Picked a great winter to release such a warm comfortable jacket @AdamJ do you guys have special information on weather? Just a coincidence?
This and the N1 been doing their jobs in 2026.

@CosmoSix5 glad they are serving their purpose!

@PJ almost makes you happy it's -degrees out right?

So after a complete non scientific two day comparison... I'm putting this jacket as significantly warmer than my whipcord N1. Today I have been much more comfortable outside in the Melton Wool than yesterday in the N1. It's colder today also by about 7-10°. This jacket does fit better, the N1 is a size to big. That could play a factor I imagine.

Hi everyone,
I’m planning to pick up the IHM-49-BLK (21oz Melton Wool M65 Field Jacket) from a local retailer since it's currently out of stock on the main shop, but I'm stuck between choosing an XL or a XXL. I could really use your expert insight on how this specific pattern behaves.
For sizing context, here are my current IH references:
• I wear a size XXL in both the IHJ-132-BLK and the IHJ-526IB (14oz). The shoulders on both of these jackets fit me perfectly.
Here are my body stats and measurements:
• Chest circumference (t-shirt): 113 cm
• Chest circumference (with a standard Dickies pullover hoodie): 115 cm
• Height: 1'88
• Weight: 92
I plan to use this strictly as a heavy winter jacket, always layering it over either a flannel or a standard Dickies hoodie.
Knowing that the IHM-49 features a flat Ventile lining, bi-swing shoulder pleats on the back, and that the shoulders are measured "The Iron Heart Way" across the collar, do you think I can squeeze into the XL for a cleaner silhouette, or should I stay true to my denim jacket sizing and go for the XXL to handle the layers comfortably?
Would love to hear from anyone who owns the IHM-49 or has cross-shopped it against standard IH denim jackets.
Thanks in advance for the help! -
@Malkior if you're going local could you try both on to pick the best fit?

@Malkior I have must have misread with the local shop thing,
-
@dirtyframer My bad. I used the word "local" when I actually meant "domestic" or "national."
Sorry for the mix-up! -
It's that time again. Happy to have this out of storage! One day worn, one random compliment on it already.
