IH-526J-142OD - 14oz Selvedge Denim Modified Type III - Overdyed Indigo
-
I’ve had one of these for a while now. It’s not as light as one might think. The OD process definitely adds some heft. I do love it though.
-
-
I don’t own a 21 oz. Type III. But I do own a 19 oz. type I and the 14 oz OD is heavier and thicker than that one for sure.
-
The 14oz. will feel heavier because of how tightly woven the material is and compounded by overdying compared to many other denims offered from IH. 21oz may be heavier in weight but will have a lighter feel as it’s not as tightly woven as the 14oz.
Hope this makes sense.

@goosehd 100% agree with the above
️ my 14oz OD jeans in this denim are so “dense” I guess would be the word. Hardly any tiny gaps in the weave at all. They absorb heat and sunlight like crazy too, almost burns my hands touching them when I’ve been outside in the sun 
slightly lighter weight for sure but not so sure about summer weight 🥵 -
-
@CosmoSix5 no problem, it is still a wicked denim though regardless of its appetite for eating up the sunshine
loving my 14oz OD jeans, just getting the first hints of blue poking through at 30 ish wears -
How has sizing been in these? I’m getting very mixed signals. Going by IH, Dant, Iron Shop, I would have a smidge of layering room in an XL. Other shops have theirs measured in a way that an XXL may be too tight.
-
Gotta go by the measurements of where you're placing the order. Add order notes to please verify the "your measurements of choice" are at least "x.x" please contact me if there any issues with this. Before shipping. Thanks
Iron Shop Provisions and Dant are both good about communicating with us. -
The only ones that have XL in stock I believe are Self Edge, but I’ve been comparing the measurements all the other vendors have posted. SE seems to have enough in stock that if it’s too small, a swap would be easy enough. I just like to get it right the first time lol. A habit from buying lots of stuff from Japan and not really being able to make returns.

I have an XL. I have never ever had an XL in anything. Ever.

@Richard I think that’s part of what’s messing with my brain. I’ve always been XXL at the smallest with IH sizing.

@CosmoSix5 I am still pondering this one vs the OD lefty. I have the indigo lefty, and despite the softening effect of the OD process I assume the OD lefty is still a completely different beast to the 14oz. The rational choice for comfort and summer wearability would be the 14oz...

Is it the same denim before the OD?
Yes. Basically, we just OD the indigo version of anything overdyed.

You need to check how they measure when trying to compare, you can not assume that you are comparing apples with apples.....
