IH-526L - 19oz Left-Hand Twill Selvedge Denim Type III - Indigo
-
To add on; I never seem to get as much shrink from washing (mind you with intentions of shrinking) as what comes from the OD process.
-
Seems to me that they run a little bigger this time

I got both the OD and regular. The regular is slightly bigger. Longer sleeves and slightly larger p2p. I got both 4xl. I am 6 foot 225 pounds for reference.

Of cause all folks now listing their sizes refer to a previous version with slightly smaller measurements...
This is a good shout for anyone else reading this in the future.
For reference, I was going back to look at the previous sizing chart before the update using the internet archive. Looks to me like this years L is almost identical to the prior run of XL.https://web.archive.org/web/20220818163109/https://www.ironheart.co.uk/jackets/ih-526l.html

Ok how I did it.
My size is XL
I wear size IH large in all my shirts mostly.
If this jacket little big. Lets it be.
I went half inch bigger soak right away.Become that’s fit you want.
As for wearing true to size or sizing up wouldn’t work for me or recommend it.
It’s a hard solid denim. At start can be uncomfortable to wear.
That’s the reason to soak it.
Makes its easier to wear a little. -
As beautiful as all of these jackets are---talking about you @Kasi , and @Jcaz6996 and all of the others---
The one to beat and is still in my opinion one of the absolute Kings of this Lefty jacket is @Twin --and Im surprised that he has been quiet for so long .
His Lefty is just as epic as it gets! -
Thanks @dinobarnesberlin
-
Chiming in my love for this thread and this great jacket -shout out @dinobarnesberlin for the @twin reference. I lurked over his pics for a good while. Then it seems he passed the baton to @Oaktavia, who, surprise surprise, wore/wearing his to a state of perfection. And now @Kasi and @Jcaz6996 have taken over the important task of high lighting this incredible fabric regardless of heat stroke. Xoxo

Thanks for that
@flannel-slut -
You are sure welcome Kasi— and i didnt mean to leave @Oaktavia out— you are killing it hard just as well!
-
@dinobarnesberlin yes exactly, @twin is the ultimate Lefty tamer, he has 5+ years on me let alone all of us. His jacket is a thing of absolute beauty. He definitely inspired me entirely to take the Lefty journey and still to this day is my favorite IH peice. I hope he comes back to join us one day. @flannel-slut nice job highlighting the sequence.
-
