IH-526L - 19oz Unsanforised Left Hand Twill Trucker. The Lefty Trucker

[Giles]

There is going to be a 6 week delay on this.  After we had made all the jeans out of the denim, we only had enough for 40 jackets.  Haraki offered to make the 40 and then make the balance when the next run of the denim is complete (6 or so weeks).  I decided not to put him through the hassle and elected to wait until the denim is complete and do a full run.

Sorry guys…

Earlier in this thread production was estimated for 'mid-October-ish'. Going six weeks on top of that…early December?

[Giles]

My best best guess at the moment, sorry.  New denims cause a lot of unforseen problems and we used more than we thought we would on the new jeans.  Some of the new jeans we have had to sample 4 times….....

[CLJ]

Not upset about the delay. I will always prefer wait for quality than rush a product just to have it. Good to have a timeframe for budgeting.

[Finn666]

thank god that there's a delay

i mean come on guys. think about it this way:
all the heavy and ultra heavy flannels, the hoddies and sweaters and what not are dropping around the same time the Leftie Trucker WOULD…now you don't have to decide on what to get/pass on. save up and cop it all

[mclaincausey]

Finn chimes in as the voice of reason, and I start looking for icicles in Hell

[Bluegrass]

"Save up"?  Easier said than done.  just scored an IH shirt, Self Edge is 12% off this weekend.  Jonesing for boots.  Always something… But I like the concept  :).

[tatmantall]

That 12% sale has me considering bad things…. Like purchasing that himel before I truly should.

[Bluegrass]

It's hard to pass up - 12% of a big number is enough to warrant serious thought.  I'm considering grabbing some 25oz Devils which I've been thinking about a long time. Or maybe another shirt.  :-\

[tatmantall]

Nice. Damn sales…

Show us some pix of that Kensington ;))) very nice jacket man you will be a very happy man…together with that Trucker coming soon

[tatmantall]

Haha…. Well see... Haven't pulled the trigger just yet... Sitting on it until tomorrow for now... Trying to be fiscally responsible. But yes... The Kensington and the lefty trucker should have me set for awhile

IH-526L - 19oz Unsanforised Left Hand Twill Trucker.  The Lefty Trucker

First sample has been made, we need to run a second sample.  This was the first garment we made with the new 19oz raw LHT denim and it behaved differently than we expected.  A second sample is now being run.  The dimensions of this XL are more akin to an IH-526J - nothing wrong with that per se, but I wanted longer body and longer arms on the Lefty.  We'll get there…

Will be available in XS-XXXL

Giles, if your sample is l or XL, and you happen not to know what to do with them, send them my way. I will pay you money or reggae CD's for them!

[Giles]

Not sure what size it is, but it fits me perfectly…..And thus will remain here I am afraid.....

[grandmasterben]

@Arabit:

God damn this fit is money. Exactly how a type 3 should be worn imo. I can't wait to see the evo on this! I already have a dope type 3 but damn this makes me think….

[tatmantall]

this is my most anticipated IH release ever…. past present or future (probably)

[grandmasterben]

If I was in the market for a type 3 this would probably be an instacop. I hope the sizing works out for you man!

[tatmantall]

Wish this would get here yesterday…. In desperate need of a new type III... Been hard holding off so long...

[superfuzz]

Hey G, what's the ETA on this one, mid-Oct? I already filled out the form, just jonesing for it!

[Giles]

Early/Mid December….
