        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.

              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. 🙂

                    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.

                        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.

                              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.

                                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.

                                  I second everyone else here @cander49 it looks great man.

                                  @Dishelveled @Manticore your photos are making me want this thing and I just got the IHM-15 lol. You know this is a totally different beast though, surely I can justify it to myself lol.

                                  What would Jesus wear?

                                    @cander49 I think the fit looks spot on. As others have already stated, there's the possibility you'll lose some length in the body and especially the sleeves if you sized down. But, I guess it depends on whether or not you want a more fitted look/feel or if you want to layer.

                                      Different beasts indeed–@madmoses

                                      Love em both for their different roles:

                                      The deck jacket shows way more casual and is considerably less warm.

                                      The wool m65 is beastly warm and elevates boots and jeans to a 'smarter' look.

                                      My two favorite warm IH jackets (sorry ihw-10) and feel both are indispensable to my Winter line-up.

                                      Edit: I don't own the IHM-15 (Deck Half Coat) but the IHM-14.  I've read the 15 is substantially warmer than the 14.

                                        Even if the IHM-15 is similar warmth, I love the IHW-13 for the "smart" look as you say!

                                        I'm going to add it to my list! But first, the IHJ-69! 😎 lol

                                          Here's a small grey with a 14 oz cpo (ie a legitimately thick layer) underneath. First, I'm surprised that I prefer the grey color. Second, I prefer this fit. It's absolutely as slim as I can go, but I think it's better. Cut through the body is dead on what I want.

                                            Nice fit too @cander49

                                            I don't know wich one i like better… small looks a tad small too me, on the short side and don't looks like you'll have room for layering. Does it gives enough room for mobility? I often have the same problem as you, too much room in the back but otherwise a pretty nice fit.  I think i'd prefer the medium and would try to use the drawstrings...

                                            When my time comes I want to be buried face down. That way whoever doesn’t like me can kiss my ass.
