@robinvonbatman no idea, sorry. When we next get a production schedule update we'll have a clearer picture

As a denim jacket nerd, and SBG fanboy, checking this thread for updates has become a bitter-sweet hobby of mine. Winter is cold here in Virginia. Hope I survive long enough to see the day of release. 🥶

Too cold for me to wear the sample at the moment. When it starts warming up, I'll share some fits!

@AdamJ Did It get some wear between the last post in September and now? Been enjoying this thread since 2023 and just like @HelluvaFella looking forward to the release and any updates in-between

[AdamJ]

[Larkens]

Who needs an expensive macro lens when you have Adam C's linen tester

[Larkens]

@AdamJ thanks! Looking good! And nice touch with the linen tester! No need for a macro lens at all. Thanks for the update!

[HelluvaFella]

@AdamJ the tease is real. 🥲

Any news on this front? The upcoming restock of the black/black is just around the corner and I’m not sure if I should pull the trigger on this.

I'd imagine it's not part of that SBG jeans drop, but I'd be so stoked to be proven wrong.

@robinvonbatman Nothing at the moment on the schedule I'm afraid dude, we will do it again just not sure when.

Hey @AdamJ,

Really great shots! Really love how the grey is showing on the sleeves in your most recent pics.

I've been determined to find a jacket in the SBG in my size for some time now, and recently just purchased a Type III from The Shop in Vancouver in an XL (en route as we speak). I struggle a little bit with sizing for IH jackets/shirts because I find that I sit right on the cusp between L & XL.

I noticed that the modified Type III I grabbed seems to differ from other modified Type III. This was how this was described on the Shop's website:

the fit of this jacket differs from other modified Type IIIs in our lineup. Originally, this run was intended to debut a brand-new model based on the same cut as our signature IH-526PJ. However, due to a production mix-up, we inadvertently re-ran our original SBG Type III jacket from 2016

Is the OG jacket from your photos from the same run as described above, and if so, how do you find the fit?

Wondering if an XL from this run will be too roomy in the body/arms for my 108 cm chest/187 cm tall frame (compared to the newer modified Type III fits).

[AdamJ]

@spacedans hey man, thanks a lot!

It's a little confusing as you mention, we intended this jacket to be produced, same as the IH-526PJ but due to a mixup, the original was run.

The sample jacket I have and is pictured in this thread, has not been produced at all yet (it's in production at the moment).

Sizing wise, I find it fits pretty similar to my other Type III which is the IH-526Lod. Hard to tell at this point though regarding sizing, will be a lot easier once the production run arrives and we can measure. It's not uncommon for things to be tweaked from the sample for example.

I tend to err on the bigger side if I am between sizes, can always cuff a sleeve or wear and extra layer to make a bigger size work where as if it's too small, options are limited.

I'll get some fresh pics of it up soon!
