@Giles
would be awesome too
always wanted a Type 1 , but somehow I never found the right one. Type 1 in 21oz would be an absolute sensation 🥳

@Daniel-San That is awesome!!!

@Axel-HH
now for the 409

Hi @Daniel-San ,
I am on the verge to buy my first type II but hesitating between this one and the cotton/linen blend issued for SS 26.
I am looking for something less stubborn than the classic heavyweight (409 ib, lefty etc) so it seems this one is heavy with good fade potential yet comfy?
Would love to see pictures
Thanks!

@Daniel-San Yes! New week, new project

[Daniel San]

@tvaillant75
this one is definitely not comparable with a lefty . From that point it’s comfortable yes , but of course it’s still pretty stiff as it’s brand new.
Maybe that’s a question for @SamD who is wearing it for almost a year ? now . And I guess he can answer the question about comparing it to the linen cotton version better .
I can highly recommend it for sure

@Daniel-San thanks for the reply. I believe we have similar measurements as I've seen for some Y2 jacket, did you go with XL?

[Daniel San]

@tvaillant75
no I took L as I don’t want to wear thicker sweaters under it. For me it’s more a summer, autumn and spring jacket so so only wear a tshirt, henley or thermal longsleeve underneath. But XL would work too I guess.

@tvaillant75 If you’re looking for fade potential, the 19oz is probably the way to go. As @Daniel-San mentioned, it’s not as stiff as the 19oz lefty denim, so it’s easier to break in – comparable to 21oz imo.

The cotton/linen, on the other hand, is a far less structured denim. Definitely looser, slouchier and more breathable, but I wouldn’t expect it to fade with as much contrast as the 19oz. Hope that helps.

@Daniel-San looking good!

I saw a faded IH type II jacket online and it looked amazing, but it appeared darker and very stiff. Was this jacket ever available in 19oz left hand twill? If so, what’s the #? Thank you!

[Giles]

I suggest that you search for Type II in Jackets. That is probably what someone else will have to do to answer your question......

@Biecher Type II search

Oh okay I’m surprised there have been so many variants. I will have a look, thank you!
