IH-526Lod - 19oz Left-Hand Twill Selvedge Denim Type III - Indigo Overdyed Black
-
@Indigo-Alchemist Since the lefty is over dyed, there is no more shrink to be had. If it were me, I would say yes as it should fit comparably to the Olive Drab green type III. If you are happy with that fit, then you should be good.
-
@Indigo-Alchemist fully agree with @goosehd with the addition that I would measure the type 3 you have to get accurate measurements for a direct comparison
-
Thanks @goosehd & @Tago-Mago, will double-check measurements on my olive type III.
That one sits very tight on me, I can wear it on top of a t-shirt and fit the 14oz western underneath but closing it is then possible but not the best option in terms of fit and comfort. -
@Indigo-Alchemist Watch this video: https://forum.ironheart.co.uk//post/5664
Write down your measurements from your olive jacket and send an email to the crew: shop@ironheart.co.uk and see what they have that is close to or bigger than what you currently have. It sounds like you will need a slightly larger jacket to accommodate layering.
The crew is really f’n good at what they do and will be able to help you!!!

I‘m stupid the olive type III is a size 42, that should be XL then. Considering I have some room in the N1, I think I can go with XL in the 19oz lefty as well. Now I just need to decide between the 19oz or the 16oz slubby, that looks also awesome. Any advices on deciding between those two are welcome (I know owning both is the ultimate goal though
🫣).
Thanks for your help guys

You guys think I could rock the lefty in a Large?
Enclosed I compared some other products I own as well in a Large. I want to avoid the jacket to look to boxy but would like the room for a western or UHF to be worn with a T-shirt underneath.
Thanks for your advice!

@Indigo-Alchemist 14oz western is super thick. It's basically wearing 2 denim jackets. 12oz shirt in my opinion is perfect under a type iii.
-
@coldsteel50 if your size is still available, grab one!! It will break in.
-
@crollee i took delivery - it looks amazing and fits perfectly.. and bizarrely it doesn’t feel as stiff as the original I ordered - so all good!

Went ahead and got XXXL. First I thought that I might have been better off with SP-Large but after almost 2 weeks of non-stop wear It has stopped squeaking and maybe stretched a centimeter or two in some places. Will try to get as much wear before it gets too cold here because this is definitely a ''Wear with a t-shirt'' jacket for me.
Now very happy with my purchase and It's already a favorite after the initial quite brutal break in period.
Happy owner of two IH type 3s now, this and a SP-Large Superblack ( Both serve a purpose ). -
The only bad thing about this jacket is that .. I don't want anything else. I keep moving on from adding things because I always grab this and I know that will continue. I have a 526PJ that just hangs around the closet...
