IH-9527J - 21oz Denim Rider's Jacket - Superblack Non-Fade

I cant get away with blaming it on my old age yet–or , can I ?

Does anyone have pictures of a well worn jacket? Interested to see how the non fade denim looks with age.

@Alex said in IH-9526PJ - 21oz Non-Fade Denim Modified Type III - Superblack:
This denim may be discontinued. We are having big issues with the production, and I am in talks with Japan about it currently. It would be a major bummer, but - we are talking specifically about the Superblack Non-Selvedge.
Sadly this is now confirmed. The mill was forced to move the production to a different type of loom, and it created visual bumps in the fabric as a result. Haraki is not willing, rightly so, to make what he considered B/C grade denim, so we have come to the agreement to discontinue making this denim. There are still some production runs in the works, and we will hopefully still release those as planned with the A grade denim, but if that changes we will let you know.
Moving forward, as we have done with jeans already, the IH-9526PJ, IH-9527J and IH-9526V will be superseded by the Superblack Selvedege Denim. Accessories will move across too, at some point, but we have more flexibility to make these from B grade denim as we need smaller sections.

Still one of my favourite IH pieces. Had this for over 10 years if memory serves. Pretty sure it was the first IH jacket I bought. A few years ago I had the sleeves shortened, which included preserving the original cuff linings and zips.
Topped off with a IH x GA bell pin.
