IHW-13-BLK - Black Selvedge Melton Wool M65 Field Jacket

@Giles:

They came in too late in the year really.  Haraki offered to take them back off us because of that, but we loved them so much, we kept them (and our fingers crossed)…...

I want one quite badly. I’d have to move some stuff to make space for it though. It’s in my plans for autumn.

Love this beast…

It’s a beautiful jacket. I’m actually amazed they haven’t sold quicker. Looks real good on you.

Thanks, man!
Feel absolutley bullet proof wearing it. A lifelong Winter companion for sure.

The one that got away…I changed my order midway from M to S and got too tight a fit in the chest. By that time, M was fully sold out 
Grey is nice but black is the one (for me) especially in this cut and fabric

@Dishelveled do you have a personal photographer that follows you around now 

[Dishelveled]

Yeah, she's a good sport, but def reluctant!  All cell phone shots.  I tell her to just snap away–most are way too far away and crap!  I'll get her whipped into shape soon enough, haha

This jacket is almost comically warm. This pic was taken before leaving my hotel at 7am this morning and I started overheating almost immediately in the 40degF weather.

[Manticore]

@peregrine:

Extremely pleased with this jacket. Looks killer and stays comfortably warm at -10 degrees half zipped. Don't miss out!

Hey @Alex and everyone else, you can thank @peregrine for my purchase on this one. I thought it looked awesome in all the fit pics, but I was prioritizing other stuff. Then, I saw this, and I couldn't let the last M go. This looks insane with the black jeans, so thanks for convincing me.

^^^BOOM now thats what im talking about

Cheers @cander49 and congrats on the pickup! It's an awesome coat, glad to have helped make a sale

I'm a little on the fence with the fit. It just seems a little big through the body (6'0", low 150s, size M), and this is even with l/s henley and 14 oz cpo underneath and a little cinching at the waist. I liked both grey and black and can't try the black in small, so I ordered a small in grey and will keep one of the two. Measurements on the grey I just put through are all definitely great with the possible exception of shoulders. We'll see.

dude that is about a good of a fit as you can ask for @cander49

[cander49]

Thanks, though I guess these don't quite show it as much as in person; it just seems like awfully big, especially through the back. Either way, I'll get the chance to try both before I decide on which to keep.

Agreed. I can't see any problems although if you want to wear it over one layer I guess it may be less fitted than it should be. I'd be concerned about losing length in a smaller size. Looks good imho.

[UnTucked]

Try pulling the drawstring just a bit… Not really cinching it, just a bit of a pull.....

[sabergirl]

I think it looks great, @cander49. M65s are traditionally pretty baggy, oversized coats, even though most of the modern ones that come out are sort of fitted.  This one looks trim, to me.  I think the S might be a little tight in shoulders, but especially length.

[Dishelveled]

Looks like a great fit to me.  I see your point on the very slight billowing of the back torso, but feel it's only a quibble because it's being scrutinized under the microscope of photos.
It'll be fun to see the look change with a small though–looking forward.
