IHJ-147-BRN - 9oz Canvas Type III Jacket - Brown
-
@Chaintitch will you be picking this one up?
-
It's been on my S/S Want list, but I may be stuck between sizes on this one, on account of the wider body... The cut on the indigo/black 14oz Type III is indeed the gold standard.
-
Haraki knew what he was doing with this one ... Fit is amazing. XL for reference.
-
What are your impressions of the fabric/weight?

Thank you, sir…I believe this is a seriously underrated piece. The fabric with the red stitching is absolutely killer—I can’t wait to see how it ages and develops character. It should fade pretty quickly, right? Just a heads-up, the color is slightly darker in person than in photos. I’d definitely recommend it if you don’t mind the slightly shorter body length.
-
Those are washed and the product photos of both colors show pretty significant initial fading, so I'd bet these are fast faders. It doesn't feel too light? I don't think I've owned a cotton jacket that weighs less than 12oz.

@Chaintitch Wore the black one today - yes its light but was great in the sun today.
-
@Chaintitch Exactly, It does have a lightweight feel, which is what I was aiming for with the spring-summer season. To give you an idea, it’s similar to something like a waxed Filson cloth—cold to the touch and super high-quality, man.

@Chaintitch You won’t be disappointed—enjoy

Finally found a brown one for my type III collection (ahem
), turned out to be this beauty. It is quite short in the body (despite being 'modified') but I think it works with a tee.(x-post with WAYWT)
edit: and the fabric is awesome, of course. light and smooth, but very solid

@endo looking sleek. Had this one on, but decided that one brown Type3 is enough, since I own the 17 oz duck
