IH-526PJ - 21oz Selvedge Denim Modified Type III Jacket - Indigo

[Biecher]

Does the sleeve length shorten with wear on this jacket due to creases? if so, did anybody care to measure it? Thank you!

[goosehd]

@Biecher The amount a sleeve will shorten due to creases will be different based upon each wearer. There will be no standard amount of shortening.

[Biecher]

@goosehd yes, sure depends heavily on the arm circumference I guess. But talking about the fabric, does it hold the creases or is it too soft?
Ideally my sleeves could be 2cm shorter to my taste, but it’s very similar to many pictures here in the thread. Almost 1/3 of my hands are covered. Size L would fit perfect on the sleeve (new, but maybe with creases too short), but it’s tight on the chest. Open it would work, with a t shirt only it would also work, but the shop recommended me a XL to layer something and have some room for future cake.

I’ll put some pictures here, otherwise it doesn’t make much sense I guess. Don’t mind the chaos, I was right between doing laundry and ordering parts for a foldable bicycle

Note, jacket was buttoned partly on most pics except for the last one. I also folded up the sleeves on some pictures to consider some shortening due to creases.

Hey guys,
First time poster here. Just bought the jacket and wanted a final check with the pro's before I start using it.

Overall it feels great. Just worried about the sleeves as my arms are quite long.

Thoughts?

@yoojimbo couldn't ask for a better fit. Wear the shit out of it

@yoojimbo looks great to me too!

So yesterday I sprayed the arms to set the creases. It definitely shortened the sleeves.


But they must have settled some overnight. I think they’re still a bit shorter than before.

In any case, this has become my favourite jacket. So bloody comfortable and just feels awesome!

@yoojimbo The sleeves look absolutely perfect!

[seawolf]

@Chibs Looking great!

@yoojimbo There's always the option of having a jacket tailor made to your measurements, however it might turn out not fitting as well as this one.

@seawolf Thanks for collar ironing tip, got one to finally sit right after being annoyed by it for far too long.

[seawolf]

@ZackB nice work, fellow Zach B!

Had a chance to try this jacket at a local shop. Kinda fits exactly the way I wanted it so I left with it in hand.

What do you think, gents?

[seawolf]

@stitchdown-shell Couldn't be more perfect.

[stitchdown.shell]

@seawolf Thank you! Always nice to hear reassurance.

@Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot hahahahha. Thanks, pal. I got a compliment from the sales girl on this amazing vest when I paid for the jacket. I was quite pleased with that.
