@beef_bonanza Thanx, I prefer a more snug fit but it's of course nice to be able to layer up with an UHF. I will probably go with the same size as my UHF's and my IHJ-69 (L).

@Ross Thanx! I might take you up on that

Not much going on yet, but the fabric is already starting to settle. I mentioned it before, but this weight and fabric seems just to be perfectly matching for a Type 3

Hard as f*ck to capture the colour of this stuff. Depending on lightning it can change between bold black and dark blue. However I have some first progress coming in after 3 weeks of light wear. The black seems to fade rather quickly.

I just pulled the trigger on this jacket, my first from IH! Can't wait for it to arrive. I'm an OD fanboy 100%! I find the OD jeans evolve so uniquely. Nice pics @beef_bonanza

@beef_bonanza I see what you mean I have the same issue with my 142ib.

Nice evo btw

Can‘t remember that I have ever enjoyed a jacket so much. Fit might be a bit loser than the classic slim fit style for Type 3’s. But I wanted to fit even the thickest sweater I own (of course IH) underneath.
Bit more than 2 months in. Some slight evo ongoing but all in all still kind of new. No break in required at all.

Hi, I'm just wondering if it's suppose to be like this? during the weekend that was I took my jacket with me and it was kinda warm so I decided to fold up the arms a bit and when I got home and folded it back I noticed that the stiches had been torn a bit but it feels weird. Should I try and have the stiches fixed and avoid folding it up in the future?

Hi @K, I wouldn't be worried. It's just a little bit of extra stitching that will come off over time. As you can see just above, there is a lock-off stitch to stop it from becoming fully unstitched, and where they should have stopped, it's just where guys have put the jacket together. They have slightly overrun it, so i wouldnt be worried. If are you can always give me a direct message on here and I will be here to help.

@JoshC That's reassuring. I was a bit worried since I've never had a denim jacket before and so far I'm loving it! I still haven't gotten to the point of washing it so it's still looks new unlike all the other beauties here.
