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

[Oaktavia]

@Larkens yes indeed

[Lowlander]

@Oaktavia, definitely one wash, but the number of wears I'm less certain about. As a ballpark figure I'd say about 300 days of wear.

Sorry, I have the regular lefty, but not the OD version.

[Oaktavia]

@Lowlander right on man, thanks for the info. Much more subtle fades with this one compared to other denim. I'm going to give it a go.

If you soak this first can it then go in the wash? Or better to hand wash to avoid any marbling?

I had some indigo transfer in my trousers so wanted to wash to hopefully stop that.

Absolutely

[Oaktavia]

@natefreezy That is what I plan to do with mine when the time comes.

[Oaktavia]

Wearing this more than my 140IG lately. Mostly wearing underneath my 295bb.

[Oaktavia]

Progress on this awesome jacket. Definitely seeing some fades turning black to blue. Loving this evo so far and will keep wearing it a lot. Took these photos during an ice storm so a little bit of ice was falling on the denim.

[Oaktavia]

Progressive flow of the evo.

[Lowlander]

@Oaktavia wow, that one is coming along very nicely! Do I see some indigo coming through or is that an effect of the sunlight? My jacket seems to fade to grey.

[JunkPants]

@Oaktavia Looks great! Dig this jacket.

[Oaktavia]

@Lowlander it is blue coming though like blue grey. The sunlight makes it more visible for sure. It looks more grey indoors with fluorescent lighting. Outdoors it looks as overdye has been described to fade to indigo and grey. Same with my 25oz Mad Black. Always looks more blue outside in the backyard.

[Oaktavia]

69 wears no wash. The colors of this denim shine brightly in the sun. It is alluring to see a dark, muted denim revealed in glistening glory. I'm going to hold off on a wash for now and see where it goes from here. This jacket is taking the driver's seat over my 140IG.

Thanks man I really want to beat this one up.

[RobeOfTheMagi]

I never knew this jacket existed! Is it still alive?

She's definitely built for a beating. Gets softer with every wear.

It's undead no more fabric AFAIK.

[RobeOfTheMagi]

Such a pity. I’m always looking for really short but great fading jackets.
