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

[TENDREL]

@ZackB I normally go XL in UHF, and L in type 3/most jackets. The L was perfect on me with this one if just going to wear it over a tee. If i wanted to layer it over something more substantial would probably go up to an XL.

@TENDREL awesome man, really appreciate the advice.

Kind of behind the scenes question, but was this run of denim made at a different mill than the denim for the most recent storm rider run? It appears a little more neppy this time around, but that could just be the specific jacket I received!

@Buckeye No, its the same denim and mill

Mine just came in…so good! Glad I went with the XXXXL. First Storm Rider, damn I’ve been missing out.

[Ikeaparty]

Just got mine as well! So pumped about this, glad I ordered both XL and XXL, gonna end up going XL but the unknown would have ate away at me! XL maybe ever so slightly too tight when buttoned up but likely wont be buttoning up very often anyway. Love the quilted sleeves as well!

Does the 18oz denim have much stretch in it??

[goosehd]

@Ikeaparty Asking a difficult question here. In what way: Is the jacket too tight? You’re not only stretching the denim, but the lining’s as well…

Is 18oz denim stretchable? Then yes…

[Ikeaparty]

@goosehd just curious if itll loosen up at all over time, not thinking of intentionally stretching anything, it fits basically primo right now.

That said it could be slightly looser, XXL definitely too big, mostly just due to posture where my shoulders hunch forward it puts some tightness on the back across the shoulder so wondering if thatll loosen at all which based on your answer it will over time.

Suspect that the lining would stretch more than the denim!

edit: I havent ever owned anything of the vintage demo so mostly just dont have the experience with the fabric like I do with others

[goosehd]

@Ikeaparty It should stretch with time, but you’re working against a couple of layers and if it’s too small the results won’t be great. Just about right and there will be some give with that time.

Noted thanks @goosehd sitting at just about right so all good there!

XXL on its way back to Gosport so anyone looking set your notifications up!

Hey all just got my jacket in and the Large is pretty perfect! The only thing that’s a little off is sleeves being a tad long. What does everyone think of the fit? Curious if a little long on the sleeves is the idea with this one in particular

@SlothRock

I think it looks pretty spot on, I personally don't think the sleeves are too long, and once the jacket breaks in and settles in around the elbow area I think that will sort itself out a bit !

Enjoy the jacket !
