      Anyone have N1 sizing advice? I’m a size M/US40 in most brands and wear a size L UHF. I’m wondering if I should size up to 42 if I want room to layer over a UHF.

        @uclabruin I am a L in UHFs and personally I would say yes, go with a 42, especially if you want to layer

            @uclabruin I have the shop Vancouver green version, and I have also tried the regular navy version (and they both fit the same).........they are very warm jackets though, so It depends upon where you live I suppose, but I have never needed more than a t-shirt underneath when wearing mine

                  Just got mine, so stocked. Will be some time coming but I’ll appreciate it even more.
                  Always feeling a bit nervous to pay that much money and not be able to size it first, but I’ll trust the process 🙂
                  Keep the photos coming please so I can can get hyped on the way!

                    @nrtphotos hi, would you mind sharing some information on your sizing (especially weight and chest/shoulders)?
                    I am going back and forth on sizing (between 44 and 46), as I tend to be XL in most IH including UHF. I know 44 should be the way to go but I sometimes feel slightly constrained as I have relatively large shoulders / chest. These 2 are the only dimensions that change between the two sizes and I would want to feel comfortable in the long run. Sizing is always a bit stressful on such an expensive item 🙂

                    Many thanks,

                      @tvaillant75 I’m 6’4, 195 pounds, 40 Inch chest and shoulder is somewhere around 17-18 inches.

                      I find physical measurements can be somewhat deceiving, as the 20 inch jacket shoulders are pretty bang on, maybe half an inch too big? A perfect chest measurement for me would be 23 inches but that doesn’t exist for these. I could fit a 22.5 but it would be pretty fitted on me.

                      I could definitely wear a 42 in this jacket but I just want a bit more room to breathe. I have never regretted having a bit of room, I have always regretted being a bit too small in measurements. I see a lot of guys here and online wearing jackets that If they gained even ten pounds they’d need to size up, I don’t like that.

                      I have a 44 in the Henry and have always regretted not sizing up, the leather doesn’t stretch at all.

                        @tvaillant75 I am a size 42 in pretty much all the Y2 jackets I own…..I can get away with size 40s but definitely find the 42s just more comfortable. I have the Kakishibu chore in size 42 and it’s a good fit, but slightly tight when buttoned up, so I think I could have maybe even sized up to a 44 in that one, but the 42 is fine (as I wear it unbuttoned anyway) - sizing is quite tricky I find as it seems to depend upon the jacket style/how thick the leather is and the fact they shape out and tighten up a bit with wear - so personally I would recommend slightly bigger if in doubt

                          I have noticed that the vertical buttons on my Kakishibu can pop open under certain tension, especially moving my arms back and putting tension on the front. Hoping it doesn’t get worse as it breaks in. Not really sure why they did vertical rather than horizontal buttons.

                            Thanks both for your informative replies, really appreciate you taking the time.
                            @Darth-fader maybe you posted it earlier in the thread but would you mind sharing your height and weight for comparison?
                            I feel 44 should work out but I’ve seen a these jackets tend to shrink with use and sadly I can’t ask TJ for a “large 44” like I’d do with IH.
                            Part of the journey I guess 🙂
