Went with a large size per my discussion above. It matches the size chart well which is very similar to an XL 14IB jacket but maybe because of the length and stiffness it feels like it's wearing me. Any thoughts? Hot soak? I feel like sizing down will be snug across the chest especially if it shrinks at all.

It's good in the width for me being ever so slightly snug through the torso and at the opening

Hot soak it and wear it damp to set the creases.

Would be super interested if you happen to have pre/post measurements for comparison to share.

[Daniel San]

Soak it will get better and crease in with wear

Can I get a fit check? This is xxl and my work shirt size is xxxl and deck jacket is xxl. Shoulders fit well with a hoody under and should be great with relax/soak if I do that

[Kasi]

My opinion looks big.

size down.

If you’re happy with it your choice.

[goosehd]

I agree with Kasi. Way too big.

[iammortalcombat]

Thanks just ordered the size down to see how it goes. The size of my closest fitting jacket was in between so I went up to play it safer.

[Daniel San]

will size down too , L is definitely too big

And you too..

[pechelman]

@Daniel-San did you post a fit picture too? You all have me thinking I might need to do the same.

I will get my Lefty next week. As I probably will have to give it a hot soak, I was just wondering: How hot should a hot soak be if you‘re looking for shrinkage? The hottest you can get out of the bathtub? Or just 30-40 degrees Celius?

[Kasi]

Lukewarm water that what I did.
One hour should be ok

[Daniel San]

@pechelman
no I didn’t. Tried on and I’am sure it’s too big.
never get that much shrinkage to make it fit like I want it .
