@AdamJ very nice!

[Tago Mago]

@AdamJ did you get any shrinkage from the wash on this one? Thinking long and hard about my first type 3, this one is growing on me. Your progress looks great by the way

[AdamJ]

@Tago-Mago Nope, loosened up in the shoulder a bit but that's it

[popvulture]

@AdamJ I’m surprised this one’s listed as seasonal/limited run — is that really the case? Seems like it’d have the potential to be a regular item due to all the hype it’s getting. I just ask because I wanna keep spending time on my lefty for a while, which means this would just sit in my closet for a bit. I might wait if they were going to be available again next year.

For the time being, its planned to be a one off. If it sells well, we would consider making it constant

[Alex]

This is not the first time we have made a type iii, and the last one eventually was outletted. Not everything that gets love on here sells that well for us, annoyingly. Indigo black denim (in pants) being a good example. Everyone here raves about it, but all the 21 and 19 ib jeans ended up on discount to clear

Thanks @Alex — that all makes sense. People seem to go nuts for SBG, but then as I understand, black XHS didn’t do so well, right? Hard to predict. I’ll definitely be picking one of these up for posterity’s sake, then. I love a black denim jacket because it’s sort of a tuxbreaker

[Alex]

@popvulture right, and like I said, the last one did not do well, so in this case we have actual past data to go on

https://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/topic/5191/ih-526-sbg-21oz-super-black-fades-to-grey-type-iii-jacket/136

I am quietly confident it will do better this time around, but i've been wrong before and will be wrong again

[popvulture]

@Alex ahhh gotcha, I totally missed that part about one of these being run in the past already. That would’ve been just before I got into IH. Well, fingers crossed this one does well, because it looks badass.

[jglatz]

@Alex any update on possible release timeframe?

[JoshC]

Amended Just double checked and seems to still be on course for a June/July apologies for the confusion @jglatz

@jglatz There is nothing on the schedule in terms of timeframe at the moment, but keep an eye on this forum page for updates as we will update you guys with any information when we have it, however I wouldn't be surprised if its early next year for release.

My understanding is now that the initial expected release June/July what Adam posted a while ago has now been delayed/rearranged to next year?

I'm a little confused and hope you can make a statement when we can expect the jacket. A listing on the future release page in the shop of this jacket gave a little hope for a nearby release.

[JoshC]

@robinvonbatman Just double checked and still on course for June/July, previous comment amended. I think its the Jeans that will be later in the year so no need to panic they are coming

[robinvonbatman]

@JoshC thank you for your effort to double check! And awesome that we are still on course with the jacket!

Just out of curiosity, which model are you talking about for next year? 777 21oz sbg?

[A Former User]

@JoshC bring it on!

[FlavourFade]

That jacket looks so cool and I want it but I don't know where it's place would be since I have my 19oz lefty OD...

[Graham]

@FlavourFade I am in exactly the same boat!

[goldstone0]

I have neither and have been debating in my head several times which to go for.

[A Former User]

@FlavourFade you can choose: at the left of your 19oz or at the right of your 19oz.. don’t fool yourself there’s always space and place

[mjdnm]

@Heavy_blue this is the only right answer.
