IHJ-123-OD - 14oz Broken Twill Selvedge Denim Work Jacket - Indigo Overdyed Black
-
@SKT this is probably the best fitting jacket I’ve ever had! It’s nice and comfortable with just a t-shirt and can layer a waffle thermal and UHF without having movement restrictions. My Wabash chore coat slips over it easily when riding the bike and in cooler temps. The sleeves are the perfect length and the openings are spot on. I really like the 2 way zipper especially when seated. The material weight is ideal for layering either under or over. After wearing it almost daily for the past 4 months, the evolution is coming along nicely with blues starting to pop in the high wear areas. Would highly recommend this to anyone interested!

Had to upload a pic after my second wash. Had for about ten months. Love this SBR OD. Was sad to see it go outlet.

@Alex you guys should its a hawt piece

@Mizmazzle Yeah, that's what I was thinking. I love this pattern. It's a great balance between form and function. Has a vintage aesthetic but it's not limited by it.
Just a thought. I think this pattern would look great with tack buttons or snaps instead of a zipper. Probably the snaps but I just love tack buttons.
It would kind of channel the CPO look but with a work jacket pattern instead of the western. Although, this pattern does have a shorter length so maybe tacks would work better.
Either way I hope you guys keep this pattern alive.

@Denman-John what a masterpiece. Stoked to see this one getting the love from you it deserves!!
-
@Denman-John love this thing man. Great work
-
@Mizmazzle thank you for asking haha
-
@Mizmazzle I certainly hope so
-
To make it worse for you all, this is my favorite jacket I have and the fit is impeccable. It's too good to not make again.
-
@Denman-John running out of superlatives so I’ll echo what the others have said…amazing

@Mizmazzle @ZackB @Mister_Brue @SKT Thank you gentlemen for the kind words. I do think “masterpiece” might be pushing it a little, because I’m nowhere near done with it. Let’s see where we are in 5 years. I do love this jacket. I’ve been looking at the arm creases for a long time and wondered if they will ever give in, that I failed to notice that it was popping everywhere else. It caught my eye and I took a few pictures. When I see and wear it on a regular basis, I don’t really notice much change day to day. Maybe because it’s been under my chore coat and out of sight while wearing? Then I see a picture from 6-9 months ago and smile to see where it is now. It’s only been washed once and is probably due for another one soon. That’s where I usually notice the changes. In regards to fades, this one definitely crept up on me.

I sat down with @alex during the week to discuss possible new products. I suggested that we do our take on the Wrangler 24MZ:
He pointed out that this work jacket design is basically it.
My idea was scrubbed
