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

[jock1624]

This jacket is on my wish list , been waiting for one with in and outside pockets. Hope it is not a one off.and becomes
a staple item .

Giles, are these available from IH Japan ?

I'm in the 47% category of those who don't double denim up ( jeans bottom , denim shirt/jacket top )
. Made that percentage number up ha ha

[Giles]

Not available in Japan…

[jock1624]

Thanks Giles . Will there be more made after your cleaned out , next year or so…...?

Cheers

[Giles]

If I get cleaned out quick enough, I'll rerun…..

[jock1624]

Aha …..bit of incentive sales psychology there .....well played .....hope you.get cleaned out.

[Giles]

A bit of truth…..

I'm torn between a size small in this and a medium in the regular 526J! I had the 526J in size small, but the length and sleeves were a little too short. I'm sure the small in this one would fix that issue, but I don't think I'll like the vertical fading of the lefty denim over time (and I really like the regular 21 oz). Am I overreacting? Do you guys think the denim appearance and qualities are pretty similar overall?

@margzz:

Only you can answer that

@margzz:

Only time will tell

Mr Padmore, need I remind you that you are under oath.

Now, please answer the question, is the plaintiff overreacting?

[Giles]

Sorry m'lud.

Sweet write up!  I saw this earlier.

I love this jacket. This is pretty much what I've worn every day since I got it (with a parka over it since it's been so damn cold lately).

[superfuzz]

Haha you're right, Mad!

Hey Super settled on a 3x and wore mine to the pub this weekend….what a jacket!

[Finn666]

is this or the "standard" 526 softer…looking for a type III which I am able to wear, not which is wearing me! :-\

[Chris]

Gotta be the regular one.  This denim is way harder than the 21 oz stuff.

[Finn666]

almost thought so chris, thanks!
then i guess the 19oz SE is using for their modified typeIII od model is also harder than the 21oz denim, no?

[Giles]

What 19oz that SE is using?

But let's just put it this way, our 21oz is way softer than any other denim we make…
