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…

Thanks Sean.  But my answer above remains accurate:

"Our 21oz is way softer than any other denim we make…"

[superfuzz]

I'm going to wear this jacket until it gets soft. I don't care what it takes!

[Finn666]

thanks for getting back at me G.! R

[tatmantall]

email sent, if the sleeves work, this maybe my next IH purhcase…

@Finn666:

thanks for getting back at me G.! R

I had that sexih07iii, the denim on that was seriously no joke.  Probably the gnarliest denim I've felt before (I don't have a lot of experience though), and even the 526j-od is noticeably more comfortable.  I'd bet the reg 526 would suit you well in the comfort department.

[Finn666]

^ best would be a modified 21oz denim type III (od or not)…

[superfuzz]

Tatman, did you get one of these? I think the measurements would work well for you. I've been wearing mine a lot. Lots of people keep asking me where I got it.

[jock1624]

Giles , you are wearing a large in the photos - can you wear a 72 / 86 or other comparable
heavy flannel underneath easily ? Not sure if the L or XL is best for me .

Arigato gozaimashita/merci/thanks/ta

[Giles]

No I'd have to size up to XL to do that…..

[tatmantall]

A long time dream just came true, just purchased a lefty trucker that, from the measurements g gave me appears to be a perfect fit. I can't wait. Have been waiting so long for an IH type III
