IH-101J-SR - 18oz Selvedge Denim Storm Rider Jacket - Indigo

[setandsetting]

Could you guys help me out with a fit check? I ordered an XXL, that was huge on me, so I went with XL. This is 2 sizes down from my 526Jod, which is XXXL. It's a little slim (about the same as my 526Jod), but that might be ok? Arms are slightly long but I think they'll break in okay. Body probably will to. I'm leaning towards keeper but I need help.

Not sure what you have on underneath it,looks a little snug around the mid section when closed. Is being able to wear a heavy shirt or some other layer of substance important? How does it look unbuttoned?

[setandsetting]

Just a t-shirt underneath. Can't fit a UHF, but a lighter flannel will fit.

The sleeve length has always been Kryptonite for me when it comes to IH denim jackets,and it looks like the sleeves are perfect on that one. Will you generally wear it buttoned up?

[setandsetting]

Yeah, I'd like to be able to properly button it. After giving it some more consideration, I think I might feel too much like a sausage in this due to beer gut.

And thanks Jett for giving me your honest opinion. I think you're right about the midsection.

I’d say it’s a tad too tight. I’ve one which after twenty or so wears hasn’t loosened, let along stretched, but as folks say it will soften.

My wife suggested we could go vegan and stop drinking so I could keep it.

Hahaha. I might have to do that if I eat any more pies.

Going vegan might help–but stopping drinking might be a bridge too far
Maybe just a little less would do it...at least you have a target.
That great Jacket!

Softened considerably, especially the arms, with some fading. Two months wear.

LIMITED RESTOCK

[setandsetting]

Hey guys I just ordered one of these and sent you a note. It looks like the the size chart was updated and the waist increased by .8" on the XL? If so that might be the room I needed…

[Graham]

@setandsetting I am afraid this was a glitch during the website change over. I have changed the chart on the product back to what it should be which is the same as the chart at the top of this thread. Sorry about the confusion and Jack is emailing you now to discuss your order. Thank you for spotting this!

[setandsetting]

Shucks! Thanks Graham and Jack.

[LeDuc_RW]

Any word on some restocks of the size medium?

[Giles]

No production run scheduled at the moment I am afraid…

[Richard]

Slowly wearing it in. LOL.

I love this jacket. Sleeves are way too long but that's the story of my life at 5'8" with a 48" chest.

Looks great with the tan pants and white tee. Just flip the cuffs on the sleeve.

Just an idea, you could dip both your sleeves in hot water, then put the jacket on and set the creases in the elbows.  Let dry.  This should shorten the overall length of the sleeves.
