Snagged one! Ordered an XXXL for the first time. I'm usually an XXL but the shoulder measurements were pretty slim on this one.
I was going to size up too but ended up sticking with my usual large and hoping for a p2p of over 22”. My concern with an XL was with sleeve length and overall length. I don’t think I could have gotten the shrink I would have needed to make it work. We’ll see how the L works.

I hear ya. I'm relatively tall. 6'4" so most of the other measurements on the XXXL look good. I told the guys to find me one with a shoulder 19.5 to 20inches. Can't wait for this one to come in! Really digging the pearl snaps on this one.

@Griffwald Sounds like you’ll be golden. Love the snaps too. Now the wait begins

Just out of curiosity - what's the reason for the differences in size between UHFs? Why wouldn't you always use the same cutting patterns? ???

They do. But these are not cut by CNC and are sewn together by real people. So differences with iterations occur.
Even in mass production clothing there are differences between units, The Gap just doesn’t post detailed measurements that expose it.

I have 6 UHF , all size L .
So the difference are not significant in my opinion.
-
Snagged one in Size M. The blue and brown combination with micro check pattern is something that I could not resist. Waiting for the delivery.

^ So is the shoulder measurements on the smaller size for you or how do you mean it?
-
@the246guy The XXL shoulder measurements are too small. The chart says 18.9 which scares me a bit.

We do use the same pattern. But different weaves and even different dyes make each fabric behave totally differently. Celebrate it. We are not the only company that has variations in what look like the same thing, but we are one of the only few (maybe the only one), that publish individual measurements, not a general all tag size X measure Y.

This has absolutely spoiled me and I don’t think I could ever go back to the sizing model of other makers.

…and will work with us (the customers) on special requests regarding sizing. Need a 1/4” or inch somewhere and they will try to find it. Email the crew: shop@ironheart.co.uk and they do their best to try and accommodate special requests!!

is one of the reasons I am hooked on IH. Studying size charts before making a purchase is half the fun and being able to get clothes that fit just right rather than 4 generic sizes is what more companies should be doing.

Ironheart has totally changed my thinking on how I buy clothing. In that now, I know my measurements and what that means in terms of how I like my shirts and pants to fit. So now I have a set range of numbers I try to hit for all the measurements usually, but I know how unrealistic that is so there’s fudge room.
It’s left me with shirts in Xl, XXL and XXXL But they all fit pretty much the same.
