New drop today fellas;

It's a Type III Trucker in the Double Duck Loombreaker fabric.  Love the look of this thing and the fades should be ridiculous.

I want this, BADLY!!!!! I will keep an eye on the stock pile, and IF it runs low before my 90day is complete, I will likely break cycle for this item, because if I'm not mistaken, this fabric won't be offered again

It is a super nice jacket. Tiny clarification though: non-selvedge = non-loombreaker

Ah...I stand corrected

To dig up an old thread....does anyone have the standard 21 oz 526J jacket?

These are available through Global Rakuten at about $250, which is a decent price compared to the $400 elsewhere. I'm currently working on breaking in a Momotaro denim jacket, but this IH-526J is strongly calling my name and the fit would be better for me too I think. I've never worn a 21 oz denim jacket before, but the IHUK boards express a lot of love for it.

jeffrx, weird you say that, as I often think it calls to me too. I keep looking at it and even emailed Rodeo when it was out of stock, but still haven't pulled the trigger. I'm tempted again, though

I have the 21oz superblack vest, but it's a lot stiffer than the 21oz indigo which I have in my jeans, which is acknowledged as a great fabric. I think this would be a great jacket, and that price is excellent. Looks like you need to size up from the shirts, though.

Yep, Rodeo Bros is the shop who has em.  I would go with the largest size if I get it.   Need to think on it a little.  I do wish it was just an inch or so longer, that's my only concern.  I understand that they are going for the short jacket look though.

I'm with you on the length, but sizing up helps make it sensible looking as long as it doesn't shrink much.

I'd probably prefer the Lefty 19oz, as it has inner pockets and is longer, but it's $465 and IHUK only.

I do wish IHUK would do an introductory offer for new buyers, just to sweeten the deal the first time. I know the CS is excellent, but you'd hope not to use it.

jeffrx, good for you. You'll have it soon, so I await your verdict with interest. That might push me over the edge.

Awesome! The 21oz 526 indigo? Or the duck?

I keep wanting to buy the 526 and the 21oz Sonny Berger black vest but I keep think against it.

Got the IH jacket from Rodeo. I think I'm going to give it a hot wash to see if I can shrink the sleeves a little. It's heavy and sturdy, as you would expect. I fully expect this jacket to be with me for the rest of my life. It's just a beast of a denim jacket.

jeffrx, looking good, especially the length. What size is it and what height are you?

Thanks.  I'm about 6'1 and  225 lbs (should be 210-215) and I wear a 44 suit.  This is a size 46.  For reference, I wear an XXL in Gustin shirts.  I can afford to shrink this a little, so in the hot water it will go.

Yes shrink that baby up a little it should then be perfect.
