      tbh. @Chain$titch i´m not a big help right here, since i haven´t worn mine that often and i haven´t washed it as well. but i´d say, if in doubt, go with the larger size. i wouldn't want to wait for any stretching and if you think it´s too big, you can always try to shrink it down a bit.

        Great looking pictures from everyone – just went through all the pages!  I have a Self Edge SEIH22Type III (20 oz.), which is also very dark, heavy, and stiff, but am tempted by the IHxVS-T1-DD.  Simple and classic with interesting details (e.g., buttons).

        I'm a 44 in the Type III (not unlike the IH-526L Lefty Trucker) so would guess I'd be a 44 in the Type I.  For those who have washed theirs, are you seeing a bit of shrinkage?  I'm a little concerned the size 44 sleeves will be long but if they come up a bit, it should be fine.

            I gave my jacket the first gentle machine wash, insideout and in a bag (and I did some handwashes before), but still got some washing marks. I hope they'll even out over time…

                  That's a tough jacket! Evo looking promising though

                      My thoughts exactly … the pin is rad!

                        Thanks, the pin is a catch from a US friend dealing with antique Rodeo Stuff and Cowboy gear.
                        That one is really used as a cowboy jacket. Love the boxy fitting in the saddle as well!
