      @Giles:

      @Jett129:

      Is the flagship 21OZ denim too heavy for a CPO?

      I've always really wanted something that was not that heavy, but still gnarly…..

      .      And the previous incarnation of the 177/178 definitely checked those boxes.

        If the IH-526Lod fits me perfectly in XXL, would you all recommend the same size in ISH-178?  The ISH-177?  Trying to decide between XL and XXL.  I'm 6'2, 190 lbs.

        Thanks so much!

          Very hard to say, jackets aren’t shirts, so it is a bit like comparing apples an oranges. It also depends how you wear your jacket and how you would like to wear your shirt. If you have any comparable shirts I would measure those to get a baseline.

          I can say this: I have the IHSH-178 in XL and it fits very well over a tee or henley. I have worn the IH-526L-OD tour jacket in XXL and it was big enough on me that I could wear it over a UHF or hoodie. If I wanted one to wear over a single layer I would size down to XL.

            Any update on the search for an alternative denim? Dying to recreate the look of the heading pic on the CPO section of the website!

                How feasible is it to shorten the sleeves an inch and a half without mucking up the shirt?  Thanks as always!

                  A skilled/specialist seamstress or tailor could do it. Plenty of opportunities to screw it up. But it is a shacket so I just flip them.

                    Not an admin. Not a mod. But the guy whose fits turn heads and whose name comes up when people ask, “how should this piece fit?” 🖕

                      Thanks!  Feels a little floppy and weird, but I do think it looks good.

                        I saw on the SS21 release date page that a IHSH-293 is coming. Is that the 178 replacement?

                                    Okay.  I’m not a patient person.

                                    Managed to find an unworn 178 and struck a deal.  The shirt is a beast.  A glorious beast. Buttoned up with a T - good to go. Unbuttoned with a thick thermal over a T - also good to go.

                                    And the overdyed buttons - good stuff.

                                        My son and I loved these,when he was growing up. Legend has it that whenever a new adventure would come out,whatever cheese Wallace was into,like Welsleydale,would then become impossible to find in the UK.

                                            Great news @Alex! Does this apply to the non-OD version too?
