IH-526J-142OD - 14oz Selvedge Denim Modified Type III - Overdyed Indigo
-
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.....

@CosmoSix5 the denim is a beauty isn’t it, really glad you love it and nailed the fit!
-
@CosmoSix5 Best choice you could make! This jacket is perfectly weighted and becomes super soft within no time. Also the different shades of black and blue depending on the light are amazing. Well, the fading is tough as nails but if you commit to it it looks perfectly with a bit of wear!

Just want to confirm before I buy one of these, is the recentish restock still sulphur dyed? Or was it switched to the new eco-friendly dye? Since it was a restock, I figure there’s a chance the switch could have been made without product pages being updated. I’m keen on getting the sulphur patina one last time if it is the old method.
(I have a couple of the new method OD now and they are great, but I had one of the old OD that I had to give up and I’d love to have an example of that too.)

@Freeman Yeah, I only wanted to confirm because other OD products earlier this year (like the 1955S OD) made the switch to the non-sulphur process. The 14oz restock seems to have been right around the switch, and I could see a world where a change was made without anyone remembering the product pages needed to be updated. Especially if it's the guys in Japan doing the OD (not sure where it happens) because they've definitely been known to switch things up without telling the UK guys.
