      Mine has definitely gotten softer after a couple months of wear but still has a ways to go.

      superfuzz, when you say softer how much is there a way to explain it? For me right now its unbearable, cannot imagine wearing it and going out 😞 definitely its a super slim cut and stiff as iron 🙂

        The 526L, after a few hard weeks of wear softens up. Enjoy the jacket

        Will it get normal? I soaked it, its stiff like crazy 😞 thanks

          Yeah heavyweight denim is like that. Your jacket will be fine!

              I've worn mine a lot in the 4 months or so that I've had it and it's still stiff but it has softened up a bunch. I'm looking forward to fall so I can start wearing it again and keep breaking it in.

                  It was so stiff at first that I looked funny wearing it. Like I was wearing cardboard or denim armor.

                      It will get softer mate, mine is only a week old but already starting to loosen up. Give it  heaps!

                          How snug? Is it snug with just a tshirt?

                              I don't know if that will get much better. It will probably stretch some but a jacket won't stretch like jeans. Can you post a pic of yourself wearing it?

                                      Just got my IH-526L and all I can say is WHOA this thing is tough and stiff. I feel like I'm wearing denim armor! The fit is totally perfect. I'm going to try to really wear this every day till summer, see how much evo I can get out of it. Here are some crappy and probably unhelpful fit pics. I went with my usual size S. I'm also wearing the 666Ds I got as well. Sized up one to 29. Just dropped them off to get hemmed. Thanks for making this jacket happen, G!

                                      Looks Cool!!!
