IHM-47-ODG - 12oz Whipcord Tanker Jacket - Olive Drab Green
-
I'd go with the comfy one. Being whipcord and all if it gets too tight will then limit how often you wear it.
Just my two cents. -
XL all the way!
-
Both look good but XL will give far more layering options without looking oversized
-
@Cole I’d have the same difficulty as you deciding. What would/wouldn’t get worn with how you like to wear this? what is your usual IH jacket sizing?
-
@Boit, my "usual" size is all over the place.
My N1 deckjackets are size L, but they are tight in the shoulders now. My A2 is size L and offers room for layering, my M65s are size L and the green one has a relaxed fit while the black one is a bit tighter around the shoulders and my 526L is size XXL.
It's the same with shirts, I got older IH shirts in size L and XL that still fit me fine, but thend to go for XXL in most UHFs nowadays.
I guess a gravitate towards the XL version of this jacket, because it is definetly more comfortable to wear and leaves me more room to move my arms.
As I got older I gained some weight and have to face the fact, that I will never slim down to the sizes I wore when I was in my late 30s or early 40s. XL is a safer bet here, even though I don't like the thought.
-
@Cole xl looks great on you. It's the right call
-
@Cole Perfect fit man! Congratulations!
-
@Cole I think it’s a perfect fit especially when you have options to layer.
