IH-526J-DD - Double Duck Type III Jacket
-
I have the DD pants. Awesome fabric
-
@sabergirl I plan to give it the proper Filthy treatment, I quite like the terminology there.
It's a beast, for sure.
Stoked to hear this, and I read in older posts it may be attributed to the indigo dying that bulks it up?
-
It fades fairly quickly @Oaktavia.

I also learned this from reading up through this thread. I also have a pair of DD pants they have been on ice. This jacket though, I think will melt any ice to water, it's SHIT HOT!
-
I can imagine. The pants are pretty stiff also specially after a fresh wash. The jacket is probably gnarly
-
@Oaktavia Awesome that you were able to find one! Like new, no less.
This one and the IH-X526J are top on my most wanted list.
(Still hoping for a return of these some day. Personally I think many of the items that weren't great sellers back in the day would do much better now. That said, hard to fault people for going with guaranteed sellers over potential flops

Dang. I did not know such a thing existed. One for the wanted list, just like the 25oz vest...

@tody So many cool pieces from before my time here that keeps popping up.

I am so happy to have one coming my way. It's all thanks to @Raisinoux for the tip off. Like new makes it even better but I would have been happy to have one in any condition. This is an IH fever dream come reality.
I also had no idea about the IH-X526J. I know what forum rabbit home I'm headed down this evening.

@Oaktavia Congrats, such a cool find. Hats off to @Raisinoux
Will be great to follow along as you take it through its paces.
-
@JunkPants part of me wants to hold off wearing it but I don't think I'll be able to
-
@Oaktavia I say go for it!
-
@JunkPants likely...watch this space.
-
@JunkPants +1000
GO FOR IIIIT !!! -
When i saw the post about that jacket for sale in mint condition i knew i had to do something, it couldn't just vanish and land in a random non forum member house. A grail piece deserves a grail home !!!
-
@Raisinoux fortunately, the 526J22OD I have been working on this year has faded faster than expected. So, I feel I have a fair amount of steps towards my goal with that one. It should take the DD a few weeks to reach land in West Virginia anyway which gives me a little more time with the 22OD...thoughts are now properly sorted.

@Raisinoux Good looking out! This one definitely ended up in the perfect place.
