131 days of wear 2 washes in da machine. It's been in the 60s and 70s here in North Carolina and this jacket is just perfect. Really starting to develop some character.

@DeeDee85 heck yeah man

[DeeDee85]

@Oaktavia got me pondering what item I need the slubby denim in now. Has the shorter body bothered you at all on the type 2? Or the lack of hand warmer pockets?

[Oaktavia]

@DeeDee85 the length is fine for me doesn't bother me at all. I used to miss having pockets but I got used to not having any.

[DeeDee85]

@Oaktavia I may give this one a go then.. did you go with your usual shirt size? My usual XXL is sold out but the dimensions on the XXXL don’t look too far off workable

Chipping in here. Body length bothers me not a jot, and I prefer the size and the placement of the chest pockets over a Type III. Don't really miss the hand warmers either....

[DeeDee85]

@Giles thank you for the input. Do you wear a type II in this denim? Would love to see some pics? The dims for a XXXL are almost identical to my XXL corduroy type III and my wife loves that so it’s her fault if I order this right?

[Giles]

No, mine is the IHJ-51 - 18oz vintage denim. This is about a year ago, I will take another photo later today....

@Giles wonderful Sir , congratulations

[DeeDee85]

@Giles that’s looking fantastic! I’m guessing with me at 5’10, you are a good few inches taller than me too aren’t you? I just need to get over my fear of the shorter pieces

[Giles]

I'm 6' 1" ish.....

[Luijim78]

@DeeDee85 I understand very well my friend, I think we are the same height at 180cm and I'm afraid that the t1/2s are always overcooked and too Boxy Fit

[DeeDee85]

@Luijim78 there’s only one way to find out isn’t there.. now to convince the wife..

[Oaktavia]

@DeeDee85 my 507 is an XXXL which fits more like an XXL. I am not sure if mine is from the latest batch though (eBay). And to add to what G said, the chest pockets are great to have compared to T3 models. I use them a lot, dig their size, shape and placement are what originally attracted me to T2.
