I only own brown boots. Should a guy have some black boots too?

I was the polar opposite...I only own black boots,should I have some brown boots? You know the answer!

@goosehd this pun must be reported to the mods at once

7/10 did make me chuckle

@long_john86 the chinos and work pants from IH have always had a tricky slim thigh. 816 was a little more generous, as are the 829. There was a lighter weight chino, 711 maybe? That one fit me better than the other chinos I’ve tried.

@long_john86 Like you, I'm a big-thigh-guy.

The 727 chinos (based on the 888 top block) should be coming back at some point this season, and in new colourways. They may be more suitable. I'm keeping an eye out for them.

Otherwise, just know that you need to size up for your thighs in any of IH's straight cut trousers, which are all more or less based on the 634 cut.

@EdH @long_john86 hopefully next month for the 727

[EdH]

@AdamJ Thanks, I'll save up!

@AdamJ any idea of the 12 oz chinos will return?

@Anesthetist or anyone else that’s have or have had an IH Browns Beach Jacket care to comment on sizing? There’s a medium out there I have my eye on. Truly a different piece for IH and. Think I could get some use out of it.

Tried like hell to find some sizing info here but keep striking out.

@Matt try here, 7 or 8 posts in there’s a chart: https://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/topic/4887/ihw-08-beach-cloth-coverall?srsltid=AfmBOopIjuvKTlDKQfKG4DCbr9XOv_xzUKFj9FoF2t0v-0_f4QgDPe3B

@sabergirl Damn good find!! I was searching the archives using Browns Beach and didn’t see this one. Thank you!

Edit: I added the chart to Ann’s post

[Matt]

I never would have searched for a cloth coverall. Good catch.

[Matt]

Sizing looks weird. Big shoulders but small chest. Im leaning towards a large then I guess. The one for sale is a M. I’ll keep looking.

[goosehd]

@Matt playing devils advocate, are you going to wear it buttoned? If not a small chest might not be an issue.

[Matt]

I like my $300 jackets to fit properly. I’m funny that way.

[Matt]

@UnTucked i noticed you bought a medium but shrunk it accidentally. If the M was too big what size did you normally wear?

[Anesthetist]

@Matt sorry I am late to the party but here are the dimensions of my large vest…
Shoulder 14.5”
Chest 20.75”
Length 23.75” (back), 25.5” (front panel from back collar)

[Anesthetist]

Super beautiful piece that I wish worked better for me
