IHJ-110-BLK - 12oz Moleskin Modified Type III Jacket - Black

[Alex]

It’s the same weight as that used on the CPOs, but it’s technically a new fabric

Got it. Thanks

@Alex what am I missing? I have always seen 10oz listed for the CPO

from Self Edge:
"This black colored 100% cotton moleskin weighs approximately 10 ounces (per square yard) and is extremely windproof and warm. In areas of high wear Iron Heart have lined the moleskin with matching cotton twill, and have used heavy duty Iron Heart branded snaps on the placket, cuffs and chest pockets."

I seem to remember @neph93 saying somewhere that everyone’s a type III person. Does that mean if I don’t have a type III I’m not a person? Now, Reuben might be wrong and my logic might be flawed, but I thought I’d better play it safe before a wardrobe deficiency causes me to doubt my personhood 

This seemed to be a good entry point so I popped into R&H this afternoon and I’m now definitely a person

If you’re lucky you might get a pic when I get home.

Ontological crisis as marketing technique? I may me an evil genius…

Seriously though, well done. These are stunning.

I guess there are worse things to be, and maybe it’s in the mod job description

Definitely. A new departure for me but I’m happy.

In case it helps anyone, I went +1 on my normal IH work shirt size to allow for a shirt underneath.

@ARNC For your first foray into Type III's, you've done an excellent job!  Looks great.

[ARNC]

Thanks @Anesthetist @sabergirl @goosehd - I appreciate the positive comments from folks who know their onions!

[Graham]

Very jealous @ARNC Looks amazing!

[ARNC]

Thanks @Graham. Are you allowed one or are you holding out for something else?

Plus one here. I wish type III’s would fit me like that.

Oh hell it looks great. How many black jackets do I want? oh yeah , n+1 the Max Power solution

[ARNC]

Thanks @neph93 @steelworker. I sense that there may be more to come but for now I’m happy with this. I had to check my cupboard this morning to be sure that I actually did this

I'll be sitting this one out I am afraid  but living vicariously through you!

Feeling the pressure!  As you know where I live and can work out what size I went for, I’d better get it right (or invest in some security).

Just bought an IHJ-110 in black and I'm wondering how much shrinkage I should expect from a warm, gentle cycle wash and hang dry? Sleeves are a tad long and I could lose .5" on the shoulders. I know it says they're one washed for minimal shrinkage but I don't know what the real life results would be. I think this is the same moleskin used in the CPOs as well if anyone has those.

@turns31 The product descriptions are pretty accurate. You may get more out of it with higher temperature water/and or drying it in a dryer, but I would go with what was written.
