IH-526Lod - 19oz Left-Hand Twill Selvedge Denim Type III - Indigo Overdyed Black
-
Both are xxl. The top is the 21oz “normal” ih jacket and the od is the one below.
-
Both look great. There are marginal differences in shoulder width, length etc, but both fit well and suit you. Any preference is a matter of personal taste or at worst, pointless nitpickery (which many of us are guilty of at times, myself included :D).
It is different denim, with a different treatment and none of them are digitally printed so there will always be differences between iterations, and in fact, examples of the same jacket.
You're a badass Mr. Lemon

@thomas01 yes. I can fit a light flannel. I find that’s it’s hard wearing a lot of IH clothes “stacked” on each other since they are so heavy. For example, wearing a 12oz western shirt can be done under this jackets, but that’s a lot denim.
-
Yes, though I don't always wear it that way. I can post to confirm if you don't belive me

Thanks @neph93. Because of how ahem sturdy the overdyed jacket is I was worried that it fit differently than my other type 3s. If I sized up, though, it would be too long in many different areas. It's a little tight when I button it; however, like my 21oz softened up over time, I suppose this one will, too. I wore it all afternoon (inside) and it is really molding to my body, especially my arms. Such an amazing denim. Well worth the wait.
-
No. Even with a t-shirt I could probably wear this year-round. I can fit a uhf underneath but that's where things get a little sung and much too warm. The kanreki is the perfect weight for me. (Man, I wish they made this type of flannel more often.) Once I break the jacket in, I might try wearing a uhf under it again. Normally, though, even when it is very cold, that's almost too much down here.

It makes me wish I bought a heavier pair of overdyed jeans. I have the 14oz, and while they are so nice, I'd love to have something in this weight.

I only have an the old 14oz in OD (I picked them up second hand as I was curious and barely ever wear them), so I cannot comment on the 142OD. However the 21oz OD is just beautiful stuff. So comfy, the colour is something else and their is a special texture to them too. I'd imagine they would do very well in warm climates. My IH-888s-OD are my go to pair in summer.
-
Ugh. So many jeans to buy. I still need a "normal" pair of 21 oz jeans and the SBGs, too.
-
Looking good @thomas01!

Ramon question for you all. You ever notice white marks caused by buttoning the jacket. I thought it may be from stress but it happened near the collar where there is plenty of room. I suppose the stress of the denim could cause it as well. It’s a beast. Somehow feels heavier than the 21oz denim.
-
OD process must increase ounces per square yard. But just a guess.

That may account for the heaviness. Just curious about the white marks. Not an issue. I like it, actually. Just curious about what causes it.

Maybe tarnish off buttons.

Gotta be the case.
