It really is beautiful denim. I had the same reaction when I opened the package.

@myk1098 Man, it’s been hotter then hell over here a few days! And on top of that we have family on visit for a week. So haven’t had time for myself to take a solid picture.
But I’m gonna try to fix something:)This medium (one size down from my regular) I think was the right call for me in this particular version! Such a great jacket! Looking forward being able to wear it all the time!🫶

@mecken88 just got mine - I went Large, but now im thinking I probably should have gone for a medium too as its a bit on the big size......its wearable, but I think a medium would have been a bit better......lovely jacket though

@Darth-fader depending on your body type if you are not totally unhappy with the fit, I'd give it a good old soak and wash with minimal spin, let it almost fully dry, wear it a bit when it's still damp and it will mold to your body!
-
@FlavourFade - I will certainly give this a try - thanks! ( it is such a nice jacket I will be wearing it even if it was 4 times too big
) -
@Darth-fader I was fixated on the shoulder measurement and then it turned out to be fine (thought it was going to be too snug, but the chest made up for it). In my opinion it fits like a fusion of type 3, chore coat and work jacket at the same time and somehow it works really well.
-
Has anyone found the shoulder to feel awkward when lifting your arms in the ramblin jacket? Kinda feels tight/forward pulling when I raise my arms up past 90 degrees. I think it's the way the arm holes are cut.
-
@FlavourFade well, I did what you said, and it has shrunk up nicely......now it is absolutely perfect, so thank you so much!

I ended up selling my Ramblin’ unworn/unwashed just a few days after receiving it.
I really liked the jacket, but the bottom opening was just too wide for me. That’s one of the challenges with these larger sizes. Everything else can fit well, but sometimes the proportions, like the opening/waist just don’t scale quite right for me. I need a bigger belly…

Understandable. I also saw you talking about having a more curated wardrobe in the other thread ( if that is the right way to describe it ).
I think I got really lucky with mine though. Initially I thought hmmmm, but it actually fills a spot in my jacket rotation.
Did anyone see Mike teasing the Dry waxed townes shirt in insta? I am not so sure about that one myself, but curious to see more.
