IH-526Lod - 19oz Left-Hand Twill Selvedge Denim Type III - Indigo Overdyed Black

@Goz Not going to lie and say it’s a tough choice. Over the t-shirt and definitely the first jacket. Trim and very smart!! Over the hoodie and I would pick the second jacket.
Both look very good on you. The areas I always am looking for are where the shoulder seams line to your shoulder, the chest, and the overall length. Shoulders look good on both jackets, chest is a toss up depending on what you’re wearing underneath (t-shirt vs. hoodie), and length is good on both.
You’ve got the perfect build for the type III and either of them would be a keeper in my opinion.

@goosehd Thank you I definitely appreciate and respect your opinion. You have great style and lnow how clothes should fit properly.

@Goz you can’t go wrong with either one, but I think if it were me the bigger one would get more use. Comfort and versatility. It still looks great with just a tee. Not sloppy or anything.

@sabergirl Thank you I appreciate your advice. The bigger size feels a bit more comfortable especially when layering. Your right I definitely would wear it more. Its funny how just a inch difference in measurements btwn the 2 jackets can change the appearance on how it fits and looks on a person.
-
@Goz I think I'm in the same physical size dilemma as you where I can fit in an XL and L...I went with the 526J-142 in XL but looking for a different variant in L now. Lol

-
@j6550 I feel your pain I'm still second guessing my choice, but I will say this if your other Type 3 is a XL I'd go with size Large with the OD you can use the other jacket when u want to wear a hoodie or thick flannel under it and the OD with t-shirts
-
@Goz I like the way you think

@CosmoSix5 it seems you have both the 14oz OD Type III and the lefty (OD). Any concluding words to help decide between them? Having the indigo lefty I have some level of "crunch PTSD" and ideally want a type III that I can wear indoors all day (in winter), as opposed to wear "as a jacket only"...
-
@Tobi I had both too and would say the 142 is more what you are looking for. The lefty od is softer than the indigo one but still hefty and I would not be comfortable with it all day inside. The 14oz one does fade slower and with less contrast but drapes faster

The 14oz is easily your choice. It's really nice and soft. Very comfortable for a denim jacket. I got the lefty to stand up on its own last night. Albeit only shortly but I've worn it 5 or 6 times already
. If you're a 46 head to the buying and selling page
There is a little more room in the sleeve on the 14oz also. My watch and bracelets have a hard time under the lefty, not so noticeable with 14oz -
Thanks @FlavourFade and @CosmoSix5! In the meantime I have successfully talked myself into snapping up the last OD lefty xxxl on IH UK. I have the indigo version.. and if the OD is even only a bit softer I can live with that
Also reconsidered my use case and would likely not wear a Type III indoors at work all day anyway. Now I just need to resist the urge to buy the purple UHF later today.. -

@Tobi I'm 100% confident purple would look great with an OD type 3
Don't I know it! I have, however, discovered that I already own 6 UHF, and also sizing is not working out... so easy to pass...
-
@Tobi I'm happy my advice meant nothing to you
It was the same advice that meant nothing to me either..... -
@CosmoSix5 no offence
.. appreciate the response!
