      Thank you for confirming this.  🙂

      I took an L in the black one (take XL in UHFs) and it fits perfectly, with ample room for layering underneath.

      Best purchase I've made for a while  😎

      +1
      My UHF usual size is XL, but I wear the M65 in L.
      I've still room left to layer the Primaloft vest under the jacket (L).

      Love them both 🙂

      Excellent solution. I'm all about layering the fannel and the primaloft vest underneath.

      On another note, does the measurement of jacket length start from the top collar, or is it from beneath the collar down to the bottom back?

          I got mine today and I love it…mostly. Fits great in the shoulders and chest, ample space in the stomach. But I don’t know if I will be able to keep it, the armpits and top bicep are kinda tight. I’m gonna wear it when weather allows to try it out, but the tight areas are very tight with a UHF, it will make layering a challenge.

              From my UHF size, yeah. But I got the same size N1 and it fits like a dream. I feel like if I sized up on the M65 it would be too big everywhere else.

                Has anyone gotten any shrink out of their M65?  Would like to shrink it some but with how tightly woven the cotton sateen is, questioning if I should even bother with a warm wash and tumble dry.  Did not know if this kind of treatment would yield any results or worse; if this would damage it in any way.

                  Recently washed at 30C for the first time. A bit of shrinkage I think, and the look and feel is greatly improved (a more crumpled and worn look that suits that kind of jacket).

                      Just a quick wash with 30C and no spin, then line dry. Mind you: not deliberately trying to shrink the jacket (although it is on the large side for me with some recent weight loss).

                        Hello, I recently got mine and am very happy with the purchase (I am usually an L for other brands, decided to take the XL here since the L felt to small around the chest).

                        One quick question, I am not a big fan of labeling. It is very subtle here, but I am still contemplating to remove the "Iron Heart" label on the left pocket. Did anybody try this in the past? How does it look, will one still see the stitching holes afterwards? Thanks and best wishes

                          You can't undo the stitching, it forms part of the construction of the pocket.  You need to cut the label in half between the 2 rows of stitching and then deconstruct the label, it carries risks, I screwed up a customer's shirt once when he asked me to do it..

                          Or get a black Sharpie…

                                  Hello Guys
                                  I ordered the last piece today on badweathercafe and now after reading these messages I am in doubt about size. My height is 190 cm and my weight is 100kg. and my Chest is 120 cm.
                                  All that remained was the size xxl and I ordered it, does anyone have similar build and what size fitted him?
                                  I know I can bring it back but xl I can't find any more anywhere in Europe

                                    The jacket has arrived, I think the size is good, the only thing that the sleeves could be 1-2 cm shorter.
                                    I'm going to put in a few pictures to make it easier to navigate the sizes. I'm going to put in a few pictures to make it easier to navigate the sizes. This is the XXL.

                                        Just saw the email announcement that these are going to be restocked next week. Is sizing coming in consistent with previous years? I've been thinking about grabbing one of these jackets for years, but I've always felt uneasy about actually committing to an XS (I wear a small in the N1, the corduroy Type III, and work shirts, so it seems like XS would be the answer here). Would be helpful to understand if there's something different about these.

                                          @Napa-Transplant anecdotal, but I had the similar thoughts when ordering my black one. Size chart pointed towards a medium, but all my other IH gear is large..

                                          Went for a large in the end, and was happy with the fit. Great as a winter coat with a couple of layers underneath, but feels a little too roomy with just a t shirt.

                                          Medium probably would've looked better aesthetically, but all things considered I'm glad I opted for the large, as it's more practical in the occasions I'm likely to want to wear this jacket.

                                          I'll probably grab the olive one in medium someday anyway though, best of both worlds 😆
