IHJ-123-OD - 14oz Broken Twill Selvedge Denim Work Jacket - Indigo Overdyed Black

@Ral1121 I wear a large in the western UHFs and CPOs. I can go large or medium in the workshirts. Most of the jackets I go medium. For this one I went large and its perfect. So if you are stuck, I think you'd be safe with the same size as your westerns.
-
@Ral1121 I usually wear XXL/xxxl in shirts, depends on p2p. I went with XXL in the 123 because my plan was to wear it with only a tee, but I tried to wear it with a 12 oz western and it worked. If I would do it regularly or layer heavier I'd size up.
-
Went to Statement Store today and grabbed the last one available. Size L fits perfect. I am usually somewhere between M and L. I can wear it with just a t-shirt but layering would be also an option. Love it!
-
I took the leather pull off mine. Did anyone else do it too? I wasn’t digging the way the leather draped when done up. I like the jacket more now.
-
@Boit am definetely thinking about doing that, jacket would look cleaner too I think
-
@Boit yup I did
-
repurposed the leather pull; put on my 136 -
My partner said “let me take a picture to show all your Iron Heart Forum friends!” Been drooling over this jacket for a while now, and after having quite a few IH Jackets this XS fits me better than any other! Being a short slender guy is sometimes rough! This jacket is absolutely killer!
-
@LittleRockRaw Great fit and congrats!!

Can anyone chime in on the "spray the arms" method. I do notice on most of my IH CPOs, jackets etc. the "stock" crease straight down the arm is pretty prominent.
I never really thought much about it as I just wear my pieces but I am curious about this method. -
@jglatz spray the arms is to spray the elbow pit area before wearing it to help set creases for the arm honeycombs as far as I know!
-
@jglatz I feel like spraying the arms helps with the creases more than with the fold line. I mostly soak the arms before wear and let them dry to get rid of the long vertical crease
-
@jglatz do you do anything to get rid of the stock crease? I've noticed it on a couple of shirts and would like to avoid the stripe fade if possible.
-
@catdad1 have not done this yet but seems like folks either soak the arms or spray them
-
@jglatz If you have a steamer, you can use that. Otherwise, soaking the arms (or the whole jacket) is probably your best bet.
-
Love that jacket more and more!
-
Wow ,yeah… this monster sure does bleed!

Have been wearing this jacket exactly 17 times since I got it and it's already showing some indigo at the arm creases that's popping through under the black surface. It's hard to photograph it but I tried. Absolutely love that jacket and can't wait for how it's going to look in a year or so.
