Thought it looked cool hanging there…

Hi, everyone. I am new here and looking for some fit feedback. I do want a slimmer fit, but I don't know if the current size (small) is overly slim. I'm thinking of getting a medium just to be sure, but I don't want it to suddenly become too long.

@lossforwords the sleeves on your jacket would be too short for my liking. if you factor in that there will be creases in the elbow that will further shorten the length of the sleeve, that may be a decisive factor. you may gain a little in the chest, but seeing how trimmed the jacket fits now, that may be manageable.
you could also always get in touch with the crew, and ask them if they can find you a jacket with dimensions that may suit you better in a specifc area.

@lossforwords If I’m just looking at the pictures I think that you could benefit from a medium, looking specifically at your shoulders. The length differens between a S and M according to the size chart is just 1cm/0,39inch. And especially if you want any layering options, that’s how I use mine.

Then again, if you would just rock it with a tshirt and mostly open the Small should be fine.

Loving this jacket and wearing it all the time. I do have a friendly design/production question I’m guessing is for @ShopatIronHeart …

What’s behind the decision to go with the white twill pockets? Why not the same black denim as the jacket itself? (This is what’s done on my other IHJ 9526PJ for example).

Not saying I dislike it or not (and I dig the crocking) - just curious what went into the decision.

Thanks!

@dwils Ill try and do some digging and let you know, but it might be its just what Haraki-San preferred for this model so it didn't feel so bulky.

[dwils]

@JoshC much appreciated! And that would make sense - double denim there could be bulky. Thanks for looking into it!

[AdamC]

@dwils Yeah I think what Josh has said is correct, would have been a decision from H san during production and bulk, or lack of, would seem right

I'm really glad I chose this jacket... I'm already looking forward to the first fades

[mojomack_100]

@Mindfulbiscuit Definitely like the large better. How do you find the comfort between the two? I am trying to decide between med and large (usually wear 38R slim suit) and I hate anything that does not feel fitted.

[Mindfulbiscuit]

@mojomack_100 to be honest I’m glad I got the large over the medium but for my body type I’m more boxy over long slim shape but l liked the shorter length in the medium,but in the larger the chest under the pits just worked out so I sacrificed for that if that makes sense

[mojomack_100]

Yeah, I was considering the Large, but still worried about how that will fit my frame. 176 cm and 69 kg. The L measurements seem to be just marginally higher than a RLL Type 3 Medium that is snug with anything more than a t shirt.

[indigo_nico]

@mojomack_100 I am similar dimensions and went with the XL over the L. The L fit, but anything more than a t shirt might have been too much. Very happy with my choice!

Adding my personal experience I have the 44 but it feels/looks like a 42 on me which is near perfect for how I want to wear this with layers. A wash will most happen soon on my end and will update post. Its funny by comparison the xxl SEXIH25 indigo I have should fit similar but im swimming in that.

Haven’t missed many wear days since I got this jacket back in March ‘25

[dwils]

@Mizmazzle so sick! Love those fades. And love this jacket. Wear mine as often as possible!

[Mizmazzle]

@dwils it’s really such an incredible denim. I know we all love the heavyweights. But this 14oz denim is so versatile, comfy, and down right easy to wear while still maintaining that IH heft.

[dwils]

@Mizmazzle totally agree! It’s been perfect for my cool Maine summer nights. I really treat it like a sweatshirt.
