IH-526Lod - 19oz Left-Hand Twill Selvedge Denim Type III - Indigo Overdyed Black

@jpvisual the SBG denim will fade to grey, eventually, but it will take a long, long time. These are jeans that are really well worn, still black, but lots of grey. Would take a hell of a lot of wear to do the same to a jacket.

@Alex thanks! The photos are helpful. Is the SBG listed on your site right now the old version and cut or the new slimmer updated cut?

@jpvisual here's mine today, after two years of casual wear and three washes.
I think the picture captures an accurate representation of its current colour.

@T4920 thanks for posting this photo! Your jacket looks great! I really dig that 19oz left hand twill fabric. I would have to say after some good wear this jacket certainly looks more blue. Nothing wrong with that, but I'm wanting a straight up black denim jacket. I would say if Iron Heart makes a straight up black (no OD) type 3 in 19oz left hand twill, that would be the black denim jacket to rule them all.

@T4920 looks awesome man!! That's the one I'm after; just need patience I guess. Hopefully this spring I'll finally be able to join the ever elusive "Iron Heart Lefty" club!!
-
@Nostradamion cheers man! As much as I also want to regular indigo version, I'm aiming to wear this one for a decade and really break it in before starting over with a new one.
I know the jacket is built for the challenge, but I'm not sure my discipline is...
-
@T4920 This one is really developing fantastically. Really love the current colour tone

@Luijim78 thanks. Yeah pretty much decided on that. I plan to live in that one for a year before I get a second. We'll see how that goes

@tody Around March if you're wondering
Hey @AdamJ are these still on track for a restock sometime in March?

I sold my 19 oz Lefty last year due to being so uncomfortable. I got the sizing correct, but it was just miserable to wear. Mind you, I own about 5 or 6 IH type 3s with different weights/fabrics, but I just couldn't get past the rigidness of that material. Knowing that the OD process softens the material quite a bit, how much "softer" and pliable is this piece compared to the standard Lefty? For reference, my favorite type 3 is the 21oz Indigo, which is a fantastic piece.
To add: I'm wearing my 21oz 777-ODs currently and they have been great this week, so I am familiar with the OD softness, just unsure if that softness translates over to the Lefty.

@Nostradamion Has slid back to April now
@AdamJ Bummer. Thanks for letting me know.

@VegaS10 Adding to what @Luijim78 said, it's very wearable. I was pleasantly surprised the first time putting it on. I don't have the Indigo Lefty to compare.. but it's more robust than the 526-SBG.
It might be my favorite IH piece if I had to choose. I also have the 777-21od, and it doesn't feel even close to this jacket. There is just something about wearing the jacket that feels and looks so badass.
