IH-526J-142OD - 14oz Selvedge Denim Modified Type III - Overdyed Indigo

I suspect that is a result of polycotton stitching being used on the one but not on the other. Polycotton thread won’t take up the black dye.

Been waiting for this.  When will we know the measurements and when's the planned go live date?

Measurements should be up here tomorrow.  Go live scheduled for tomorrow…..

Thanks.  Here's hoping the dims work for me.  OD seems to shrink the chest more than anything, leaving a size up for the chest too long for me in the others I've seen.

Looks loverly.  And yes, the lack of "stealth W" à la 526Lod is an interesting difference.

[Miiks]

Oh my.

[Wlemon]

Wow. Anyone know the price on this bad boy?

Somewhere in the $400+ range?  :D. The non-OD IH-526J-142 is listed at $375 and the 526Lod is $475. Of course, i'm just guessing. All will be revealed tomorrow

[Giles]

USD425, should have been in first post - sorry

Quite a shrinkage on the XL.  I take it @Giles would be an XXL in this?

Also, how many XXLs (and others) are for sale?

[Giles]

I am an XXL in this.  Going live soon, you'll find out then….

[wdw]

The XXL is this seems better for me than the old 19oz XXL dims, so hopefully I'll be free when it goes live.

The shoulders seem pretty narrow on both the 142 & 142OD in comparison to other jackets of similar sizing. No doubt makes for extra trim fit but is there room for stretch?

[Giles]

Denim will always stretch where pressure is applied…Though because of the construction of the shoulder (felled seam), this will limit the fabrics ability to stretch as much as in non-stitched areas...

That’s reasonable.

It was more out of curiosity as I’ve noticed that the 526-14 is slim shouldered too so wondered why they measure up smaller than their ‘beefier’ counterparts.

Very tempted by this one. But I have 3 Type 3 Jackets and one Type 3 Vest.  ::)
