@boutsk you can wash on 30 till max 40 degrees celcius. I wouldn’t go warmer then that if you wanna avoid shrinkage

Breaking in my type III today!! This thing is a beast !

@christoph good fit! You’re gonna get some good stacking fades on you arms dude!

[christoph]

@Heavy_blue Thank you brother! I’m juiced for my journey to the fades! 5’10” 190 LBS , I went with the XXL. Arms were a bit long to start, but with the stacking I’m getting they’ve shortened up the perfect amount.

Great fit

[aytag]

Can I get some advice on fit?

Should I size down? Thanks!

[goosehd]

@aytag In my opinion yes as it is too big in all dimensions.

[aytag]

Ok! I thought the shoulders fit decently at first also my arms are usually pretty short in most jackets

[goosehd]

@aytag If you are in the store, try on a size smaller and you will immediately see a difference.

The S Sold out, this jacket is too popular haha

[goosehd]

@aytag Personally, I would wait for the right size. It's a fairly standard item that comes around fairly frequently.

Actually it is in stock here: https://www.ironheart.co.uk/jackets/ih-526pj.html

There are currently 8 smalls in stock.

has anyone handled this jacket in an XS?

I'm a pretty small guy (5'3", 125lbs) and I normally wear women's jackets because men's jackets rarely come small enough for me, but I'm finding it difficult to gauge how "tight" this jacket would fit on me in an XS, especially in the arms.

[Lowlander]

@smalllad I am similarly light-weight, though a bit taller than you. I usually wear IH shirts in size XS (very occasionally an S) but all three IH denim jackets I own are size S.

Your decision will also depend on how you plan to wear the jacket. I always wear my denim jackets over a shirt, and so I need the larger size. But I could probably get away with jackets in XS if a wore them over a tee, just like a shirt.

Oh and of course the most important thing to do is study the sizing charts and compare the measurements to a jacket you already own. When in doubt the guys at IHUK will be able to give you great advice.

@smalllad

I’m your same height and about 145lbs and have the XS. Sometimes I feel I should’ve gotten the S, and here’s why:

• Front feels shorter than back when wearing, and it barely hits the pants waistline.
• The side hand warmers are too high, and it takes a bit getting used to.
• The chest pockets and inside pockets are very small. I can’t fit my hand inside the inside pocket, therefor it’s kind of useless to put anything small in there.
• The leather tag is sowed over the seam that goes across the back, therefore it’s a bit uncomfortable to wear and it looks a bit awkward when new.

The sleeves are a good length for me on the XS, and would probably be too long on the S though.

I’ve probably used my jacket 5 times in the 2 1/2 years I’ve owned it (Miami weather), therefore I might sell it and give the S a try instead.
