IH-2526J - 17oz Duck Modified Type III - Brown

[Bane011]

@Ross you were right mate, thank you Peeerrrfect fit 4X in this beauty Also, I had a chance to try 526pj, also 4x is perfect. Should have listened to you with my 17oz duck canvas western CPO, I got 3X and it a bit snug

[Ross]

@Bane011 Hell yeh! looks ideal to me! And yes, Types IIIs and western CPOs tend to be the items which i need to go up to a 4XL in if ever, probably because they're a little slimmer in the middle, which isn't ideal for a gentleman of my .. 'structure'

If you need advice with anything else just give me a shout or hit up my DMs

I've been trying to get a bit more wear into this one around the office recently — slowly getting there, no washes yet.

Was about to buy this last week, and when I messaged Self Edge they said they had the dimensions for the old run listed and that they were about to update it to reflect the new run. I'm just realizing how short these are - does anyone have any photos that could help convince me this isn't going to look like a crop top? The old measurements looked perfect, I'm glad I double checked before ordering.

@indigo_fades Hey man, I'm 180cm and at the time of the picture (see post 1091 of this thread) I was around 77kg I think, just for reference.

If you body type allows and if you like the style, you can take the size up to get a little more length. You need to think if you would layer this or not. With a T only my "solution" might not work for you.

For me it works since I have monkey arms and slightly broader shoulders for my body size, and also because I know I would wear this mostly mid-season with a sweatshirt under, which helps with the larger P2P that goes with the size up.

If you look the thread from the beginning, not everyone wears this in the (probably) intended "short type 3" style.

My 2 euro cents, hope this helps !

Found this video review of the jacket.
Becoming a duck head with my recent duck purchases I am now looking at this one differently and with interest. One thing I agree on after watching the video is that it's surprising that the length on this one is so short compared to other modified type 3s. I scrolled up and saw some folks complaining about the same thing.
For example: IH-526Lod XXXL measures 27.7 in length on average and XXXXL IH-9526PJ 27.7 on average. I have both and their length is perfect for me.
Has this model always been so short?

@Northman Looking back at previous length dims, looks like it's always been a tad on the shorter side yes

@SamD dude just saw your photos your jacket looks sooo good!!!!!

[SamD]

@Oaktavia Cheers man, appreciate it! This one's been a bit of a slow burn for me, but hoping to get a lot more wear into it over the coming spring/summer months.
