what size?

@dawei94:

what size?

XL…(read carefully again!)

I really thought this jacket would be waterproof and that it would "end" all other jackets, but after a 10 min bike ride I was soaked to my skin. Still obviously an awesome jacket, but everywhere you read it says Ventile is waterproof.

[Giles]

Damn, sorry about that.  Bloody Ventile…...I'll make sure we reflect that in future descriptions.....

[MikeC]

Do they really say ventile is waterproof?  It should say water resistant.

They meaning the general consensus.

[Giles]

This is what I say on the website:

Japanese "Ventile” lining - Ventile is a 100% tightly woven cotton, developed during WWII as a waterproof survival suit material

Not inaccurate, but possibly misleading…

[Peter]

Even their own website/wiki both say it's water- and or weatherproof, so yeah But since we're on the subject (for possible future purchases) - ventile is not waterproof, but windproof (very fucking windproof) and water resistant, yes?

Blatant thread heist!!!!

I marked down my XL green NWT to 558.00 that is 10% off regular price!!

too bad it isn't a large buddy!…

[Megatron1505]

You would not fit in a large Rafa, XL for you buddy. I have an XXL, and the arms are tight.

[Finn666]

you could be right!…hmmmmm  :-\

[seanocono]

Finn, Mega is definitely right. I went with my normal IH shirt size and cannot comfortably layer a thick hoodie, due to the arm/shoulders. It's perfect for me, however, because I can wear this with a regular IH shirt, and tee, 9+ months a year where I live. This is such a great jacket – I highly recommend it. I've owned several other M65s, and none of them come close to this.

[dawei94]

Is it possible to size down on this? I have the IHW-05 in large, and i have some room left. Would it be possible to wear a medium?

[Megatron1505]

I would say no, especially if you plan on wearing it  :-\

[Snowy]

Would say No on sizing down. This is a size up, if anything jacket….

[JCMx800]

I am a M/L guy and the L fits perfect!!!
