IH-101J-SR - 18oz Selvedge Denim Storm Rider Jacket - Indigo

[tk303]

Can anyone comment on how the blanket lining affects the sizing, compared with an unlined Type III for instance, especially the chest measurement? Would a 23 inch chest be more like 22 1/2 inside?

@tk303 I bought a size up at last release. Works well to layer, but in retrospect, wish I had gone with my usual UHF size!

[tk303]

@Buckeye Thank you for that, appreciate it!

[RobeOfTheMagi]

Does this iteration run smaller than the last one?

[Alex]

@RobeOfTheMagi i don't recall, but presumably the size chart that has been updated will guide you more than how it sized in the past?

[RobeOfTheMagi]

That's of course true @Alex. In my recollection this jacket did run quite large and I was irritated to find the shoulders in size 40 now being narrower than with the IHSH-33-IND.

@Alex said in IH-101J-SR - 18oz Selvedge Denim Storm Rider Jacket - Indigo:

I actually think it is down to the pattern.

If you look at the shoulder seam on this vs a type iii, it looks higher and more round to the neck.

Given we measure sleeve from that shoulder seam, this naturally exaggerates the sleeve length.

@RobeOfTheMagi This jacket consistently confuses people, understandably. Look at the shoulders and sleeve as a whole (see above)

[RobeOfTheMagi]

Thanks @Alex. Quality answer as usual!

@tk303 The lining is not that thick imo that it matters that much with sizing correctly.

But the denim is quite stiff, and if you're like me, a bit between 2 sizes, you might need to decide for a certain look.

For me at the end, I prefer a slightly bulkier look with this jacket, it being overall a more cold weather jacket that might need to accommodate UHF, etc.
I tried with a M, and even though it did fit, I felt restricted, and most importantly for me, I kind of lost the cozy feeling of a nice warm winter jacket.

Plus you can always shrink it a bit if necessary (CTRL-F the thread to find a user at least who did post shrink results).

Here is a picture with a IH shirt + T-shirt under to give you an idea (same look with a UHF but I took the picture with this one). I'm 180cm and now around 73 kg.
Added bonus for me but I don't like when shirts exceeds too much the jacket length in general, so the slight over-sizing really helps here.

Interesting point about the shoulder and sleeve length that I hadn't even considered.. it is a tricky one to figure out measurements

@Slash, love the detailed response, thank you!
