              @Appfaff Adam, so glad one of these made its way to you. I can assure you from experience, it was worth the wait. This thing is in a league of its own. The details are perfection and too many to list!

              From the pic above, the fit looks killer! Please post some more when you get a chance so we can all ogle over your new favorite rugged gear  😎

              You won’t be satisfied until you wear Iron Heart.

                            I think even the toughest denim jacket will appear like a child's play after wearing a heavy horsehide jacket.

                                    @Giles - what type of hangers do you guys use for these?  Even my wooden “jacket” hangers are flexing more than I care to test.

                                      how heavy is the jacket? are you worried that the hanger is too short and will leave dimples in the shoulders?

                                        @Appfaff that fit is spot on and if you think you love that jacket now…you just wait because it only gets better!

                                        When I got this jacket and some other heavy weight outwear, I realized I had to step up my hanger game.

                                        These are what I got off Amazon to start with and they have been perfect. I really like the wide shoulders which help to minimize some of the shoulder creasing when these are hanging for a longer period of time. There may be some better options in terms of brands, but these have done the job fantastically for me.

                                        They were like $40 for 6 I think, but for me it was well worth the cost.

                                          @Dstauffer I like the look of those hangers. I use plain wooden hangers like the one @Appfaff has pictured. I think I bought mine from Ikea or something. They're good for shirts but for heavier items like jackets I do on occasion experience the shoulder dimpling because they're not wide enough.

                                            Thanks Dan, i got an amazing GC for xmas, so I’ll snag some - they will be great for my TypeIIIs too.

                                            This thing is so heavy, I’m afraid it will snap my hangers. I use the skin hangers for my jeans and about once a month I come home to a pair of 23oz lying in the floor in agony and the broken hanger nearby [emoji23]
