@Brock next time you're there can you ask Mike for a pair of the male snaps and I will pay you to mail them to me? I asked him amd I think he forgot.

I want to make the cuffs on my Wills smaller.

Brock

Yes! Just 2 of the male pieces

Shoveling a couple feet of snow in Ship John and Iron Heart gear. The best combo.

That's awesome! Where are you that you've got so much snow?

Northern Arizona!

I thought I saw you say you were from there. I just didn't realize it snowed anywhere in Arizona!

Got also my XXL Long version of Wills Tan jacket. Mixed feelings about size. Great fit around chest, too baggy on belly part. In offline shop I would have taken XL maybe. When deciding about XL and XXL before ordering I considered these main factors:

saw recommendation on forums to size down from IH. (My IH jackets shirts are XXXL).
thought 24oz material is too thick, hence no problem with measurments for XXL.

I'm also mixed on the fit. I got a medium (usually take a large on IH UHF), and it fits great over a shirt or thermal. It's a wee tight over a sweater or UHF, mostly in the shoulders. So, I placed an order for a size large. We'll see how that one fits. I'm concerned that the sleeves might be a bit long.

I ordered a medium based on the Kuroki denim jacket that I bought from them. The difference is that I wear that Kuroki jacket over a T-shirt often. Wearing the Wills over a T is a different story, as it definitely feels like a layering piece.

I might end up keeping both. One for layering and one for not. Will decide once the large arrives.

Cold (not oppressively hot) enough to bust out the Wills:

Has anyone here ordered the brown wills?? Looks like it’s gonna be Ace!

I don’t think they’ve taken orders for it yet,unless I missed it. Can’t get a handle on what shade of brown it is,based on the pictures.

Paul9221

Yeah, I think that this is the first month that it will be available.

Brown trucker hats with that cool SJ logo launching mid-month! Pumped for that!

Brock

You’re right. They take orders the 15th.

Does 24OZ on the fabric sound right?

@Jett129:

It's armor! The thickest fabric of anything that I own. The fact that it's waxed probably adds to it.

@Jett129:

Yes, it's 24oz for sure. 18 before waxing. It's quite thick.

@hm1944 I currently wear an XXL Long. I used to have an XL Long but sold it because it was too tight in the shoulders and not really comfortable to wear. It takes a while for the fabric to settle and drape so maybe just wear it for a while?

Thank you Palmer. I think in my head I expected maybe more body fit like it is with IH Type III jackets, but this type of jacket has another philosophy (working chore jacket). I am just thinking loud and yes this jacket is very well built and robust. Will start wearing and see how it developes.
