IH-526J-142ib - 14oz Selvedge Denim Modified Type III Jacket - Indigo/Black
-
Color on these is so good.
-
Has an almost dark violet / inky appearance; amazing!!
-
So the jacket arrived, and it fits great!! The sleeves are a little long when I’m standing straight up, but I expect them to shrink a bit once the creases set in. That same extra length is totally welcome when I’m driving, as the sleeves don’t creep up my forearm, but rather hit my wrists just about perfectly.
The color of this jacket is amazing. There’s an almost “wet” look to it, and the underlying ultraviolet colors that come out when the light hits it just right, lends credence to what a friend of mine told me about this model long ago: the Atari fades you can get if you stick with it are absolutely insane.
Game on!!

@Nostradamion I’m happy the sleeve measurement worked out for you. It looks great. I’ve been wearing mine a lot. The denim and fit are just excellent.

I had been eyeing this one for about a year and was finally able to grab one from the restock in January '26. The team was quick to answer sizing questions and after ordering on a Saturday afternoon, had the jacket in hand (in Oregon USA) that Thursday! Thought I would share some sizing, fit, and quality details about this one for my first post in this forum.
For reference, I'm 5'11, 180lbs, 33' waist, 41.5' chest, broader shoulders, and athletic build. My favorite fitting denim jacket literally fell right in between the L and XL on this one. Since I will wear with longsleeve Tshirts, button ups, and thicker knits now and again went with the XL.
First, pictures do the color(s) of this piece no justice! This is the most powerful colored garment I've ever seen. In brighter light it projects a deep rich navy, but in flat light its almost obsidian or ink black. After just a few days buttoning up and normal wear I started to get indigo bleed on my fingers and the fabric quickly modeled to my shape and started setting creases, so I know this thing is going to fade insanely!
As for the fit, the XL is cut perfect for me. There is room all around for it to feel tailored with just a Tshirt on, but still just enough room to have a comfortable fit and nonrestrictive movement over a flannel. I can comfortably wear it over a thick hoodie as well, it just feels a little more slim fully buttoned up.
I look forward to wearing this thing everyday and am once again incredibly impressed with Iron Heart quality and craftsmanship!
Cheers,
B.

@worn2fade Dude, thank you so much!! I give all coolness credit to the jacket.

I think one of my first posts after getting this jacket was how surprised I was at the lack of indigo bleed. Well, I was totally wrong about that. I guess all it needed was being trapped in a rainstorm without an umbrella. Already getting nice electric blue fades on the arms. Absolutely loving this jacket. Here it is over a hickory CPO and 888 UHRs

That's how my new IH-526J-142ib fits me. What would you say?

For those that recently made a purchased, did you size up or keep your normal size?
-
@michael.rose0107 normal but mine was from the previous run
-
I had mine for a month and a half now; I used the same measurements chart that came out witht this run, and it looks fine.
Sleeves are a bit longer than I want; I soaked them in hot water twice, but they did not shrink at all, at least this is what I feel.They fit me well all around.
Look how the sleeves stack:
-
I took my normal IH size but asked the guys to find me an XL with a wider than listed chest measurement.
-
Welp, I caved
And not only did I buy this jacket, but I also bought the 14oz denim pants
