IH-X526J - Black Cotton Duck Type III Jacket

[Grumpy Mike]

Couldn't pass it up either… I've been eyeing this jacket for some time now, and it was totally worth the wait at this price... cheers

Congrats guys. You're going to love this jacket.

Thank you, veloaudio - really like your fit a few pages back. What size is it and how tall are you?

[veloaudio]

I wear a L in shirts. My x526J is an XL. I'm 6'2"

You guys will love this jacket. Mine was worth every cent at full price, so at half price this is totally insane!

I think Giles has lost the plot.

Sounds good. Cheers!

Was eying an XL yesterday - then they were gone. Now I got weak and tried my luck with an XXL. Normally I'm an L / XL in shirts.

The price is just too good and except for the shoulders I figure this will fit. Was always a fan of black Type IIIs with side pocket. Please cross your fingers that it fits. Will there be tiny bit of shrinkage?

Looks good G..
Arms a bit long though!

[Max Power]

Thanks! I love long arms - pretty confident this will be a perfect fit and allow some layering as well.

[JamesMarg]

You went with the XXL Max??

[fifediesel]

For what it's worth - I'm a XXXL in this while I'm usually an XXL in shirts.  Even have an XL in the IHM-03.

If you are into layering at all sizing up from your normal works pretty well.  I can wear a heavy flannel or a hoodie underneath and the fit is spot on.

Fold the cuffs back, it is pretty standard thing to do on a Type III

[JamesMarg]

I'm looking forward to trying out different things with the jacket, thanks for all your help G.

[JamesMarg]

Hahahaha,
Slightly confused now!

[Max Power]

Yes, I tried XXL. But would have chosen XL if there was one left.

[JamesMarg]

Same deal here.
Im pretty sure we are similar size from our other buys… such as L in the 86 and XL in the 87.
Hopefully this fits!

[Max Power]

Exactly.

[riffblaster general]

thanks G!  this actually looks perfect sized up on you.
