IH-526J-22OD - 22oz Selvedge Denim Type III Jacket - Indigo Overdyed Black

[neph93]

Well this was a great idea. No item of IH I own gets more compliments than my IH-526j-OD and this is pretty damn close to that in every way, measurements included. I'm tempted to spring for one just based on that…

:o This is a wonderful surprise. Measurements are right about where I'd like, too. Any disappointment I had about the undyed version not working for me has turned to joy for this. I'll take the XXXL with the widest shoulder spec, please…

Is this the 22OZ denim with the brown/beige weft?

Must be but I didn’t know it would be OD’d

It is indeed the same. I don’t think anyone knew it would be OD’ed.

I find myself wanting a t-shirt under fit, on the snug side.  What happens when @Giles puts on the large?  Any possible fit there?  (I'm a bit puzzled by the staff fit that Adam C wears the large since numbers-wise his shoulders are 20" and P2P is 42.5, correct?)  (n.b., I teach dead aka classical languages because math is hard.)  TIA for any input.

Sorry, @profdbrk I'm not sure why Giles was listed as wearing an XL, he wore L.

Been out for a long time. But this jacket has brought me back. Already have the lefty OD, but ive adorned it with patches. I want to keep this one clean. The XXXXL has great measurements for me. I hope 1 of the 2 are still available tomorrow.

@HeavyGenes they still are

Invested in this beauty a couple if weeks ago. My IH-526j-OD was an early IH purchase for me about five (maybe six?!), years ago and I’vr loved it ever since. It is a touch big though and gets use over hoodies and UHF’s in the autumn, spring and milder sections of winter.

When this came out it spoke to me both as an updated, over-a-tee version of that beloved jacket, but also because it was the 22oz, which is just a brilliant denim. I was really conflicted about doubling up on OD type III’s but prioritised it. So glad I did.

Looks awesome @neph93 Great to see it in the wild!

.    Exactly what he said. Measurements just didn’t work for me,but in light of me selling my OD TypeIII,I would have bought this. Have to live vicariously through you.

Looks great on you, @neph93. What size is that compared to your OD?

[motojobobo]

Great look @neph93 ! I waffled over getting this one…find it lovely.
I vote for the untucked look btw.

[neph93]

Thanks gents. I love it. The 22oz is just a tad more dense  a weave than the 21oz, and the jacket on the whole oozes solidity.

@wdw this in an XL, my IH-526j-OD was an XXL. My IH-526-PQ is an L, but they came up a little differently.

I don’t know how many of these have been sold but I’m going to try a populate this thread often over the next few years. The plan is to wear this regularly over a single layer, then use it as a shirt, under the C3 vest or N-1 jacket in the colder months. There is also a very real risk of me getting the ivory/white N-1 vest from FW20 when they drop, just because I think it will look awesomeballs over this.
