IH-526L - 19oz Left-Hand Twill Selvedge Denim Type III - Indigo

@twin and what jeans did you wear on that pic?
-
Xmas present from the wifey(won’t get till Xmas and going start wearing for redline rally). Love my lefty OD so much had run it back for the indigo one in large. SF self edge Black Friday sale. I didn’t get pic in the medium today but 3rd pic is from back in NY SE this August wearing a medium. I Was debating sizes for while but Sam’s video helped a lot, and the crew at self edge. Def think the large is way to go for sure. Only posting for extra advice, have 30 days to swap it out, and obvs can’t soak. Medium still fit little big but with shrinkage would be cutting it close, wanted rock it more just tee shirt vibe. Aleast with large I’ll be able extra hot soak and should end up fitting just right. Pretty much large in most all my IH -
@meatmarketdenim1 Merry Christmas, man! What with the anticipated shrinkage, I agree the L is the right choice. Going to look great!

Agreed my dude. Best possible choice you could have made for the RR. These Lefty jackets fade so beautifully. Nothing beats a Lefty.
-
@meatmarketdenim1 looks good! Gonna be a nice ride in the Rally, have fun! Nothing like a lefty indeed!

@Lowlander @Oaktavia @Larkens
Thank you guys for the reassurance, I got stuck in a mental battle on sizing even though kinda knew. I really appreciate the advice. So stoked rock this beast of a jacket for RR, and rep Iron heart. Can’t wait get this, soaked, and eventually broken in. It’s Going under our tree today, maybe wrap it up so its standing up next to the tree JK. Me and my wife decided for our big gift to each other, would take out the guess would and just say what we wanted. I got hers all sorted too, and couple ideas for smaller surprise gifts. Tiss thr season -

Dooo it!
Haha...my wife and I do the same thing, ask what each other wants. I always go for something IH. This year it is a pair of 21oz white 634.
-
Oh nice homie, def makes things little easier taking out the guess work lol. Also white 634s are going look so steezy
-
Looking for advice on this 3XL pre soak fit. What do you think? Wearing it over a 12 oz 33 in the picture, my plan was to be able to wear it with a hoody or shirt but also over a tee. If it's a bit oversized I don't mind, but sleeves and shoulders are def very big right now.
-
Yeah may be little long in the sleeves, post soak/ wash. If have option to return for size down may be good call if looking for just a hoodie or tee shirt underneath. but I think @worn2fade had his little bigger than planned. But went with a double soak and maybe a wash on his to get it fitting really nice.
-
@tody @meatmarketdenim1 thanks guys, I think there's a good chance that I won't be happy with the fit long term so maybe better to size down next run
-
@FlavourFade I just DM’d you on IG some pics for you to see how mine started. I also have a few reels going into details on my gram too.
Personally brother, if you’re not layering a thick hoodie and/or UHF under this I would definitely size down. I bought mine a size up from my normal IH size because I wanted to layer a IHSH-33-IND under it ironically enough, there was still a great amount of space even with a T shirt and the western on.
I definitely should’ve went true to size. Especially because this run of lefties came out a little longer in the torso which I’m not the fondest of.
-
Mine fit basically the same as yours in its raw state and after a soak and two washes I can fit my IHSH-33-IND & my 18oz OD CPO under it and still be comfortable. So like I said, unless you want heavy layering.. size down my friend!

To make it easier for folks to find in the future:
Here’s my comparison from raw to soaked to soaked + washed
I have a lot more helpful pics on IG @worn2fade
-
I usually take L in IH tops. I went for a M from the latest lefty batch and there’s still plenty room for layering with a shirt or hoodie, should I want to. It works great with just a T-shirt too.
