@Chibs You can always check out the list of retailers at the beginning of the product thread for a second chance at scoring something that may be OOS at HQ. Handy, but dangerous.

Didn't realize this but I'm safe for now. The local store that stocks the M65 only has it in a medium. I'm large so thank the maker!!

Frydays, short walk from IH. Watched the Isle of Wight ferries coming and going. The seagulls keeping a beady eye on the chance of grabbing some leftovers..

Does anyone find the sleeve opening on this jacket to be too limiting? Looks awfully small compared to the shirts I have.

You can open the cuff button if you feel that way. When I wear gloves that's what I do.

I never button the cuffs on 526’s.

There is a 19oz version of this demin coming to a website near you soon.

Just jeans thus far…..But take a deep breath, and you never know what'll happen......

Rereading this thread. Is this still something in the mix?

@Oaktavia The jean version has been and gone, as part of FW2020 sold poorly from memory

Yeah my brain farted loud a moment ago. Thanks Alex LOL.

Edit: I am on the fence between this one and the 21oz SBG. Part of me says heavyweights are superior but as I am growing with my IH taste I am starting to be drawn to lighter weights too. I like the idea of many creases on the arms for fades. And I am so drawn to indigo/black. I think a fitted look with this one would be so sick. And I would be able to wear it in warmer weather easier too. Any thoughts on this?

[pechelman]

I found this wears pretty hot in the sun, especially when new with how dark it is. It also doesn't breathe as well as 21 and thanks to the tighter more dense fabric, it also seems to conduct heat/cold better than 21. Still, it's a great jacket and the thinner/lighter fabric makes it decent to travel with in my experience. Fit, mine seems to be cut slimmer compared to other jackets where I'm normally a large but went with an XL in this.

Really just depends if you want sbg or ib.

[popvulture]

@Oaktavia mannnnnn, I’d wait!

[Oaktavia]

@pechelman good points all around. I think I am just more drawn to the indigo/black is what it comes down to. I ordered XL which seems to be a better size for me lately and based on my measurements. Hopefully this one fits well but slim and fitted like a T3 should. I would like to wear CPOs over it and wear the T3 like a shirt. I don't think I would really do that with a 21oz SBG.

@popvulture I went ahead and ordered this one. I totally get why folks on here love the SBG jacket but the more I think about it, the more I just love indigo/black. And I'm after a closer fit too with a T3. My Lefty T3 is so heavy and I sized to be roomy. If I am going to have two denim T3s, I think wearing them differently would make more sense to me. I think I will be happy with either one.

[pechelman]

Fwiw, mines an XL and I think I'm usually a size down from you, but I don't how the sizing chart may have changed since I got mine. Hope it works out and looking forward to the pics!

[Oaktavia]

@pechelman I have lost some weight, especially my beer gut which is pretty much gone. I am going on one year with no booze. So I think my size is smaller now. I have an XL big buck that surprised me when it fit better than the XXL when I tried them on in Gosport.

[pechelman]

I also sized mine to fit comfortably over a hoodie so how you're sizing it to fit snug is probably spot on. Also congrats on the weight/booze @Oaktavia!

[Oaktavia]

@pechelman I appreciate your insight, it helps! And thanks, I never thought I would do this but here we are. Turns out I look better in my clothes when my body looks better, who would've thunk?

[seawolf]

@Oaktavia Fuck yeah! Nice work.

[Oaktavia]

@seawolf yeah dude! I really love the stitching on this one too and how the red W will pop when it fades. One of my buddies @olblue has a Flat Head jacket which I think is 12oz and I love how it drapes (seen in person of course) compared to a heavy jacket. I could go on, in fact I just typed out and deleted a long paragraph. I'm really stoked on all IH so I know this one will too.
