      @Raster a bit of sizing context…I'm ~6'2 205 lbs for reference. I usually buy XXL IH tops.

      In the hoody, the XXL is quite baggy. Sleeves come down to about 2 inches from the ends of my fingers (completely cover palms). Sometimes I fold the cuffs in half to correct this. Plenty of room for layering in all dimensions over all but the thickest of undergarments. Works fine as an outer layer but honestly would probably prefer one size down to XL for mid-layer applications.

      In this crewneck, the XXL is ~TTS for a trim fit. Sleeve length is spot on. There is a bit of room in the chest. Could stand layers there, but they would get annoying in the arms/shoulders if thick. A t-shirt under is just right.

        Thanks very much - I think these sizing stories and comparisons to other Iron Heart pieces are super useful. I know I always spend some time looking back through the thread on anything I’m interested in picking up. Measurements are of course useful, but if you don’t own something from that “style” yet, having context from other people is really useful. Thanks guys!

        Sounds like I’m about the same size as you @68degreesorless - I actually ended up ordering the Olive in XXL on the weekend and it should arrive tomorrow. I figured that if it ended up being a bit “baggy”, I’d be OK with that. However, based on your experience, it could well be spot on!

          So, to add an epilogue to my sizing adventure, I received the XXL and it’s great. A bit more relaxed fitting than my XXL UHF western shirts or the XL 11oz heavy tees that I have, but still a trim fit. It’s a bit long in the body, but it’s super comfortable. The fabric is just slightly stretchy too, which is nice. Good choice and a great pickup. Thanks everyone for your advice!

                I've come to believe @Pipeboss713 is on some type of IH subscription service.

                Anytime anything new comes out, dude is posting a pic wearing the item. Literally EVERY SINGLE TIME.

                The boys at IH have his sizes and CC on file and simply send it out…lol

                        thanks for all sizing advice offered thus far. Specifically, would XXL lend itself to going over a button down collar shirt, or are the sleeves too narrow? thanks in advance for any help...

                          The sleeves are slim for sure, especially up at the wrist which are I believe are meant to be tight to keep out wind… I’d say this is much more of a base layer than an over layer. T-shirt underneath at most, imho. Feels really nice against the skin without though. Super comfy.

                              @Giles said in Iron Heart Products - What do you think we should make?:

                              Our medium/long-term goal is to offer all iterations of sweats (crew neck, pullover hoody, zippered pullover and stand-up collar) in all colours….

                                        I just picked up an XXL in black. I pretty much go 1 to 2 sizes up from my usual western sizes in everything IH, YMMV.
                                        I’m 6’2” and 185.

                                        The fit is trim which I like. This one has higher armholes (at least they feel that way to me) compared to the zip sweaters. I can wear a tee under this without too much bunching. The arms are JUST long enough for my freakishly long arms lol. I like that the body is cut longer as well.

                                        The fabric is what you’d expect, luxuriously tough 🙂

                                        Great overall. I will get the olive when it’s back in stock.
