Ship John

Split down the middle between triple XL and SP large. Typically I won’t take anything under 25” PTP in IH. Although I do have a couple 24.8”that actually fit. Really just depends on the cut, fabric and the snaps.
Edit: I have an actual chest measurement of 48.5”, my shoulders are relatively broad and I have decent size arms so other than that, I could probably wear smaller sizes .
I only say this because I’m not that tall. I’m barely 6 feet. -
@northsouthdenimguy Thanks! I’m usually XXXL in flannels w 24” p2p and have broad shoulders. My Wills is XXL and is perfect. Me think XXL would be good too if I am ever lucky enough to snag one.

Sorry, too good not to post again here, cross posting from WAYWT
Here are my initial thoughts on the jacket. It’s actually really nice, and I feel like it’s going to break in and get good fast. It’s definitely warm, but this morning it was around 25–28° and I was just slightly cold with only an IHSH-33 shirt underneath. I think a UHF with this jacket would be perfect for those temps and even a bit colder. A thermal, flannel, and this jacket together would be absolutely toasty.

very nice jacket @northsouthdenimguy
-
@northsouthdenimguy just perfect…really hoping I get lucky this next run!
-
Mine just got in, pretty happy with it. For me, slightly tight with a UHF on using my normal Ship John size, but I think it will break in.
The mouton is soft as hell though, super comfy piece! I think it will work for the slightly colder spring and fall days too, not too overwhelming heavy.
-
The more I'm wearing the jacket, the more I'm loving it. The mouton doesn't feel like sherpa on most denim jackets or sherling on like a freenote RJ2.
It honestly feels like a dog when you pet it lol. And now as I'm breaking it in, I have to hear the girlfriend in the other room go:

I agree with these statements, although the guys at Guilty Party said it looks like “cake”.

Yes! The Kristoffersons are looking great! The shop is closed today so one more day in the denim wills will do…

SJ has been growing on me for some time now. Mainly from browsing this thread from time to time. I honestly don't need a winter jacket (kristofferson is cool but I have a freenote mariner) But I could try for a denim wills. Won't get my hopes up though as it seems might be difficult.

@Denimhead-0 $998 was the final price all said and done for me with the Kristofferson. SJ did a $450 deposit and a few months later a $548 payment upon completion.

@TheChef17 that’s reasonable for that bad boy

Just came in and this thing is insanely nice. So so soft. Definitely no where near as heavy as I anticipated which is a nice surprise. This is xxxl. I like how it fits with some room for movement. I think xxl would fit with just a t shirt but would probably be pretty snug
-
@hgering27 Congrats, it looks great! I didn’t think layering would be much of an option but nice to hear it feels lighter than it looks.
