IH-101J-SR - 18oz Selvedge Denim Storm Rider Jacket - Indigo

@Joberwocky:

I've been wearing it pretty aggressively this winter and find the fades are slowly developing, but are starting.  It's a boss jacket for sure…though I'm still envious of the 19oz Lefty

I feel like it's one or the other with those two…and I also think this one suits you well broski.

Just did a first pass of the driveway for the blizzard going on right now. This jacket was so perfect. Kept me warm and dry.

Edit: Added another photo the next day of it out in the snow with the boy. Also, this jacket went through the dryer twice, 20 minutes each time to dry it out from the snow, and it came out great.

The fades, they're trying

@rydor that is excellent stuff dude. Love both those pics. Where are you in the world?

[rydor]

Out on Long Island (NY). Just had about 24” of snow in the blizzard.

Shit… yeah, I have a brother living in Brooklyn. That looked like heavy weather.

Hello I managed to get one of these from ebay yesterday ( sold out in my size). I down sized and went with small I’m 5’11 70 kgs and a 38”chest.The stitching and build quality are brilliant the only thing is the denim feels very light for 18 oz it feels more like your 14 oz. This is not a gripe just something I noticed probably because I own the older 19oz lefty which feels like 30oz.
Also are there any of these with any fades yet?

Good to see you (looking good [emoji6]).

Yeah fabric weight is weird. So much depends on the fibres, the weave, and the hand. The 19oz is gnarly and feels at least as hefty as XHS, while the 18oz is quite beautiful but as you say feels relatively light. I’ve just scored the SLB denim at 16oz and the uneven hand makes it feel heavier than it is.

Thanks Rueben I’ve recently moved back down south where I was born so I’ m only an hour away from Iron Heart now but hoping this will be my last denim jacket.

I love my Stormrider, the denim feels nice and soft and the blanket lining adds a nice heft.  Good looking fit @Gammaman

[Gammaman]

Yeah thanks @Joberwocky I'm pleased with mine and can't take it off.

…a little Storm Rider love!

…I heard a statistic that this past winter, 1 in 3 days were below 0 fahrenheit...I wore this jacket through most of it.

Looks like a perfect fit to me! [emoji3059]

The cat is purring. And let me wear my jacket.

[Anesthetist]

Probably my last wear for the season

[Gammaman]

The season never ends @Anesthetist   
Mines started to fade.

Just got one.  My only regret is that it is now summer

[bubbapest]

I never ended up getting the L, would have been too small.  Any eta on a restock?
