      Tomorrow I'm posting pics of me wearing this as a jacket (over the best shirt in the world, the 43). It's only gonna be -2 C° so should be good  🙂

      And thank you, lads, for the kind words.

        It's the shoulders and upper arms that are a bit loose for me, but I think maybe I just need to give it more wear and soften it up a little.

          Looking forward to this. I tried layering mine with the 37 and they were kinda tight in the arm and wrist area. Keep in mind I sized up on my usual shirt size for the IHW-01.

            i usually have to undo the button on the wrist to fit a shirt under otherwise it's just too much & it squeezes my wrist to death.

              Tried it: no issues whatsoever. Telling you: the 43 offers the best of ALL worlds…  🙂

                Are we referring to the OG IHW-01 or the recent cut?
                I believe the new one's have a tapered sleeve, unless both cuts sleeve taper.

                    I pretty much have to do this same thing in a t shirt as well.

                      Either the cut inconsistent or Seul has thin arms… 😛

                        & that's why i returned the XL cause it just didn't feel right.

                        so you like it with the wrists undone?  if i recall your old flicks it was a good look.

                          Thin wrists, small hands. Big(ger) from the wrist up  😉

                            The material is a tad thicker than the first incarnation which may make each size slightly tighter fitting. G mentioned it some time back after asking Haraki-San.

                              Yea, I like it quite a lot actually.  There are two buttons, and I usually undo the lowest button and leave the higher button in place, see pick below.  It gives me a little more mobility for driving and wearing a watch.  I am 100% sure there is no way I can fit a watch under it without undoing the button, so it pretty much limits my options.  Also, the sleeve length approaches the wider part of my wrist, so it would just start bunching up if I didn't undo the button.  Honestly, after looking at the picture more, I think I like the look of the button undone more than done anyway.

                                          If I wear a L in IH Flannels, could I wear a L in this and have room for a flannel underneath?

                                            You should be fine depending on the flannel and its thickness. Below I am wearing a IHW-01(XL) over my IHSH-07(XL) for a little reference. Yes the Wool is a bit thicker on the newer versions but I was by no means uncomfortable.
