@FlavourFade I have too many jackets myself. But I’m trying to add a bit of variety to my closet. At least a variety of makers. Somehow I just keep adding more denim
-
I almost grabbed one after a couple drinks. I already have a waxed Wills, so I was able to hold off. I’m saving for some of the IH F/W releases
-
2XL just like in the Ramblin. I expect with the additional length and room I could wear my longer shirts under the wills whereas the Ramblin works better with a t-shirt or a sweater under.
TFW many of your shirts are SP-Large and therefore unwearable with any shorter jackets due to their length. -
Don't want to interrupt the wills talk but as advised by @hgering27 (thanks brother) I gave my sashiko townes a hot soak and a medium to hot wash with low spin setting and while there are no major changes I feel that it tightened up just a bit, sleeves look a little less bulky and shoulders feel better. But still need that hemming, my tailor is on holidays and I will send her the shirt next month

Man, this broken twill denim Ramblin quickly became my favorite jacket! And I’m so glad I had courage to size down! My regular SJ size is Large. And this fits very spot on like my waxed Ramblin in large.

@mecken88 looks great! I held off the ramblin and wills this round which wasn’t easy
-
@Mizmazzle I went with medium too. Seems like it should fit well according to the charts.
-
@DaelMartinez what’s your normal IH jacket/ shirt size?
-
@Mizmazzle I’m also a large in Iron Heart and went with a medium in the denim Wills. I have a Decade Wills in a medium and it fits perfectly with a little room to layer. So I think you definitely got the right size!
-
@mecken88 looks great……I haven’t taken mine off since I got it!
-
@denami thanks! I had been waiting for the Ramblin since I missed it back in 2023. So I’m glad I managed to buy one!
@Darth-fader thank you! Same here, it became in instant favorite!
@myk1098 thank you, I’m very happy with the fit too. Snug enough for a tshirt fit. But I can also wear a thin hoodie or like a denim shirt comfortably too
yeah I bet it’s gonna be great! Looking forward seeing how the Wills fits on people here
-
@Mizmazzle I usually go with L in iron heart
-
@mecken88 that fit is amazing, I mean the whole outfit is bad ass but the ramblin is the perfect match
-
@FlavourFade thanks man, I really appreciate it dude!🫶
The jacket has been a real treat. Instant favorite. And pushing my comfort zone with wearing the hat more frequently have been a fun challenge to make it feel slightly more natural

Hot take here, or maybe not so hot, but I truly think Ship John proportionally looks best in that mid-size range, from Medium to Large, maybe XL in some cases. Of course, it depends on someone’s build, but as far as I’m concerned, it doesn’t get any better than this fit right here…Looks killer.

@northsouthdenimguy thanks man
I don’t know, for me personally I don’t think so. I know a few taller, big fellas that actually in my mind look’s better in SJ then me, just because Mike likes long shirts. So with my build many SJ uppers is not flattering for me because I’m short/medium guy. (174cm = around 5’9”)
And they easily looks way to long. But iv heard Mike said most shirts at least are supposed to be easy to hem. So if you are a wider bigger body but need them shorter, hemming is always an option.
For me iv kind of learned to live with the length on many items. But in a dream I would very much like to hem some shirts too.I don’t know, everything is personal preference and everyone likes to wear stuff differently. Me personally always gets hyped seeing people rock SJ no matter the body type or size. Sometimes maybe small alterations would make stuff perfect, but I think that’s part of the game. So brand have ever manage to perfect a fit for every possible body type. I think that would be a hard challenge, if not impossible
But I appreciate you like the fit

Totally fair, and that’s really the beauty of it. Fit is personal, and you’ve definitely found what works for you.
