    Thanks @Alex, I am looking forward to buying this jacket once available, just will let someone else experiment with re-coating first.

      The thing is, that this is not coated, the fabric is impregnated with oil before construction.

        Just got to wear my IHM-27-OLV for the first time this year! Woohoo! I know it's not quite identical to this new one, but it's close enough for me to feel like I can recommend this to people on the fence. UHF + M65 is a great combo for crisp fall mornings!

          What is the weight of the cotton - 12oz, 14oz, 17oz, ??  An earlier post stated lighter than sateen, but exactly how heavy is that?  Thanks!

                  Hey all, love this jacket, and I'm looking for some advice on fit.  I usually wear Large IH UHF.  I'd be wearing this jacket with a tshirt and a UHF underneath.  Is large going to do it for me, or would it make more sense to move up to an XL?  Thoughts?

                    Large for sure. I’m an XL in shirts and would wear large in this.

                        Very happy with this purchase, size large.

                          I have the black sateen, so I had no intention of purchasing this one. Then I tried it on…and was unable to convince myself it wasn't worth adding this one as well. I love the weight, it's a bit lighter than the sateen, and I find the fit really works well for me. I'm usually a XXXL in the UHF, and a XXL in any of the jackets - this one was similar to the other coats as the XXL fit me perfectly.

                          Not sure I'll be able to keep a straight face when the wife looks at it and says "Is that new?..."

                                This I picked up at Sacred Dog / Berlin. I did size up from L to XL, to have some space for an UHF or a pullover.
                                The yarn is oiled before weaving. The fabric feels normal, not at all like a subsequently waxed fabric.
                                Great stuff, Feel protected …  😎
                                Many thanks to Shane for the patient advice.

                                  What are your general measurements? Waffling between an XL and a XXL and it'd be helpful to see where you're at being happy with the XL you got. Thanks!

                                    I waffle between L and XL, L in denim shirts, XL in UHFs.
                                    I tried on the deck jacket, I would also prefer XL.

                                        I'm XXL in most shirts work and western , some western have to go XXXL as some are just smaller.
                                        Tried to XL in this length etc was fine but felt like a straight jacket around the upper chest , have the XXL coming today. Another really nice piece in the flesh that pics again hard to capture the subtle details of this beauty.

                                          @John:

                                          What is the weight of the cotton - 12oz, 14oz, 17oz, ??  An earlier post stated lighter than sateen, but exactly how heavy is that?  Thanks!

                                          Also curious about this, in addition to the weight of the IHM-27 sateen.
