IH-526J-142ib - 14oz Selvedge Denim Modified Type III Jacket - Indigo/Black

[Nostradamion]

Jacket was delivered yesterday, and it’s awesome!! Glad I went with the XL; it fits perfect; the large would’ve been too small. Now the journey begins on trying to get some of those galactic fades I’ve seen on this model.

@Nostradamion We do like pictures on here

[Nostradamion]

I’ve got to get some better pictures, but here’s a quick one I took earlier.

@Nostradamion Nailed the fit, congratulations!

[pechelman]

agree! looking good
I forgot how dark this thing starts out, enjoy the journey @Nostradamion !

[Nostradamion]

@pechelman Thanks much!! Yeah, it’s definitely dark. Really hoping I can do it justice in the fade department. Also have a UHF incoming which I’m really looking forward to.

@Nostradamion Good stuff and glad it worked out for you!

[Nostradamion]

Quick question for you guys: is the BSP-14 the same jacket as this one? Just curious. Looks like it was a collab between Iron Heart and Self Edge.

[Alex]

@Nostradamion this is indigo black denim, the SE collab jacket you refer to was made from the origional (not double twisted, or -142, denim) and then overdyed black

[Nostradamion]

Thanks; appreciate it.

Hey everyone,

Thinking about picking one of the last few 14oz IB up from UK but not sure about size... There is only 3XL available and this is how my 3XL lefty OD fits... The 14 oz has slightly wider shoulders and that's what I am unsure about, because I think especially with just a tee the shoulders are already a bit too wide... i can now button the lefty up no problem with a tee but with a sweater I'd go unbuttoned atm but on a weightloss journey right now... I'm afraid that the type3 will look ridicoulius with 10kg less what do you think? I'm 184 cm and 95 kg right now

@FlavourFade Predicting how and where you weight loss journey will take you is extremely difficult as is buying clothes for your future self.

I may be wrong, but you may want to wait until you reach milestones in your journey as rewards for your efforts.

I have been running for over the last year and my physical shape has changed, while the number on the scale has not. I have gained muscle, while at the same time losing body fat. Clothes fit better, went down in pants sizes, and where I was a solid XL in shirts am at the cusp of dropping down to large.

[FlavourFade]

@goosehd thanks! Your probably right about that. I am doing a lot of crossfit since january and already built some muscles and my main goal is to get in shape, not just to get lighter... But missing out on the 409 gave mebserious fomo

But I have two items on the way right now so maybe wait for a type 3 in a year from now

@pechelman said in IH-526J-142ib - 14oz Selvedge Denim Modified Type III Jacket - Indigo/Black:

Had for almost a year and worn most days since. Got its first wash today.

About a year later but probably only another few months of wear. Really love the 14ib fabric.

@pechelman killer faded jacket man

[pechelman]

Thanks @Oaktavia!

The journey on this one has slowed but I'm really enjoying where it's at even if it's barely faded compared to some others.

[FlavourFade]

@pechelman amazing progress. it's never easy to fade jackets for me, so that in mind yours is absolutely awesome.
