^^Agreed!!^^

Once broken in and after its 1st proper wash, it'll be perfect!!! At least that's what i've experienced with my IH type 3. Congrats guys!!

From these pics the arms on the SEXIH22 are a bit fuller than the Lefty Trucker. Glad I went with the LT.

Post soak. 20 mins warm-hot water with a touch of Dr Bonners to loosen it up. Not 100% dry but I couldn't resist trying it on.

this tends to be the case…Giles/Kiya, do you know why?

I'm guessing you're really happy with the fit, summ3r. I certainly would be.

Chewie & summ3r, anybody measured pre/post soaking? How much shrinkage did you guys get?

Perfect fit Summ3r!

That is a stiff bastard indeed. Fit looks great, even though I like type 3s to end slightly over the belt…

Great fit summ …is that a samurai sweatshirt?

[summ3rhays]

Thanks everyone.

No theorocks, it's an old Nudie sweat. My jacket wasn't 100% dry and I didn't want one of my favorite FH shirts turning blue.

Looks perfect IMO.

Agreed! Looks great Chewie

[summ3rhays]

Second soak and I think the fit is as good as it gets.  The buttons still own me.  Fingers are sore and look like I've been squashing smurfs for fun.

That's a PERFECT fit mate

[superfuzz]

Great fit! Good luck with the buttons.
