          Just got mine the other day. By far my favorite IH item to date and as usual the crew was exceedingly helpful in getting the right fit. I’ve been waiting for what seems like an eternity for it to restock. Glad I pulled the trigger!

            @ton312 That looks amazing. What size did you go for? Do you mind me asking your height/weight/usual Iron Heart size? Cheers.

              This is a size 44” and it’s trim but fits like my other size 42” shown below. I am 5’11, 210lbs. I wear my type III’s snug.

                Thanks @ton312

                That makes sense that you sized up with the IH-526Lod. I'm a Large in the IH-526PJ so I think I'll be an XL in this jacket. I've been studying the measurements closely and I'm pretty sure that's the right size for me. I'm 5'10" and 175lb.

                  @going_to_battle I think that sounds right. I’d also add this is my absolute favorite IH piece. It’s a phenomenal jacket.

                    Those are my dimensions and weight and I agree with you. I originally bought the L but it's a bit tight. Perfect over a T, can't button it over anything else.  The XL looks great on a T and allows me to layer with a UHF.

                    Blanket-line all the things!!!

                      Cracking fits on all three jackets, Tom312! Your OD seems already faded/broken in (any tips to speeding up that process?) And which model is your indigo type III?

                      I copped the xl as this run sewed/shrunk up smaller for sure. These are selling fast like wild fire!

                          Looks like the OG IH-526j to me, but I could be wrong.

                          EDIT: Scratch that, I was wrong, but only a little bit. It is the updated IH-526pj (hand warmers and an extra inch in length).

                                  That's a really nice fit, @Bums_Fan - it looks spot on.

                                  I bought this jacket last week while I had the chance. They were selling out fast. I'm not surprised, as this jacket is amazing - you won't find a better type III jacket, in my opinion.

                                  I've owned a few different Iron Heart type III jackets and therefore wanted to share my thoughts, in case it helps anyone else considering buying one:

                                  • These definitely come up small. I usually wear a L in Iron Heart shirts and jackets. However, having studied the measurements, it was clear that I would need an XL in this jacket, but even that is slightly on the small side. I am 5'10" and 170lb. I can do up all the buttons but it's very snug around the waist (as it should be). I don't intend to do it up very often.

                                  • The XL is perfect for me if I wear it over just a t-shirt. However, it's a bit of a squeeze if I wear it over a hoodie or UHF, especially in the shoulders, even if I wear it undone. Therefore, if you want to wear it over layers, you'll definitely want to consider sizing up even further (i.e. two sizes bigger than your normal IH shirt size). I should add, although the jacket has significant heft, it's not very warm worn over just a t-shirt. So think carefully about when/where/why you want to wear a type III jacket.

                                  • Meanwhile, the arms (sleeves) are relatively short compared to other Iron Heart type IIIs, at least in my experience (it's worth using the IH measurements comparison tool if this is likely to be an issue for you). Thankfully I have short arms so this isn't a major problem, but might be for some.

                                  • The material is crazy. It literally creaks when I move! I really like this about it, but my wife is less of a fan.

                                  • I was curious what the colour would be like in person. What surprised me (in a good way) is that the jacket has an almost 'used' or 'vintage' look right out of the bag. I expect it will age beautifully.

                                  • The left-hand twill denim gives it a raised texture, almost like corduroy but much stiffer, at least initially.

                                  • The delivery on this jacket was first class, literally. I ordered it at 11am and received it within 24 hours. I am in the UK but, even so, that's impressive.

                                  I'll try to post some fit pics when I have more time.

                                    Thank you @Jett129 and @going_to_battle .  It really is a great jacket.  I ended up going to with an XXL (44).  I am normally an XL in IH shirts, sometimes XXL in UHFs.  I intend to wear this over t-shirt in most cases, but I have tried it on over a couple of my denim shirts and it is doable.  I haven't tried it on over an UHF yet.  I suspect it will be a little tight.

                                            That looks like a great fit and definitely goes well with the whipcord cargos. The jacket is really compatible with grey marl t-shirts and sweaters by the way, as you just proved.
