I had a chance to try this one on.  I would definitely recommend sizing up one from your normal IH shirt size.

How warm is this vs the 75?  I was thinking of the 75 until I saw this.

[Giles]

Probably not quite as warm…...

Thanks - around what temperature would you be comfortable in this over a t shirt?

[Giles]

I have no idea sorry.  It never gets so cold here that I need anything more than a T under it, and my ability to gauge temperature amounts to, if water freezes, it's zero C or below, if water boils it's about 100C or above - everything in between is a mystery…..

Right now I have a spread of Iron Heart shirts in XL to XXXL.  But Im consistent with XXL in UHF.  Do you think I should go XXXL in this parka? I know its opinions and recommendations at this point but they are appreciated.  I would mainly wear the jacket with a light undershirt and some IH long sleep top, denim or UHF

[DrPat]

Definitely 3xl.  4xl if you want a looser fit or will use it for athletic activities.

thanks for this info.  im about to obliterate my credit card. i asked similar question for the new vest.  stick to UHF?

[DrPat]

For the vest I would recommend the uhf size.

Super happy and satisfied of the Street Parka;
I had the chance to test it under the rain and the outer fabric is impressively water repellent.

Besides, the hood is extraordinarily comfortable: it not only covers head and face from cold and rain, but it's self supporting, so it doesn't weight on the top of your head.
You can effortlessly pivot left and right or swivel up and down your head inside it, even wearing a cap.
The hood structure and opening is the Street Parka's killer feature, IMHO

Also, the Vest IHV-44-BLK layers perfectly lengthwise under the parka for maximum heat protection.

Looks great!

I have this jacket and it's very nice.
Bought the medium but probably should have gone with at least a large, which is my go to UHF size.
The medium kind of fits until I move around.
Just my 2-cents.

[Giles]

Yep, I sized up

[Fades for future]

Maybe someone can help me out... Thinking about sizing and how warm this jacket is

@Fades-for-future look at my post above.
I’m 6.3 and purchased and L.
I also wear an L on the N1.
I like snug fitting jackets and the street parka in that size fits me like a glove.

Warm wise I’d say it a medium high shell. I can wear it comfortably a -5°C layering it over a UHF or a sweater.
It’s not puffy, but primaloft is light and warm.
The hood is super warm and very comfortable.
Also, the collar is quite high and when zipped is extremely windproof.
