      Thanks @Alex_24 , @dinobarnesberlin

      This is my 2nd of these Jacket. This one is a bit shorter in length, sleeve and slimmer in the Arms. Which makes a lot difference to my first one.

        I just posed this question on the fb group but figure this is probably a better place. I noticed that Self Edge, in their latest restock announcement for this jacket said it is made from tea-core leather. I was surprised because after all the research I’d done on the 64 I’d never seen it written that it was tea-core!? It doesn’t really matter, but I would be pleasantly surprised to find out it was tea-core 😎 because I’ve wanted a tea-core jacket ever since I found out what it was 😉

          Yes, it is tea-core.  Haraki and co don't think that it is an important feature, so they did not mention it to us.  We became convinced that it was, so we asked the question, and they confirmed that it is tea-core.  Then we did fuck all about updating the products which I am more than a little pissed off about.  I am going to update the relevant products this morning.

          Edit - All updated

                  the sleeves will shorten up a bit with wear, they'll start to form creases and from the looks of it you'll have a perfect fit! very nice looking 😎

                    Hi folks,

                    I am in the process of figuring out which leather jacket to buy and I was considering the C3 but it might just be far too warm for the Dutch autumn/winter/early spring. The IHJ-64 would be a better choice I’m sure.

                    Maybey an odd question but could someone be able to post a picture being 187cm and 82kg wearing L?

                    I don’t have the oppertunity to try it on unfortunatly.

                    I can resist anything but temptation.

                            Love this coat, it’s one of my favourites out of my closet. The only complaint I have would be the cuffs, I have to unbutton them in order to get my hands through. They really should have a bit more room in the forearm to accommodate a wider cuff, this is the only coat I’ve ever had this issue with. Going by photos it looks like others have the same issue - wondering why they made it so tight like this?

                                I have to have the cuff buttons undone on every single Type III I have ever owned  (or tried on) - I have big hands.  But like @Kasi , I never button them up anyway.

                                The wider the cuff, the wider the arm, the less fitted the arm will look and the more flapping you will get on a bike.

                                  Is there a restock in the current schedule?

                                      Excellent - thanks!  I have this one in my FW21 budget and just waiting for my size to restock so I can get some break-in time in it prior to SS22.

                                          IH Team - Any chance a size xs would be released?  Or maybe something with a size small dimension similar to the IHSB-EXT-NAT?  Looking at the dimensions of the past release - the small ran a little big and the sleeves very long.  I have to do a half roll of my IH size small and xs type 3s with an inch less sleeve length and a considerably smaller shoulder dimension so I’m assuming the sleeve length on these is not going to work - unless the elbow creases that develop over time take up that much extra sleeve length.  Some advice appreciated.  Thanks!

                                            We could possibly make an XS next production run.  But we have literally just completed a run (which does not include an XS).  Sleeve length will reduce when the elbow creasing occurs, but I think it is likely to always be too long in the arms…..
