Suffice to say, I never knew I needed this until recently. Credit to @Filthy and his review and praises.

Hoping to contribute to this thread soon…

@J-IV nice. Trust me… You will NOT be disappointed

Giving my sleeves a boil before I iron and starch them on the inside.

[steelworker]

looking for what you get out of that, @Filthy

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

Yes, I will let you know tomorrow after it dries. The cuffs were exactly 5 inches and the length was 26. I am purposely not soaking near the armpit area. I want that area as wide as possible.

@Filthy:

as wide as possible

..so as to accommodate the guns.

P.S. I love your mad scientist shrinkage experiments

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

@steelworker I got just under and inch of shrink from 26 to 25.3 and the cuff shrink ¾ of an inch..

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

I was thinking since they did shrink. It'd be prudent to soak 'em again. Some I reboiled the water from last night and am soaking them again.

[steelworker]

More than I thought you'd get. Thank you, Mike!

@ROman:

Great look there @dinobarnesberlin .

Thanks @ROman –- these jackets are perfect for spring weather.

@Filthy –jacket came out really good.-The combs look pretty set now.
Glad the boil job worked out for you, and really good to know in case I want to try it down the road at some point.

Can anyone comment on the comparative weight/warmth/breathability of this versus one of the 14oz denim varietals?

@Chain$titch IHJ-69 (same corduroy fabric as the 82) vs. IH-526J-142 (14 oz denim), both in XL: corduroy 765g, denim 1115g; the corduroy being more breathable, the denim with its denser weave a little warmer, at least here where we have a lot of wind. Both wonderful jackets.

That's really interesting, thanks for sharing, @endo

Based on your measurements, if the jackets have the same construction, buttons, etc, then the corduroy is likely between 9 and 10 oz.
