@Gavin666 they got them at the iron heart party over the weekend

If I'm 6'1" 230, take an XL in the DR CPO and XXL in UHF Western/Work, should I go XXL or XXXL on this anyone figure?

Edit: Just realized I typed XXL twice. Second one was meant to be XXXL...

I’m 5’9 200LBS with 43” chest
Same size as ironshopprovisions Josh

Wear a XXL in western and XL in my dobby work shirt and chose XL for this.
I was almost tempted to size down until people on here said size up to just went with TTS

[Watty]

@99Tjadams Makes me think you're recommending the XXL then, eh?

Guess I'm just wary as people here have said size up and now both SOP and WF have said they find it running small....

[99Tjadams]

@Watty
I’m not a sizing expert, I keep a list of the sizes of my clothes and how they fit. When I was closer to 215lbs I’d be considering a XXL.
-edit, just noticed you were considering XXXL not XL. Hard to say in that case. I was just thinking XL would be way to small for you.

I’m in thanks to rivet and hide

[Watty]

@99Tjadams Fair enough, thanks for the insight. I've tended to size "aspirationally" in the past and it's bit me in the ass a few times, but hoping to drop a few more pounds in the near future, so maybe the XXL isn't too crazy here.

Most of my other stuff is in line with the XXL measurements.

@Watty hey buddy. I always wear the same size as Richard from Withered Fig. He took a large in his model shots and I also went large in this shirt.

He does mention sizing up but he’s referencing form normal American brands sizing compared to Japanese sizing.

Just curious, since this is a 21 oz. shirt, does it have the same heft as the IH-526J 21 oz. Type III jacket? To me, that would be a selling point. Thank you.

[Watty]

@Mizmazzle Thanks for weighing in, I guess I was more focused on that he said his measurements were coming in smaller than IH's in general, so his XXL was coming out "smaller" than their 24" chest measurement, for example.

I bet I fucked up with the size. Sigh. Alright, need to move on from this, taking up too much brain space at the moment haha.

@indigostiff yes the weight is the same, 21 ounces per square yard, but perhaps the consistency is very different,

[Mizmazzle]

@Watty yup! I see what you’re referencing now. Guess we’re all pretty excited about this one and the sizing game. I think this fabric will soften up really nicely and make for a comfy fit. What’s so nice about IH is that the dimensions are not huge jumps from one size to the next.

@Mizmazzle I actually just went to their site (withered fig)and cross referenced here after the mention. He is wearing a large in the "untucked" and I don't like the way it looks on him, too big. I have a Medium in the untucked and large in UHFs and feel his pics in large UHFs fits the way my large do. Hoping it works out

[Mizmazzle]

@popvulture I bet it’s going to be perfect man. I generally find the only difference from one size to one size up is a fitted look or a relaxed look.

[Mizmazzle]

@Denimminer I would have done Medium
In the untucked too.

[popvulture]

@Mizmazzle fair, man. I personally hate it when stuff looks too small on me, so if it runs a little big, that’s cool. Now just gotta wait!

[Mizmazzle]

@popvulture same. Hate the too small look. Course hate the overly large look too haha. I do feel like I could easily get away with wearing Medium, Large, and XL in Iron heart and not look bad. Large is just the primo fit for me generally
