@Tobi it's a tricky to size jacket. The one I sold was a grail piece for me but when I found other jackets that fit much better, the dimensions that weren't really working out for me starter to bother me more and more. Maybe a future run will have the right measurements for you

@jordanscollected I read about that in the other forum thread about the IND version, thanks for the heads up. I really like the serge fabric in this weight and can only imagine how it will feel when fully broken in

Thanks a lot guys!! So glad I have this jacket.

Jacket finally arrived!!!! So happy with it, thanks to @DeeDee85 for selling his 142 and to @endo for being aware of it waiting for me in the market place. DHL was a bit of an adventure this time and the package was stuck in customs for a couple days. In my mind all the customs agents had a turn in trying the jacket on because it's so badass.

Anyway XL was the right call, still roomy and perfect for layering but way less bulky. Looking forward to fall wearing it all the time.

@Oaktavia fantastic!! When I think about how Long I needed to produce visible fades in 21oz bottons it's crazy how contrasted your fadelines are already

I have an on/off relationship with watches. Wore some casios back in the day, then got into affordable mechanical watches, sold them all because I only wore my Garmin eventually but then started to feel the urge to get a real watch again. Had a tudor black bay 36 for a while but as much as I liked it I did not really see the point in a "real luxury watch" and was not comfortable to wear it as a beater and it felt to pricey to not wear it. I sold it and got a very cool Seiko.

Happy to answer all your questions

@neph93 the way your hem stacks at the Adidas looks like the jeans we're made to fit the sneakers and the vest still looks good, very trim

@Niney I wore mine with a jap cuff for a while. Worked fine, the taper is not that strong. But I had them slightly hemmed so the opening was wieder than factory length. Eventually I decided to go single cuff with a good amound of stacked fabric

@Niney why would a japanese cuff not work? You mean physically or aesthatically?

Found a place for my patch. Yes stichtching is bad and it's not really centered but first time sewing for me

@Mizmazzle tbh I often do this, reading topics all the way from the beginning when I am bored. I think there's a couple of discussions I have read 2-3 times even for discontinued items just because I love seing the progress and what people say about it

@Tobi I had both too and would say the 142 is more what you are looking for. The lefty od is softer than the indigo one but still hefty and I would not be comfortable with it all day inside. The 14oz one does fade slower and with less contrast but drapes faster

@aimes no need to use hot water. You spray water on your sleeves and then just wear the shirt and set the creases while moving around

@endo looking sleek. Had this one on, but decided that one brown Type3 is enough, since I own the 17 oz duck

@endo @Twistlock thanks guys!!! You are totally right. I knew it when I ordered but did not check the market. You helped two fellow IH buddys out, @DeeDee85 and me

@endo good advice!! Actually it was your fit pic that made me want that jacket

Looking for fit advice. Got one of the last ones out of fomo. XXL like most of my tops. I know I could have sized down but went for the xxl to layer with thick hoodie and my shirts. What do you think? Sleeve length and mobility feels great but does it look too bulky?

@Jcaz6996 I feel you, mine are also looking a little different from what I expected after I wore them to work a while. Still enjoying them and think yours are very cool and have a lot of character

Soaking and washing would not do a lot. You could wash really hot (not my advice) and look if it shrinks a bit if rest of the shirt still has room. I personally would spray water on the sleeves to set some creases and live with it.
