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

@Oaktavia Let's geek out together!
Well if you insist! I was thinking when deciding about the SBG jacket, will I like the way the jacket eventually fades to grey? I am not sure if I would be as pleased with the results as I would be with indigo/black. I'm just not sure I am into a fully black/grey jacket as I once was. I think I was more after the allure of a new jacket coming out.
I had to ask myself if I just hopped on this jacket because it was available today and the SBG isn't yet. But the more I thought about it, the more it made sense to grab this one regardless. I already have two heavyweight jackets, the 19oz Lefty and the 19oz 140IG. One midweight 16oz Slubby T2. So adding at lighter weight jacket will diversify my collection. Plus, I was saying before, I was going to size with room to layer with the SBG, but I already have done that with my 19oz Lefty. I don't have a slim fitting T3 yet and I think I would prefer it to be 14oz or a similar weight. So...there are my thoughts.

@Oaktavia I hear ya, man, and another congrats on ditching the sauce. It’s a great way to trim up — I lost 40 pounds in just a couple months when I quit.
-
@popvulture hell yeah that's awesome, I lost 35-40 depending on the day. I look more like I did in my early 20s. I wouldn't be able to wear a slim fitting T3 before I quit and be happy with how my stomach looked.

@Mizmazzle I was surprised how easy it was. On 6 months for me.

@Oaktavia Nicely done. I think we all justify our purchases to ourselves in a similar manner. Does anyone disagree? And if I'm totally wrong, it's nice to see someone else thinking the way I do.
@Mister_Brue Did I? lol.

@Mister_Brue Glad to hear it. I just didn't want to put anyone in a box that they don't want to be in. Glad I'm not the only crazy person here.

@Mizmazzle Same, bro. I still have room in my closet for a couple more, I think.
