IH-101J-SR - 18oz Selvedge Denim Storm Rider Jacket - Indigo
-
Looks like I snagged the last German 40 a day before you
Slightly tight in the chest (108 cm) with a sweater, but a good fit I think. The XL would likely be too loose in the shoulders.
-
Horrendous fit. I can send you my contact details though :).
-
Is there anyone wearing a 42 in the 2526j who also owns a storm rider? Would you go with a 42 or 40 in the SR?
You're it.

@RobeOfTheMagi How far do you live from the nearest Ironheart retailer? It may be in your interest to make a trip to the closest one to nail down your fit and to get measurements of items that work for you. You could also try on combinations to see what works and what doesn’t for you.
Might be worth a trip…
-
That's true; Hamburg is a 3h drive. The problem is that there are hardly ever any jackets in stock.
You're it.
-
@RobeOfTheMagi Are any of the locations listed on this page more convenient: https://ironheart.co.uk/pages/stockist-locator

@RobeOfTheMagi They come up smaller across the shoulder and longer in the arm, compared to type 111. That's the main measurement to look out for, I find. And you can flip the cuff.
-
Your fit looks great!
-
@RobeOfTheMagi in defence of them, this is kind of a worldwide issue at the moment - we are all struggling to keep stock on hand, IHUK just has the highest spend on stock per year of all IH stockists (obviously), and the widest range of Iron Heart products stocked (also obviously) so the issue looks less severe with us than elsewhere, but in terms of % stock on hand, we are all in the same boat
-
@Alex Right, I wasn't really trying to make a statement about IH Hamburg. I was just implying that one does not simply walk into a brick and mortar (Boromir emoji) and try on IH jackets that have been dropped a few weeks ago :).
-
Landed one of these bad boys secondhand (third hand?) just in time for winter. Thanks @mapotofu and @Anesthetist very stoked to be carrying the torch on this piece.
-
@freepickin looks great man!
-
What a flippin' beauty this one is slowly churning out to be. I'm really blessed to have some really great jackets, and this guy is certainly one of them.
-
@freepickin beauty indeed dude. It's rad to see these blanket lined jackets evolve.
-
@Oaktavia yeah dude, this is just my opinion of course but the blanket lined jackets (especially if you size it a bit to have room underneath to layer) are 100% the move for me from this point forward. Checks all my boxes of what is comfortable, warm/functional and what fits my style/figure. Once these preferences are dialed in, nothing left to do but smile smile smile!
-
@freepickin right on man that is awesome

@Mister_Brue for real, snow works so well as a backdrop for photographing denim.

Hey all, I just joined the club.
I got lucky and found a large on Grailed for a decent price.
It's a good fit, looks amazing, has impeccable construction, and is very warm; with only an LL Bean waffle knit under it, I was warm at 28 degrees yesterday.
There's enough room under it to wear a sweater too for the really frigid days.
I'm 5'7", 150 lbs and the Large fits well with 2 minor exceptions; it's a little tight under the arm pits, and the sleeves are about 1" too long.
I'm sure the pits will loosen up with wear and I really don't mind the long sleeves.
Do you think a non detergent wash in cold water will help it conform to my body, or should I just wear the crap out of it?
BTW, this is a double first for me; first Japanese denim, and first selvedge denim.
Only one thing is a bit annoying about it; that big, stiff, plastic patch at the neck is totally out of place on such a nice jacket.
It should be leather at this price point!
Well, here it is.
