        Ok cool. I'll trying to figure out my sizing once the measurements are posted. Thanks G!

          I was wondering the same… I'm really paranoid about my sleeves being the right length. Seems to always be a major issue and not sure how much to compensate for once the creasing sets in. Really want to pull the trigger on one but just want to make sure it's right after dropping 2k on a himel I can't use anymore

          Oops just saw g posted it's the same as shirts. Still worried about sleeves though

            Tat, I sent you how to measure instructions and the first post says "Any size you want (within reason)…..", why are you worrying?

              Like I said, I'm worried about the crease bringing the sleeve to much, or sizing too long. I'm sure I'm over thinking it and worrying for no reason but I've just had bad luck with sleeves on jackets.. Feels like a curse.. Me and my monkey arms..

                Is that not the same issue for everyone?  The only difference is you start with longer sleeves.  If in doubt, size too long, it's easy to shorten….

                  Ahh… Did not know shortening was a possibility. In the past had spoke to another jacket maker who had told me sizing too long was not feasibly "fixable" when he questioned the length of my spec which in turn made me bail. I was fairly certain of my size but then started doubting my self.

                  Sorry to be a pain.

                          Tat, which himel is it and what size? Do you still have it? I have a friend who's been looking for a used himel..

                              Given you still have the Himel, working out arm length for the IHAL should not be too difficult…..

                                Wow i might need one of these in my life

                                How do these compare in sizing to the IH-9527J, I have a 44 which is pretty close to bang on for me.

                                  • We try to keep most of the more popular sizes in stock.  We can, of course, do other sizes to order, lead time will normally be 2 weeks or so.  Please contact us to discuss

                                  • NB: Please note that we only have size M (38) made and measured as yet.  Other sizes are being made at the moment and the sizing chart will be updated as soon as we have the other sizes to hand. “Model” (Giles) will wear size L (40).  Giles is 6" 2" with a 42" chest. 33" waist and weighs 190lbs

                                  So basically, I don't know, but it doesn't matter

                                          Perhaps you could link me to the measurement instructions, if they can be made to measure i probably should do so
