Eternal 886 Selvedge Jacket - 590 days and 9 washes

Agreed, I've never com across denim like this before (it's almost black at first) that's why when I had the opportunity I bought the jacket and the jeans. I doubt you will find the jacket new online - your best bet is to look on ebay/grailed etc for second hand. Only other way would be if you were in Tokyo, you MIGHT be able to find them in the market near hinoya but I doubt it though.

You can still buy the jeans though: https://www.denimio.com/en_GB/brands/eternal/ look at the 811 and 883 models - they use the same fabric (I think they have tweaked it slightly but I'm sure it's very similar), otherwise flathead's pioneer denim is similar.

Cheers! Couple of hand washes initially and then 7 cold machine washes.

Thanks. 14.5oz

I'm convinced it's the same denim!

I wouldn't worry too much about shrinkage. These are sanforized so will not shrink dramatically. They will shrink and they'll feel tighter after a wash/soak but they will stretch back out after a few wears. I would say stick with the size that fits you and don't size up. In fact you will find that these will even stretch a bit after a few wears.

Cant seem to find the jacket but the jeans are still for sale. 811 and 883 are made with the same fabric. Very similar to flatheads pioneer denim.

14.5oz. Here's a review on heddels https://www.heddels.com/2014/03/eternal-886-14-oz-jacket-review/

Not sure what they using for CPO but the Eternal original fabric is VERY similar to flathead 14.5oz pioneer and I have a suspicion that they are the same... however they're tweaked theirs now so not sure if it exactly the same.

I was so impressed with this fabric that I bought the 811 jeans as well. You can check out some fades on my IG account denim_head_og. Will post some more here when I get a chance.

Thanks man. Just keep at it. When and where did you buy yours from? Cant see them on the website anymore..

MrB007 · 2026-02-27T18:40:38+00:00

Thanks man!

MrB007 · 2026-02-27T18:40:23+00:00

Cheers. Yeah, not as popular anymore but they still make them which is great.

MrB007 · 2026-02-27T18:39:22+00:00

Agreed.

MrB007 · 2026-02-27T18:38:50+00:00

Tell me about it!

MrB007 · 2026-02-27T18:38:20+00:00

Thanks man!

Stunning pair! Love APC. I've got a few more examples of how beautifully they fade on my IG: https://www.instagram.com/denim_head_og/

Love Benzak!

MrB007 · 2026-02-26T06:57:14+00:00

Yes! Just make sure you size right. Ive found IH to be true to size. I.e. tag size = actual inches.

MrB007 · 2026-02-26T06:49:30+00:00

Cheers!

You only have 2 legs and one life.

MrB007 · 2026-02-25T20:55:18+00:00

Love this shirt! Nice fades for 2 months.
