Cheers mate appreciate it

@Daniel-San nice one how you getting on with yours ?

Since I got mine, I realise what a great jacket this is. However, I have one question. I seem to get arm twist rather like leg twist with 19L jeans. Is this normal? I assume so as it is natural for left twills…

Soldiering through the warm weather, incredible transformation man

What a great jacket this is. I had been wearing mine for a few days and then put on a 13oz jacket from a different brand, felt like a handkerchief compared to the 526L.

@pechelman - thanks. I had missed that! It has become such a long thread, it is perhaps not surprising that things slip through the cracks.

Finally get to wear this beast a bit in the home-office today. Checked the measurements for my XXL after a warm soak. A bit of shrink overall, but shoulders still a bit large when wearing with T-shirt only, but good to go for layering.
Shoulders: 21 -21
Length: 28,8 -28,0
P2P: 24,5 - 24,0
Waist: 21,8-21,5
Opening: 22,0 - 21,75
Sleeve: 28,0 - 27,0
Sleeve opening: 5,0 - 4,9

UPDATE: I noticed in the mirror that only one side of the shoulder seemed a bit large. Checked and found 1cm difference in the length of the shoulder seams. Now give it a 40C wash (no spin etc) in addition to my initial warm soak to make sure this is not caused by uneven exposure to warm water in the first soak

I recently put on my 292-IND again after a long time, which I thought was really heavy when I bought it. After I was on the road lately primarily with my Lefty, the 292 feels as if it were made of silk. Still a great shirt and quite rugged! What I learned though: Even the definition of heavy denim seems relative

For sure man. Even the 19oz IHSH-396 feels lighter than the Lefty.

It isn‘t a slow fader after all, I guess. Love those blues popping out!

[Oaktavia]

@AtariHunter I would not consider it to be a slow fader. I recall mine looking different from week to week. Your fit is spot on, such an awesome cut with the modified T3. Stoked to start wearing mine again this fall.

@Oaktavia I would agree mate, first signs of electric blues pop early on it’s breaking though to the next stages takes some doing ..

Slowly but surely

[Oaktavia]

@Jcaz6996 Damn those sleeves look killer. I need to catch up to you!

[Kasi]

When just like looking at them

Reflection of art
