@JasonT No worries about the thread, it can be daunting trying to find your way around!

I think you would be safe on the medium, in that case. You may want to make a note when you place the order that you'd like one that is slightly larger than chart if possible; that would give you a tiny bit of wiggle room. If you sized up, you could probably wash it a little warmer than you normally would to force some shrinkage if needed.

I think I would err on the former, if you are sure you are happy washing cold etc

Is it possible to stretch a jacket made of polyester? (e.g. the IHJ-79)

According to the internet, soaking a polyester T-Shirt in hot water for 30 minutes with some conditioner and stretching it manually should help, but I can't imagine that it would work on a jacket.

[sabergirl]

I’m sure it depends on the knit of the polyester. You can stretch pretty much any fabric in a jersey knit like a T-shirt. Might also get a little stretch out of a twill weave, but I wouldn’t expect much.

[sabergirl]

Just realized your example was the 79. No, I don’t think that will ever stretch.

[cityofdelusion]

@sabergirl In that case, I'll have to look out for another IHJ-08 in medium additionally to the size small that I recently purchased. It's such a damn good jacket and I can wear it with a T-Shirt, but it's rather snug (only on the arms) when I wear an IH hoodie. Hope someone gets rid of their size medium :hand_with_index_and_middle_fingers_crossed: but I'm not counting on it haha.

@Alex Sorry to bug you, but I have one last question (hopefully). After looking through the shirts I began to second guess my choice. I am thinking about the12oz Hickory Stripe Western Indigo Shirt. Would you suggest still going with a medium in this model? Recall I measured a shirt of mine which has a P2P of 21.5 and the waist is 20.5. It fits well, with room to spare.

[Alex]

I would see if there is a medium with a slightly smaller P2P than chart @Jttuck

Is there a new Pronto collab happening anytime soon?

I think the IH/Pronto collabs definitely have their place in IH history/lore. The 25OZ I/I are to this day my all time favorite denim. As far as nothing in the “pipe”..Well yesterday was “420”

@Jett129 ba dum tss…

The 25oz II sold super badly in Thailand funnily enough......

The irony of that is,if I remember correctly, is that the fabric was made specifically for them,for their denim carnival. It ended up being fortunate for us as they would allow you to sell some of them.

[Giles]

Yeah, and what was even more unfortunate for my pride, is that it was my idea and I convinced Chnanon that it would sell like crack....
