@dwils that’s awesome, really like having an iron-heart-breaking-in-period-friend
I’ve just worn my 888 4 days, and now had to leave them at home for a work trip. I can’t stand it for a 9 hour flight, but I really want to put them on again. However the back of my knee and my hips are thanking me for the paus I think that the black jacket will complement the dark blue of the jeans nicely.

Thank you for the insight @Mizmazzle I will absolutely follow your advice.

Fresh out the paper bag! This is an XL. Fits a touch tighter than my XL type III Superblack (tho the measurements were darn close) but the XXL measurements on these looked a little too big for my liking. I tried a thin layer under it and it worked.
What do we think!?

@dwils It is a nice fit.

[Sunnergren]

@dwils it really is a handsome jacket and I think that it fits you very well. Great buy!

Looks great.....

@dwils I think it looks great on you my friend, with a little wear it will drape perfectly

I love the jacket already.

[dwils]

Thanks for all the comments everyone.
Psyched to watch this one change through the summer!

Not the best of photos, but the one I had time to take. I love this jacket and it is a part of me now. Very happy that I went with XXL (44) on this. It works with a hoodie underneath but I can feel it in the arms. With a T-shirt it is perfect closed but also works open.

[dwils]

@Sunnergren sounds like a perfect fit. Looks great. I haven’t taken mine off since I got it

[Sunnergren]

@dwils thank you!

[Sunnergren]

A few more pics, really enjoy this jacket. Maybe 6-8 wears now.

For reference I am 188cm tall and about 90kg. This is size XXL (44).

T-shirt underneath today, feels as good closed as open. Jeans are 888 in XHSib.

Cheers!

@Sunnergren @dwils I'm stoked to see this thread getting some much deserved action!!

20 days in on mine! It’s basically a shirt at this point. I’m so happy that it is finally getting warm in the Midwest, but I’m not trying to rush the heat so I can get as much wear as possible! 60 days on 555 XHS and an unknown amount of wear on my beloved orange beanie.

Saturday Iron Heart dump run.
My wife’s like, “When are you going to take that thing off?”
It’s coming along nicely.
Every once in a while I wish I went with a 44 instead of 42, but then 10 minutes later I love this size. The arm holes are a liiiiiiiittle snug is the only issue I have.

@dwils perfect silhouette man!

Went backpacking last weekend and wore my 86 the whole time, both while hiking and in camp. 86 got rather sweaty and dirty, so…wash #4
(I was a little shocked that I lost .75” in back length this time. Even following my delicate cold wash system per usual…)

[dwils]

@Mizmazzle Dang that is surprising on the length. She still hangs real sweet though! Love how it's looking.

[Mizmazzle]

@dwils thanks dude. Yea, I freaked out when I measured it after it dried…but the length still looks great.
I am really happy with how it’s aging.

@Mizmazzle fades looking killer dude. I'm wearing mine daily and can't wait to start seeing some of that grey pop out.
