            Well shit… you guys in the size down club were right.  I received my XL today and it's too big 😞  And of course the Larges are gone now.  Dammit all to hell.

            @Giles any chance to.get another Large or should I just get one from one of the vendors?  Kick ass jacket though.

                I'd just get one from SE or Mild Blend. Sorry to hear your size didnt work out. Were you swimming in the xl?

                  I wonder if the denim would shrink a little bit after a hot rinse?

                    It’s overdyed so it won’t. Overdying involves a very hot rinse, and then some. It takes all the shrinkage out of a fabric.

                              In the chest and length, yes.  Shoulders and arms were about perfect….fitted in a sense, so I'm almost thinking that sizing down to L might make it too tight in the shoulders and arms but I think I'm going to give it a shot anyways.  And yeah I'll go the SE or MildBlend route.

                                I can't speak for anyone else but my ihm-20 is fitted for the most part. If I try to layer with a sweatshirt or flannel it's really tight, but with a t-shirt it's perfect. But, given the weight of the jacket I don't foresee needing to layer at all since I have no intention of wearing this as a winter jacket. I plan on wearing this jacket with t-shirts or a henley. I'd say the same would be the case for you since you live in AZ.

                                When I looked at the measurements I knew a large wouldn't work for me because of body length, sleeve length and chest. I likely would've looked like a little kid wearing his dad's oversized jacket.

                                  I'm thinking that's exactly how a Large is going to fit me.  I'll pretty much only be able to wear a T shirt underneath which will be fine because the jacket does feel quite warm with the lining.  I do get cold very easily though.  Combination of being a Phx native and low body fat I think.  High is 57 today and that's easily UHR and UHF weather for me.

                                    I wore mine a couple weeks back when it was 40 out. I had a sweatshirt underneath and it was perfectly warm. I think this jacket is best suited for temps between 40-60. I will admit that I was concerned about the fit when I first bought it, but I suspect that it'll loosen up over time. I'm pretty happy with it and glad I snagged one.

                                    I've noticed that M65's seem to be the popular item this Spring. I saw that Momotaro and 3sixteen/Alpha Industries just put one out. Of course, i'm biased and think the IH M65 beats them all in terms of quality.

                                        This one is an interesting case.  I was wary on the other side… that I'd go TTS and it might be too loose.  But I am large in the shoulders, arms area -- and had I sized down, I wouldn't be able to raise my arms.  For reference, I fit XXL (or 3XL) in shirts, so I went with the XXL for the M-20.

                                        It was 60 out this morning, so I wore a cord shirt (the IHSH-184) over a T-shirt and the M-20 and the fit was snug.  While it is a bit long in the sleeve (maybe half an inch), had I gone XL, the arms would have fit like sausage casings.

                                        Granted, it fits just fine with just a Tee underneath, but it'd be a bit less fitted in that mode.  Can't have it all.

                                        I truly think the fit on this one is very specific to body type.  Slimmer might be able to size down... .stockier might want to stick TTS.

                                        Just my cents....

                                          That's what I'm worried about with going a size down and getting the Large…not being able to move my arms around much and being way too tight in that area.  The arm/shoulder area was very tailored and fitted on the XL and when I tried moving my arms up I could do it but I felt a slight restriction in movement but nothing too crazy.  We shall see.

                                            My range of motion is limited even when wearing a t-shirt, but i'm not doing manual labor or anything that would require me to lift or move my arms around. The one thing I do to check for mobility is that when I have a shirt or jacket buttoned up I extend my chest outwards and or i'll pull at the front to see how much space there is between my chest and the fabric. If I have a fist's length of space then i'm usually fine.

                                            Agree with @Midgegante and that body type will play a part in how the jacket will fit you. I'm fairly average in height/weight, so not overweight but not skinny either. I mentioned this before but I also tend to rely on the fit data provided by IHUK, namely, what size @Giles wears and what size @Sam wears. Giles, Sam and Adam all sized down on the IHM-20 so if they sized down from their usual size then I knew I had to size down as well. Not going to be true for every person but for me it was.
