      @DeeDee85 yeah I think you’ve hit on that correctly. Also the environmental impact is much worse with the older method so you get the good feelies with the new method in that regard.

        Cheers. Thanks for that.

        Certainly my 2 year old 14 OZ OD Type 3 has faded nicely with really light Indigo coming through on the arm crease sets in particular. ( likely the older type then).

        Will post photos when next home. In the Alps at the momewnt with my Work.

            There's probably a very expensive way to mitigate the environmental impact while not changing the actual process. I read that Horween leather was going to basically be forced out of business(by changing their famous tanning process) but they got around the government demand by installing their very own water treatment plant. Probably a tough sell for the amount of things Works OD's. Would take a long time to recoup the $1 million+

              Any updates as to the ETA on this piece? Trying to decide if I should wait for this or pull the trigger on the SelfEdge collab next week.
              Thank you ✌️

              Exact same question I was wondering. I have this jacket in the non OD version and I love it. I want an OD version to contrast my jeans a little. The self edge version looks cool but I think id prefer the OG.

              I was also interested in the 21oz type 3 dropping today but I think having that and the 19oz type 3 would be a little redundant.

                    @Johnnyutah247 , get the 21 oz type III.

                    It's an OG classic.

                      If the fit is yours (long and slim) then this is one of IH greatest pieces.

                      You're it.

                        I've got my fingers crossed for this one. If it doesn't work out no biggie though.

                              @AdamJ same thing is probably true for other heavy hitters like the vintage CPO, right?

                                  This was the first type 3 i think i wanted but the timing and available stock didnt work out so I ended up with a 14IB instead, that I love. Then all of the fading pictures of the indigo Lefty made me jump on that during one of the last restocks. Wondering if this will be the time or if maybe I should consider the 21OD instead.

                                  At the expense of asking what has already been answered in one of the many huge threads about this OD fabric, how does it compare in terms of softness? I've got a couple things in the 21OD to compare as well as 25MB and 18OD as well as their regular indigo variants to help with comparisons.

                                  Is it really as simple as 21:21OD :: 18:18OD :: 19L:19LOD?

                                    @pechelman It is much softer and more comfortable than the indigo version, I don't know what to compare it to in fact, it is crispier than the 21OD and the 21MB, it is substantially different even from the 19oz non-Lefty. In two words it has a nice stiffness that allows the folds to be sculpted in an instant but it is not in an armor that can break like its indigo sister.

                                      @Luijim78 nice description. I was between this and the new self edge OD type 3. I think I'm going to hold out for this. The 19oz LHT denim looks really nice when OD.

                                          I think @Luijim78 summed it up nicely. It's still more structured than any 21oz type iii. Is has a nice crispness to it but you can get a soft hand fairly quickly from wears. Get great creasing around the elbows. Mine is shorter than the regular 19L but mine is from an old batch. The regular 19L is days harder and stiffer and alot more stubborn to give and soften up.

                                            One more question from anyone who has both, I'm presuming from the replies that this is true, but will a 19LOD item fold up thicker than either its equivalent garment in the 21/21OD?

                                            For example, if one were to travel with these jackets and stuff it in an overhead bin or try to cram it in a duffle, will the 19L take up the most room of them all? Considering equal amounts of wear.
