    I think your fit looks good, @ton312. How does it feel buttoned up?

      I have played and prodded and poked mine for awhile now.  Tried it on with different layering combos.  I also measured everything myself based on the Iron Heart “How to measure video”.  Most of the measurements are close to the website measurements, except shoulders and waist.

      I finally decided that if all measurements were just a bit smaller, it would fit me better (it already fits me good).  Plus, I figured maybe others could maybe benefit from my data, so here you go!

      So, I machine washed in hot water, medium spin, and machine dried on medium heat.  Inside out for all of it, buttoned.  Took out of dryer, turned right side out.  Inside is dry, outside still a little damp.  I measured again,  all measurements below.  I am currently  wearing it, while still a little damp, under a fan full blast, to set my creases.  All measurements are in Inches.

      Web - Actual - Post Wash/Dry

      Shoulder: 18.6 - 19.25 - 18.6
      Length: 26.8 - 26.75 - 26.25
      Chest(P2P): 23.3 - 23.5 - 22.5
      Waist: 22 - 21 - 20.5
      Opening: 21.2 - 21.5 - 21
      Sleeve: 28.1 - 28.25 - 27.25
      Sleeve Opening: 4.7 - 5 - 4.9

      I really expected the length to shrink more than it did, glad it didn't. I am happy with the final fit, it is now somewhere between an XL and a L, which is perfect. Hopefully someone out there will find this data helpful if they are thinking of doing the same. 
      Disclaimer These were my results, there are far too many variables to guarentee someone else would have the same outcome, plus it is now unreturnable.

        I think also your fit is good. If I compare with your buttoned up black 101 I would say almost the same fit.
        I compared especially sleeves and shoulders.
        Moreover it is a fall/winter jacket maybe should have bit room for layering.

          It just feels one size too large overall. I'm also inclined to believe this denim is a bit more prone to stretch than my others, which would exacerbate the sizing woes.  I'm heartbroken b/c I have waited for this to drop for  what seems like forever. I'm praying that somebody returns a large. I know it's a long shot.  I'm thankful for the IH return policy and the staff. As usual, Adam has been very helpful. I hate to return things but at this price, for me anyway, it has to be perfect.

            A restock is likely, Tom is looking for alternative linings at the moment…..

              Harris Tweed in Scottish pattern or worsted wool would be killer!

                @The_Bourbon_Denim_Guy has me second guessing my return now… haven't bought that label yet.

                  Comfort is paramount, for me, and a huge part of that is how a piece feels. You did the right thing if it was going to bug you, @ton312.

                  Good news on the re-run. I’ve a feeling this will be added to the “ones that got away”.

                    I second this. It looks good to me, and could be a useful layer piece. It does boil down to your personal preference though.

                      I’m certain I could layer under a large as well. But wouldn’t have nearly the excess material without a layer underneath. I’ll just keep refreshing the page with hopes a L has been returned. LOL. It could happen!

                          Using my fav UHF to break in the jacket for a little more room, like I did for my OD. The only parts that fit snug are the stitching around my armpits(but only when both arms are far forward) and my fat guy. I plan on losing my gut eventually, till I lose some, won't be buttoning it up ha.

                                Just dropped mine off at UPS. All that remains is a slow rolling tear, quivering lip and the hope for what could have been…LOL. On the plus side, if you were hoping to acquire an XL...take note, one will be available soon.

                                    That looks great, Bourbon.  Nice and trim, and the sleeves have wrinkled up nicely.  Result!

                                          Good news.  We will be doing a re-run.  Because of the 18oz denim availability, we're probably looking at a release date of late March….Start saving  🙂 🙂

                                          We will be using this blanket liner on V2.....

                                          Not my nails….
