IH-526Lod - 19oz Left-Hand Twill Selvedge Denim Type III - Indigo Overdyed Black

[Nostradamion]

Hoping the Iron Heart crew can chime in here: are there any plans to restock this model any time soon? The one I have is great, however I've lost weight and need to size down. Everywhere I've checked is sold out in the size I would need, either an XL or 2XL. Any info is appreciated!!

@Nostradamion last restock was late June. Given the current situation I reckon it will be a while. Tagging @ShopatIronHeart for confirmation

[AdamJ]

@Nostradamion it's on the list of things we want to re-run, but is not in production yet, so will not be soon I'm afraid.

Such is the state of production, you're going to see me saying this a lot I'm afraid.

526J-142ib will be here soon though if you're in need of a Type III...

[Nostradamion]

@AdamJ Thanks for letting me know about the 526J-142ib; I may jump on one of those, but I admittedly had my heart set on a smaller 526LOD as it seems like it will survive the apocalypse. I can "make" mine work, but it looks a bit strange on me, especially in the shoulders and sleeves.

Any estimate as to when the 526J-142ib model restock will be arriving?

[AdamJ]

@Nostradamion hopefully live this month

*the 142ib, not the lefty

@AdamJ Gotcha; thanks much!!

I got stuck with the problem kids today. This is exasperated Cosmo. But still looking ok thanks to the LeftyOD

finally went to pull the trigger and rivet and hide finally sold out. i know some of the 21oz od is coming back this year, will we see another lefty od trucker??

[Tago Mago]

@indigo_nico it will probably be a while as indicated here

[Northman]

@nurunuru After 7 years of wear. How soft and pliable would you say it has become?

[nurunuru]

@Northman Just so happens I'm wearing it right now! Yes. Unrecognisably soft/pliable compared to how it started. Though it's definitely still decidedly hefty/substantial of course, as that's just the nature of the fabric.

I still remember the first few months were particularly uncomfortable in the armpits where four bloody layers of fabric all combine in a little square. That, for instance, is utterly unbothersome now. And has been for ages.

The pasque flowers are up; the boreal chorus frogs are awake. Spring has reached Minnesota!

[Northman]

Well. Yesterday with a heavy heart I had to sell mine. XXXL was just a little too snug. I tried and tried but deep down I always knew I would wear it a lot more if I had SP-Large. Couldn't help it. It has been said multiple times in this thread already but word of advice again for all. Lefty is not to be messed with. Get the sizing right! Too tight aint right!

Will get a bigger one next time this comes around. Or the SBG or the DD. Whichever type 3 shows up first.

But also, hard to dig when too big

[Northman]

@V-P True too!

[CosmoSix5]

Wash 1 coming up. 1 year old.

[CosmoSix5]

Well judging by the water it definitely needed washed. Ewww. 30 minutes soaking, hand agitated as it broke my stick One agitated rinse and now it's hanging up to dry.
