IH-X526J - Black Cotton Duck Type III Jacket

[patch]

Black is slimming

[Giles]

Not slimmer…

[Dirty Denim]

Must be what Patch mentioned…all an illusion

Black is slimming. That's why I love my 9526 ( one of many reasons)
Edit. I mean the colour not the measurements

I'm curious as to how this looks over a flannel…anyone help?

I'll let you know when mine arrives tomorrow.

I'm 6'6" and normally wear an XXL in Iron Heart shirts.  This is a XXXL jacket over a Flat Head winter flannel.

Solid fit and nice combo with the FH shirt.

I just got my IH-x526J in the mail today! Ordered it as an Xmas present for myself. Size small fits perfectly, enough room to layer but small enough to wear with just a T-shirt. This was my first IH purchase. My next pair of jeans will definitely be from IH.

sounds perfect, enjoy it….

how's the black duck wear?

the brown duck gets white in the abrasive areas, does the black do the same?

cheers,

jesse

It gets a greyish/charcoal color. I have the black duck overalls.

five months in.

Wow! This pic makes me want to wear my black duck jacket more. It's been too cold lately in NY. Have you washed yours yet?

[tatmantall]

To those who own did you experience much loss in sleeve length after combs set?

[RocknRoll]

TMT - I didn't get that much change in arm length, maybe 1/2 inch at most. Definitely less than my 526Jod.

By the way, this jacket so under-rated. The duck is crispy at first, but softens up beautifully after just a couple of weeks.  The 'hidden' inside pockets are a master touch.

It's an incredible jacket (as Neitenhosen's pics demonstrate) and I can't understand why it's a slow seller.

There you go, that's my unsponsored endorsement!

RnR.

Here's a few pics of mine when it was new (I had previously posted them, but for some reason they dropped off the web….)

It's a size L, and it's just big enough for me (which OK considering I only ever wear it over a t-shirt).

[tatmantall]

Thanks RnR… really considering it looks like an XL might work... would be really close on the length though.

Might have to shoot Giles a message and see if any of the XL's have a bit more length than the sizing chart alludes too.

Thanks again bud
