@goosehd yeah figured it was a long shot. however found some good images of a worn johnny cash shirt that looks very nice

@Alex thanks for the quick reply. just to clarify, these are confirmed to be returning though, even if it isn't this month?

Alex

@akohut yes

akohut

Any ETA on this?

AdamJ

@akohut It was due soon, but there's been an issue with the fabric so we'll let you know when we hear more

Notchas

AJ, any update on these

AdamJ

@Notchas No update since the above I'm afraid, issue with the fabric suggests it won't be soon. I will update when I hear more

Don’t suppose there’s been an update here? I believe the SBG version of this jacket is dropping soon yeah?

@ShopatIronHeart

Graham

No word yet I’m afraid.

As soon as JP send an email saying that they are ready we’ll start shouting about it here.

Obvious differences in fading aside, how does this jacket/denim compare to the SBG? Is it stiffer and heavier feeling?

Graham

Equally heavy but the 9526 is noticeably stiffer and the sbg noticeably softer.

I can confirm what @Graham said. I have the SBG as 555 and this vest since 2016. I‘ve washed the vest at least 20 times and wore the hell out of it and it is still super stiff. The SBG however was sweatpantslike soft after one wash and a few days of wear.

Have these ever been offered in some sort of lined version? Either in the SBG or the super black… if so, is there a chance they ever would be again?

Alex

Not that I can think of. This denim may be discontinued. We are having big issues with the production, and I am in talks with Japan about it currently

sabergirl

Oh no! I love having super-black in my rotation. Bummer.

Alex

it would. be a major bummer, yes, but - we are talking specifically (at the moment) about the superblack non selvedge, so it does not mean that the con fade black things will never be made again
