      Soon? Nope.  Possibly next FW…...

      That's about "as soon as it gets", considering it is a winter jacket 😃
      Thanks, G!

      Use it or lose it.

        It is finally chilly enough here for a UHF (IHSH 192) and this warm jacket when riding my bike!!! Yay!

        The journey is the objective.

            It's been in the high 80's and low 90's F in Nashville this week. Almost had a heat stroke just thinking of wearing mine right now ha. Picked it up last fall, though, and don't think any other single IH piece got more wear the whole season.

            Wants List:
            IHSH-20-Red, XL
            IHSH-208-Indigo Kersey, L-XL
            IHSH-254-Grey Kersey, L-XL
            IHSW-45 Black, M
            IH-526SV 21oz type III, 38 or 40
            IH-777S-SB size 32
            IH-777S-142 size 31 or 32

              I am having a hard time deciding on size and am hoping for some helpful hints. I am usually the same size as Olly when looking for a snug fit, this is also true for the IHJ-75 which I own in a size M. That would point to an L here but based on the measurements, this one probably would work in size M as I am thinking to be using it for layering. What do you think?

                I take XL in shirts and L in most IH jackets, including this. Feel like it fits very well and is at that sweet spot where I can layer under or over it.

                  Thank you! For most shirts I am a size L, a few I have in XL. Being between sizes, I might end up getting two and sending one back. :-\

                    I understand the issue. I feel like if you want UHF’s and hoodies under you may me better with an L.

                    Arm and body length may be an issue with an M also, depending on body shape.  I’m relatively short for my weight (180cm/98kg), and have T-Rex arms, so if you are tall/long in the arm then an M may not work.

                      I'm typically an L in IH shirts, occasionally an XL.  I wear an L in this jacket.  Typically I only wear a t-shirt under it, because it's very rarely cold enough here (South Coast, UK), to need more….

                          Crappy pic but I just slung mine on for a trip to the shops. This is over a single layer sweater.

                            Much appreciated! Based on length, L should be the right choice.

                            It took me a moment to gather what you meant by T Rex arms, but that led me to an article that suggests that 120 years of research were needed to determine the purpose of T. rex's arms 🙂

                              Sorry… gorrilla’s vs. T-rex’s. The terms were established a number of years back during a discussion of UHF arm length [emoji28]

                              Thanks for the article though. I’ll lower the tone by leaving this here:

                                      Quick query for the IH crew.

                                      Is that jacket as thick as the IHV-44?

                                      Cheers

                                        Pretty similar, but the 44 is ever so slightly thicker

                                          [mention]JoshC [/mention] regarding the sizing changes, was the general trend larger than previous runs? I have a S from a couple years ago that’s a bit tight under the arms. Had been considering replacing with a M.

                                          Are changes slight enough to just size up and be good, or should I break out the measuring tape?

                                            @benniejackson If I remember rightly, some of the lengths were bigger in some sizes, but not all, and some were smaller. The sleeves were shorter, and the body width was pretty consistent across the new and old measurements. I would break out the measuring tape to be 100%. If the size small is a bit tight under the arms, I would consider the medium. Having a bit of extra room isn't a bad thing. You have the option to layer it up.
