Hmm - can't tell if I'm a large or a medium in this one (usually go with large in most shirts, but ask for those on the smaller side). Is the IH staff sticking with their usual sizes or sizing differently?

Yeah I need to know what Graham wears!

Love this jacket! I got my normal size XL and it fits perfectly. (195lbs 6’1” 42 chest)

Just received mine today.
It's exactly as I hoped it would be. Feels fantastic, great colours and fits really well (I think anyways!)
I'm very glad I got this colour combo.
I'm 5'11ish and 160lbs and this is a Medium.
Thanks for such a fast turnaround as usual Alex and the Ironheart team!

Not really. I went off my normal size because I didn't want this fit like a shrunk sweatshirt. It had my questioning if that was mistake. I'm the worst about second guessing stuff like this. Thanks for the input.

@sabergirl You're absolutely right. I realized it was just bad posture. I was folding my core in and shortening my torso.
Thanks for the thumbs up. I'm a type 1/2 head so I'm branching out of my typical fits. It's hard to tell if you got it right.
I don't know if this helps but I noticed the no patch/patch have different fits. The patch version has less length and a tighter opening. Maybe the no patch might be something you could work with.

Jackets can be tough. My first jackets are mediums, like my shirts but now I go large for jackets. I went back to the beginning of those old jacket threads and I’ll be damned if the crew didn’t say they were cut big and to size down.
For me the obvious difference is if I turn off my brain when I put it on. If my first thought is man it’s hard to get my arms in this thing then I know it’s too small. A well fitting jacket should go on effortlessly.

This is something thats been troubling me for a while - fit is so subjective, for a start, and also people change shape, or at least can do. When I first started working for IH, I was heavier than I am now, but never wore larger than an XL because I thought well fitting clothes should fit snug. I lost a bunch of weight, and sized down to Ls often to maintain that snug fit, in the last few years I prefer a roomier fit, so went back up to XL and now I've gained weight again, take mainly XXL. If you go back to see what I wore in a fit pic 5/6 years ago, it could be completely 'false' data nowadays. Not really sure what we can do to improve on this.
Equally, we update the staff vitlas pretty often, so whilst my vitals may be accurate now, on an old jacket where I wore xyz size when my vitals were xyz, if you see the photo and look at my current vitals, you would get false data to make an informed purchase.

What an awesome jacket. Perfect spring weight. I noticed a missed stitched and some loose threads, is that something to worry about? I’d hate for my pocket to start opening up.
