    Definitely will!

    Also, the sleeves are almost 2 inches longer than the IHJ-82 (which I find to be a good length for me), does that mean these sleeves will be too long for me, or does there end up being some creasing around the elbows that shorten the sleeves a bit once worn?

            That is a really sharp looking jacket.  Well done crew!

            What size is Graham??

                  I don’t think there will be a lot of creasing. However, the IHJ-82 and this are very different jackets. As this is a winter jacket, I believe the intention is for the sleeve cuff to end half way up the hand so that it comes over gloves.  The IH M-65’s and pea coats are made this way too.

                      Ok, thanks Neph. Yeah, I wondered as the sleeves are quite a bit longer than the Pea Coat. I have an S in that and it fits me like a glove. Pea Coat S sleeve are 24.4, this in S is 26.2

                        Compare shoulder width with the IHW-18 and the pea coat. Shoulder width will play a role in how long the sleeves are. You may find the IHW-18 has narrower shoulders than the pea coat.

                              Based on the models' sizing, would the recommendation be to go one size down from the IHJ-82? The shoulders, opening and waist are closer on the L of the IHW-18 to the XL of the IHJ-82, but I'm not sure if that translates into more room underneath given this is a thicker jacket

                                I’d suggest an L in this if you an an XL in the J-82.

                                        Took my bush jacket out for the first test run yesterday. It has some interesting design features that are true to the “hunting jacket” genre.

                                        Sleeves are extra long, which allows you to pull your hand entirely inside the sleeve to keep warm if you aren’t wearing gloves.

                                        The fit allows room for extensive layering underneath if you need it in very cold weather. You can also button the collar fastener and pop the collar to keep the wind off your neck. If you plan to wear it with just one thin layer underneath you might want to size down from your normal IH size.

                                        With a couple warm layers underneath it should be able to handle single digit Fahrenheit temps, or with just a light shirt it could be worn into the 60s, as long as you aren’t moving around too much.

                                          Just got mine in Blue/Black. I was expecting a heavy weight jacket given the price. Lighter than I’d hoped but still a very well made piece.
