alright IH fam, what do y'all think of the fit? 165lbs, 5'10", 43"-44" chest. i got a small but am contemplating a medium. i don't intend to layer with this piece, as i'm in cali and have no real need to do so..plus i already own the oiled/lined IH-N1

@Brodie cheers! thanks
-
@Art-Vandelay I'm around the same height/weight and I have a medium, but it's roomy so I can layer flannels etc under it.
I think the small looks great, especially if you're not gonna layer like you mentioned.
-
@Art-Vandelay Tbh, it looks great. If you don't want to layer it, the fit is perfect. I tried sizes L and M, and I went with an L since I want to layer it over some knitwear.

@Art-Vandelay difficult to say how tight the p2p from your pictures. For my personal preference I would miss a bit in length, and also in sleeve length. When you get some further shortening of the sleeves with wear....
-
Doesn't look bad at all, especially as a standalone piece...fit can be subjective...sleeves would "feel" short on me as I move around.

@Art-Vandelay jacket looks good to me.

Thanks, @Jord - The size large arrived over the weekend. The sleeves are pretty much perfect. The body is a bit large with nothing but a tee shirt underneath, but it's not a tent. It feels pretty good with a flannel underneath. I could probably wear the medium just fine, and it would fit better with just a tee, but I'll probably hold on to the large.
For the benefit of others, I'm about 5'10", 168 pounds, 34-35" waist, and I wear a 40R sport/suit coat.

Just got this jacket in and it is a perfect fit everywhere except for the sleeve opening. It fits well once I slide my hand through but it is a tight fit to get my hands in and out.
Anyone have experience with washing jackets with this whipcord material? I know the product page says no further shrinkage but sometimes I have seen people do get some.
If this were to shrink at all, it would be unusable for me. Getting my hands out is more difficult than getting them in. Trying to decide if I am going to keep this one or not unfortunately.
-
@Ral1121 I would hold off on washing this jacket as long as possible, if ever.
-
@Art-Vandelay it fits you perfect

@emilink @Anesthetist @rahrah12 @Tobi @vic_1977 @Jord - thanks much IH fam! I ultimately sent it back in to exchange it for a medium. I know this sounds odd, but it was just a bit too perfect fitting so if i decide to wear even a thermal under it, it's fitted-fitted. i feel that given how close the measurements are between all the sizes, the medium should give me just a little bit more tolerance without looking billowy. i'll be sure to post a fit update as soon as i receive the medium.

@Art-Vandelay I think I would've done the same. knowing what bothers me with sleeves and coats I prefer a bit more room, unless my intention is to wear the item "fitted". Look forward to seeing how the Medium compares.
