@Lowlander @Oaktavia @Larkens
Thank you guys for the reassurance, I got stuck in a mental battle on sizing even though kinda knew. I really appreciate the advice. So stoked rock this beast of a jacket for RR, and rep Iron heart. Can’t wait get this, soaked, and eventually broken in. It’s Going under our tree today, maybe wrap it up so its standing up next to the tree JK. Me and my wife decided for our big gift to each other, would take out the guess would and just say what we wanted. I got hers all sorted too, and couple ideas for smaller surprise gifts.

Dooo it!
Haha...my wife and I do the same thing, ask what each other wants. I always go for something IH. This year it is a pair of 21oz white 634.
-
Oh nice homie, def makes things little easier taking out the guess work lol. Also white 634s are going look so steezy

Looking for advice on this 3XL pre soak fit. What do you think? Wearing it over a 12 oz 33 in the picture, my plan was to be able to wear it with a hoody or shirt but also over a tee. If it's a bit oversized I don't mind, but sleeves and shoulders are def very big right now.
-
Yeah may be little long in the sleeves, post soak/ wash. If have option to return for size down may be good call if looking for just a hoodie or tee shirt underneath. but I think @worn2fade had his little bigger than planned. But went with a double soak and maybe a wash on his to get it fitting really nice.
-
@tody @meatmarketdenim1 thanks guys, I think there's a good chance that I won't be happy with the fit long term so maybe better to size down next run
-
@FlavourFade I just DM’d you on IG some pics for you to see how mine started. I also have a few reels going into details on my gram too.
Personally brother, if you’re not layering a thick hoodie and/or UHF under this I would definitely size down. I bought mine a size up from my normal IH size because I wanted to layer a IHSH-33-IND under it ironically enough, there was still a great amount of space even with a T shirt and the western on.
I definitely should’ve went true to size. Especially because this run of lefties came out a little longer in the torso which I’m not the fondest of.
-
Mine fit basically the same as yours in its raw state and after a soak and two washes I can fit my IHSH-33-IND & my 18oz OD CPO under it and still be comfortable. So like I said, unless you want heavy layering.. size down my friend!

To make it easier for folks to find in the future:
Here’s my comparison from raw to soaked to soaked + washed
I have a lot more helpful pics on IG @worn2fade
-
I usually take L in IH tops. I went for a M from the latest lefty batch and there’s still plenty room for layering with a shirt or hoodie, should I want to. It works great with just a T-shirt too.
-
Thanks a lot everyone @worn2fade @meatmarketdenim1 @V-P
I am still not sure if this one is for me or not. Looking at the measurements of the 2XL I am sure with some shrinkage that it's going to be too small in the chest and waist area. The sleeves of the 3XL are def too long but I do like the fit of @worn2fade 's jacket tbh. This is really a hard decision
-
@FlavourFade for reference I like my IH top’s at 23” pit to pit. This jacket sits at 23.5” pit to pit and it has lots of space. I’m not sure the science behind it but I don’t think the pit to pit of a shirt and jacket are supposed to be the same. When I tell you I have a LOT of space, I’m not exaggerating one bit. I thought I would need a slightly bigger chest measurement to accommodate my minor layering but the math ain’t mathing lol.
-
@worn2fade you are probably right! While I think that the fit would not totally be off, I have my 142 and the mountain parka for heavier layering with lots of space and think a more fitted T3 would be the better option. Thanks @ all

@FlavourFade https://forum.ironheart.co.uk//post/902434 Here's mine. A little bit big initially but not huge.
-
@V-P thanks! Fit is similar to the one I have here but without the comically long sleeves. That's what concerned me the most, so it's already packed Up and will go back to hamburg tomorrow. On your pictures I can see you lost a bit in sleeve length but if I translate that to the XXXL it's still going to be a bit long.
