      @steve4861 I have a spreadsheet where I have pics of all the items along the top columns.
      Below each pic I have the model number.
      Below that I have the sizes of that item as per the IH site at time of purchase, not the actual sizes. I never measure them.
      I also have where from. IH, Rivet/hide, wherever. and the date of release.

      That's just all in order or purchase. Newest item to right.

      On two other tabs I have 1: the same details/pics but sorted by chest size, and 2: same details/pics but sorted by shoulder size.

      That way whenever a new sizing chart comes out for a potential new purchase I can rapidly see where it would sit amongst everything I have against the only two measurements I really look at.

      works well for me. here's a section of an older version, something along these lines.

          @cyclops cheers. before buying anything I copy and paste in the sizing chart below it and whittle away the sizes til I find the one that most closely matches the sizes I am happy with. Based on the numbers on the sheet and how I know it actually feels wearing them.

          That way, when something goes Live, I just can go ahead and try and buy what I have already decided. No messing about.

          I know the 'compare' tool can kinda do this but this way I can see everything I have at a glance in my own time and in whatever order I need. The key is just keeping it updated as you go and it's an always live database of where I'm at.

            @Stringthing75 nah but this is good, its a bit more personalised to you and what you actually own etc so i see merit in this. Like i think mentally we might have an idea of what works for your own body shape for this brand but having it down i think would be cool. So thanks for the idea

              Curious why is it SBG and not SBW. Is there some technical limitation that it cannot be white, or just preference?

                I came up with the name and acronym. With hindsight, Black Fades to Grey (BFG) would have been way better.......

                In my opinion, the garments fades to grey, not white

                  Will any more blanket or sherpa lined Type III jackets be coming in the near future?

                  Pretty keen on getting one, ideally non-denim.

                    Yes, well the future, not necessarily, the near.....

                      Hi, noticed a small inconsistency between the what is uhr page and product pages

                        @harvestofgrief Good spot, I think it should say "is calculated at 21oz per square yard" then "becomes a denser 23oz"

                        I'm sure all the info on the product pages is a pain to write in such detail!
