IH-2526J - 17oz Duck Modified Type III - Brown

[mapotofu]

Just ordered the last XL from Division Road. Would usually wear a size L but am I right in that these run on the small side?

So I was mulling over 2XL and 3XL size, and the 3XL is gone now.

My Levi's type III measurements
Shoulders 52-53cm
length 67cm
chest p2p 60cm
waist 56
opening 53
sleeve 66
sleeve opening 13

This one is on a fitting but comfy side for me, I can wear a thick jumper under the jacket.
you think IH-2526J 2XL is doable for me?

I think it's going to be tight, but IMO, tight is good in a Type III

Shit, I missed it. ...

Couldn't resist anyway, had to get one, $USD60 mistake

Yes, it's doable!

thanks @Giles

Here’s mine after about 10 years.. I wore it a lot for the first three or so years and sporadically after that. Still gets a decent bit of action in the warmer months when I can wear it over just a t-shirt (have outgrown it a bit). As I recall I sold my Gibson SG special to fund it, think this was my second ever IH purchase.

@VoodooRay Has it gotten softer or is it still tough?

[VoodooRay]

@cityofdelusion I’d say it has softened up a good bit, as far as I can remember it was stiff as a board when new. It has a pretty smooth hand but is still tough and has some rigidness to it, I’d estimate that it feels like a tightly woven 15oz denim now..

[cityofdelusion]

@VoodooRay Nice! I wonder if (and how) it could ever get as soft as a pair of broken-in 14, 21 or 25oz denims at some point... Not sure I have the patience it takes to find out though, but I admire yours for it

@VoodooRay
This looks so good

[VoodooRay]

@cityofdelusion I wore this pretty much all the time even during winter for the first few years that I had it, (I was a student at the time so this and my 21oz 634s were the only nice clothes that I really had). I'd say it softened up a lot after a year of wear but it really came to life after a wash..

[VoodooRay]

@Zinc2162 Cheers dude.

[cityofdelusion]

@VoodooRay Gotta love and admire the commitment you put in these. It looks beautiful, so it definitely paid off.
