      Just got mine in today and it’s absolutely incredible.

      I had a McCoy N-1 and just didn’t love the fit. Sold it over the weekend and then I saw this pop up and with the measurements had to try it. And it’s perfect. I have room to move around which is something I need in a jacket. I don’t like when jackets are too fitting. Inhavent tried with a hoody yet but I have a feeling I’ll be able to.

        @hgering27 looks good man! How did you size? I take an XL in the n1. But for this I’m thinking I should size down.

          @Johnnyutah247 so I went tts to my normal IH, so XXXXL. I may have been able to fit xxxl because of the measures but I need all the shoulder/chest room I can get.

            @Johnnyutah247 Glad to aid a fellow connoisseur! Impossible to regret having this jacket.

            I've worn the N1 and the A2 in large - and agree with you - they both fit, but the N1 is slimmer in large. So perhaps A2 is a whole size larger... after all it is A 2, N(ot) a 1... hahaha

              Just grabbed this in a L from Iron shop provisions. They were running a 15% off sale. Went down a size from my typical iron heart size and what I wear on the N1 so I’m hoping it works out. I also got the new crazy check brown flannel in XL and the 17 oz. Duck type 3.

                Congrats! I was also able to snag one from ISP. I went with the Size Medium. I am typically a Size L in UHFs. I do have an Iron Heart N1 in Size Medium that fits pretty trim so I stuck with Medium on the A2 so I will have a bit more room to layer.

                You will love the Crazy Check Brown...mine arrived from Rivet & Hide on Wednesday and it is the UHF of the year IMO. Did you go with the Work Shirt or the Western?

                  @SaddleSC western, which is what I always do. I just prefer them. I love the snaps. I think I’m up to 7 in the collection now.

                  I hope I sized correctly with the A2. It seems like the IH staff all sized down 1 for it. My N1 is an XL and fits exactly perfect. I wear it over a t shirt and if I want to layer with a UHF, or hoodie ,it’s snug, but still good. The chest, and waist measurements for the A2 seemed to make it seem like it fit a size bigger than the n1. This style of jacket also looks better to me when it’s not oversized.

                    @Johnnyutah247 Very cool! I have the Western also...the snaps and the back yoke, combined with the trimmer fit is what I love about it!

                    As far as the sizing...I almost always go with Medium in IH jackets, I have the N1s and also an M65 that fits perfect. I was worried that if I were to size down to Small, based on the measurements, it would get a bit restrictive in the shoulder/arm openings and sleeves at the elbow.

                    It is really a crap shoot when you cannot try these things on in advance. I will be happy if it has some room to layer, especially because the sleeves are lined with wool, rather than satin:)

                    I think we will both be happy! You will get the trim style you are looking for and hopefully I will finally have some room to layer a UHF or Loopwheel hoodie under the jacket!

                      Ugh. Very difficult to snag one in size small.

                      (And very weirdly I am appearing as "Raw and Unwashed" despite joining the forum in 2011!)

                            @Smiladon you found the absolute perfect fit. I would love to have one that fits that way on me. Can't decide which fabric though. Whipcord or the serge, decisions decisions.

                                  @mentalplane thank you good person 👏
                                  I bought the whip not even knowing, or perhaps forgetting, that the serge was also coming out. I like my other two whipcord jackets for the protection they provide from the elements so I’m glad I stayed with the whip. But that serge looks so good with its already faded look. It’s a hard choice. Ultimately just go with what one fits you best. I am super pleased with the fit. I’m always worried because I’m super tall that they’ll be too short, but because I sit in a car all day, I kinda like a shorter cut, you know like a policemans jacket or a piolet.

                                    In regards to sizing for us smaller dudes i sized down from my normal small. For reference I’m 5’7 and 147lbs and wear a small in the N1 and M65. I was a bit worried with going with an XS but I trusted the measurements and everything worked out. Even with it being an XS it feels looser than the N1 in a small. A medium weight hoody or flannel fits fine under it with just a bit of tightness in the shoulders. I’m in love with this jacket 🙂

                                      The jacket looks sick. Just wish there was an interior pocket. Still gonna but it though

                                        @Smiladon I’m curious … what’s the difference between the serge and the whipcord? I own a whipcord N1 so I’m very familiar with that material. Thank you.
