IHSH-409-IB - 19oz Selvedge Denim CPO Shirt - Indigo/Black

[FlavourFade]

To everyone who has the 409 and something in the 14 oz ib denim, what's your preference? I am in the market for a 526j-142ib and I know it's jacket vs cpo but for me it's more about the fabric. I know the 409 is a legend and won't be back probably but these facts aside, would you choose the 409 over your 295ib or ib type III?

@FlavourFade
Have 409 and 296ib

409 faded don’t wear it anymore gets soft in the end
296ib is more rigged

[FlavourFade]

@Kasi which one do you like more Mo?

[Kasi]

@FlavourFade

Out of them 2 295ib

My favorite CPO is 178 Overdyed more tuff

[Oaktavia]

@FlavourFade I wouldn't trade the 409 for anything it beats the 295ib any day.

[Mizmazzle]

@FlavourFade both are killer, dude. But the 409 is thick, heavy, and wonderful. If I could only have one it would be the 409. But, that 295ib is killer too haha. One is a shirt, the other a CPO (shacket)...but that thickness of the 409 is just so money for a CPO.

[FlavourFade]

@Mizmazzle @Kasi you guys are making it worse hahaha but I think the smarter move is to go for the one that's gonna be extinct the moment it drops...

Stop hyping that shirt. People on the internet might read it!

[dirtyframer]

Definitely need this one in my wardrobe!!

[gazza61]

I wear the 295 more than the 409.and anything 14oz or over is really a shacket most type 2 and 3 usually start around 14oz.

Practicing restraint with this one. I can wait a year for 189-IND. Maybe.

[Tobi]

The 409 is very heavy and crunchy. Fades like crazy but for me not very high in the comfort department (and therefore doesn't get much wear) .. to be fair: it's also abit tight for me now.. so that contributes..

[Larkens]

@Tobi after a while mine got softer. Heavy. But softer

[kojimastreets]

Can't wait for this thing to drop!

[Daniel San]

this time I won’t pass , absolutely must have

[Northman]

Reading the comments and browsing the thread does not help when trying to practice restraint.

[Larkens]

@Northman Ha! I can imagine! Best to avoid it or embrace that resistance is probably futile

[phoenixinflight]

Considering this as my first IH CPO! I love the Indigo/Black combination and the pictures of this fabric's fading journey are awesome. I do want to see what CPO's might be released for the FW26 season though. Would it be safe to say FW26 preview will be live before this drops at this stage? Also love the yokeless CPO's so I may hold out for the 21oz Untucked to further test my patience

[Ikeaparty]

@phoenixinflight I think it's likely this will drop before FW26 preview based on updates in above comments

[Larkens]

@Ikeaparty Well... I see that the Fall/Winter '25 Collection Reveal was on 12th of June 2025, And Alex mentioned June for the 409, my guess is that @phoenixinflight hopes the preview is before the release of the 409

I'd go for the 409 either way, but I might be biased.
