IHJ-85-NAV - Waterproof Harrington-Style Windbreaker Jacket - Navy
-
5'9" approx 185lb… deciding between L and XL... I wear XL in most IH shirts both western and workshirts...
Both fit ok... notable differences to me are that L is a tiny bit tight across the shoulders/chest when I cross my arms and the XL is noticably longer on me.
Leaning towards XL... opinions?

Same. The sleeve length seems better on the Large.

Bad news (not really in the context of what is going on in the world right now): fit was a little boxy for my liking so it will be going back to IHUK.
Good news: another small in navy will be available for someone else that wants to grab it.
Fabric and construction were top notch and everything I've come to expect from IH. The jacket will work really well as a light jacket for those looking for something to wear in the transitional months. I'm just really picky about fit.

This is why I asked… I don't think the cut looks very flattering for an athletic (golf) jacket. Bummed to hear I wasn't wrong.

Managed to pick up a Large in the navy. I have been lucky (quick) with my last couple of IH purchases. Really like this jacket, well executed, good cut that fits me nicely. Been wearing it mainly with plain waffle tops or sweatshirts. Pleased I snagged the navy as I have too many black jackets already. The red check lining works really well with the outer fabric. Super nice jacket, well chuffed.

Got any fit pics? This is a great jacket that is def my style but unfortunately not going to happen atm. I’d like to continue to live vicariously….

@Anesthetist Here are a few bad quality pictures. I am on a mandatory 14 day lockdown period in a hotel room in Norway prior to heading offshore to work. Best I could do with the phone camera and lighting.
Jacket is size large, layered with an IHTL 1501 also in large. I am 5ft 11" and weigh 187 lbs. Take XL in all my IH shirts.

^ Looks good, great fit and you wear it well

Thank you @den1mhead.
Really pleased with the jacket and fit. First IH jacket I have owned so pleased to get the sizing right. The fact that all my IH shirts are XL could have been a red herring, fortunately I chose the large and I think it is the right size. Looks like quite a few folks who take XL shirts are able to size down on the jackets.
Also never owned a Harrington style jacket. All my other coats are black, grey or olive, therefore a Navy Harrington offers something different to my collection.
Been slobbing round the hotel room for days now in shorts and t-shirts. Seemed a bit weird getting dressed up to take these fit pics. Definitely going crazy cooped up, hotel walls encroach on me 2ft per day I swear. Only 6 more days to go then I can go to work.
