IH-526PJ - 21oz Selvedge Denim Modified Type III Jacket - Indigo

[Denimmacdaily]

I love all these jackets. I own two so far from my list to get. This is 5th in my list from iron heart jackets.

There’s one thing I wish every jacket here had and that is selvedge cuffs and other areas for fun. Such as inside pocket or the waist button areas !

Picked up one of these from SENY about a year ago and it's one of my favorite jackets. Just an incredible denim, and I love the weight of it.

I had an issue where I had to cuff the arms to get them the proper length, but once I was wearing it cuffed, the wrist holes were too tight and I couldn't get my hands through if I was wearing a watch.

So, I found a fix for this - Soak the cuffs in warm water, stuff a ball jar through the arm and into the cuff, and let it stretch out overnight. Now the thing fits perfect. I did feel a little insane doing this, but, couldn't be happier with the outcome.

Are we looking at a restock of these anytime soon since some of the other 21oz stuff is restocking?

Also, has there been any talks of an over-dyed version of this jacket?

@ton312 have you ever owned the 526L? If so, how would you compare and what do you prefer?

[goosehd]

@jpvisual The individual that you tagged has not been on the forum since Nov 2023. I don't think that they will respond.

[jpvisual]

@goosehd thanks and good to know! I'm just trying to get some opinions on the the 526-PJ vs the 526L from those who own both, what they prefer and why.

[Luijim78]

@jpvisual the 526pj is much softer and more comfortable but much more tenacious and difficult to dissolve, the Lefty indigo is initially in armour then softens a lot but always remains nice and crunchy and easier to dissolve.I love them both but I prefer the Lefty for its consistency

[jpvisual]

@Luijim78 thanks for the post. Did you get the same size in both jackets? I'm leaning towards the Lefty, but a bit worried on sizing it correctly because it shrinks.

[Luijim78]

@jpvisual there is not much shrinkage more than anything it adjusts to your body with a warm soak, however as you may have noticed it is already slightly wider and longer in the corresponding size compared to the 526pj. Get your usual size and you will have no problems in my opinion

@coffeetv did you ever pick up a 526L? If so, how do you like it compared to the 526PJ?
