@Oaktavia has it gotten any softer? asked this a while back and you said no, but wondering if anything has changed since then. mine has one wash and much less wear than yours, but is still very stiff

Eh, I mean sure it is less stiff but I wouldn't really call it soft per se...soft in the sense that it has broken in well for a heavyweight jacket. I think soft denim is more like overdyed stuff.

Hi guys, here is the progress on mine. around 60-70 wears and washed 2 times. Really digging this jacket and I am glad the 409 will make a return so I can start the process over further down the line.
First time sharing pictures, so still on the learning curve
Will keep sharing as it progresses.

@Oaktavia thanks man, have to say your progress has kept me motivated. You really are one of IH's best rep

@Oaktavia looking spectacular my man. I gotta get mine back out while it’s still a little cool in the mornings.
-
Looks about time for a pop of indigo. Finally seeing some transformation.
-
@RJScheuerle hell yeah man, looking great so far
-
Good lord those fades be popping @Oaktavia ! Good work as usual
-
@RoxRocks86 heck yeah I really love the colors with this one they are like a warm blue.
-
So hard to get the colors right on the 140 in photos for me.
-
Very nice, I recognize the gradual blue fading in the combs. still no washes right
-
@tvaillant75 one wash so far

So now after owning both the lefty 19 oz and this guy, I have to say I think this one is more uncomfortable than the infamous lefty. I find the arms & body to be slimmer paired with a pretty stiff denim. I am prob ~20ish wears in mine. Low wear count for sure. I honestly don’t reach for it as much bc it’s still pretty uncomfortable - perhaps tho I got a size too small. 38 (medium) in both. It has a nice slim, cropped vintage look. The lefty fits more typical modern denim jacket.
Love em both. Hope I can continue to break it in more to get @Oaktavia level fades. Damn that thing is a beaut.
