      Thanks for the info guys!
      I didn't think it would be but was trying to find another reason I should get this.

          @lolnah you should have enough reasons if you are considering it. It’s incredibly hefty and wearable. The cut is non-restrictive as it gets and the raglan sleeves make it just as wearable zipped or open.

          This one you won’t regret buying.

            @jordanscollected How did you size this compared to a UHF? I'm tall and slim but with a decent sized chest. So a XXL UHF fits well but XXL is to tight in the chest. did you size down one size from UFH?

            And thank you @Alex

              @lolnah My UHF size is XL and I bought this jacket in a large. I could have squeezed into a medium but large fits great with no restrictions over my many size XL shirts.

              Of course our body types are personal, but I think you will be safe to size down to XL. It's a boxy cut so if it's too big you may be unhappy, especially if you wear slim leg jeans.

                Team, I emailed the team but wanted to ask here as well. I'm 6'1 with a 45" chest. I have a 15oz canvas CPO style shirt with 24" chest and bottom opening that fits well, I can layer a heavy hoodie.

                I was certain I needed an XL with 25" chest, but I'm doubting myself due to the 21oz weight. I want to layer this, while not feeling too restrictive and not looking huge. Would the XXL be best? I weigh 10 lbs more than Courtney in the pics.

                  @crollee I aim for a 24 inch chest with my shirts and I’m usually XXL but do have a few XXXL as well. This serge windbreaker fits me perfect in an XL with room for a tee and a UHF. Pretty sure there’s a few pics of me wearing it with a shirt further back in this thread.

                    @DeeDee85 thanks! Still on the fence sizing-wise haha. I realize hot soak and dry is a dangerous game, but is it possible to shrink this fabric in the chest by .5" if the XXL is too big?

                      @crollee I think shrinking the serge fabric is possible as I’ve seen it mentioned in the 13oz shirt threads but I’m not too sure with this 21oz fabric

                        @crollee The product description states: Post construction, we wash the completed garment in an aggressive industrial washing machine. This process removes virtually all potential shrinkage.

                        • No further shrinkage is expected when washed according to our care guidelines

                        I really don’t think you can shrink it unless you are really aggressive in your approach.

                          I’ve been wearing this as much as possible since the weather has cooled down some. It’s not showing as much fading as in the pics but it’s coming along. It’s so soft and heavy. I’m honestly surprised I haven’t been jumped for my jacket in public yet.

                              @jordanscollected pretty cool progress! I wear my black one everyday but mostly for commuting so there is nothing visible yet but I don't mind it keeping its color for a while. Still looking forward to some more updates of your jacket!!

                                @jordanscollected Looks good my man! After seeing these pictures I kinda feel like I missed the boat on this one. Only one body and so many choices …

                                  @Denman-John very well put with the one body, so many choices. I struggled to wear my N1 deck vest and had a hard time letting it go. But I turned it into this jacket and feel like I made a great decision.

                                  Hearing that IH has no plans to make anything else out of this fabric (not sure that includes a restock of this and the pants), I am so happy I picked this up.

                                    @jordanscollected it's really a bummer that we might never see other heavy serge pieces but it's great to have the 142 and I have to say it's one of the few jackets I got a compliment from my girlfriend for who is not nearly a denim/ clothing nerd like me
