will do another iteration of this? perhaps with hand pockets or a different denim fabric?
I learned about this jacket far too late. Every detail is perfect, especially those brass logo buttons.

Another iteration may well appear at some point, it is a great design. As for this one, the 18oz denim used is gone.

Hope your wish is fulfilled! I would love to watch another iteration fade and compare. Looking forward to the fall so I can wear mine again.

[Giles]

We will do one.  i'm just umming and ahhing about which denim to use…..

[neph93]

Any of the vintage 18oz around? Seems like it would be a good match.

[Giles]

That's def the lead contender…...

[neph93]

I think the style of the jacket lends itself to the hand and face of that denim. It would be a grand combination with the brass snaps, if they are planned for use. Crank up the contrast stitching and you’re on to a winner, I reckon.

.        Is the 19OZ IB in the conversation?

[wdw]

I know it won't happen, but I think it would look great in SBG.  I sold on the 101 superblack because it was too black, but am loving how my 526-SBG is looking now I'm wearing it more.

Nope, sorry….

[Jett129]

No worries,just hoping that someday that denim finds it’s way to a vest/shirt/jacket/or CPO.

That's great to hear! Looking forward to it. Being Iron Heart, it's only right to go hard and use one of their heavier fabrics.

18oz Vintage seems like the logical choice, but something tells me the 142 denim would be awesome in this cut. 21oz would work nicely too. Also I second the hand pockets for sure.
