Self Edge x Iron Heart Type III = SEXIH22TYPEIII

[FurattoHeddo]

Would that be a 44?

[Finn666]

damn, this thing looks thick as hell…how's the feeling when wearing summer?

[summ3rhays]

Yes, I have the 44.

Just measured at my desk.  18" give or take 1/4" across the front of the shoulders measured the way SE states.  The 44 is listed at 18".  They measure differently from IH in this way.  I'm hoping that the body and shoulders slim down slightly with most of the shrinkage in the length & sleeves.  In my mind that should be logical so it will probably be the other way around.

Feels nice and crispy.  It's damn thick, but I think once it's broken in it will be a great weight.  I plan to wear with tshirts and short sleeve shirts in the spring. Fingers crossed.

Looking pretty good there summ3r.
I think it'll fit great after soak.

^^Agreed!!^^

Once broken in and after its 1st proper wash, it'll be perfect!!! At least that's what i've experienced with my IH type 3. Congrats guys!!

From these pics the arms on the SEXIH22 are a bit fuller than the Lefty Trucker. Glad I went with the LT.

Post soak. 20 mins warm-hot water with a touch of Dr Bonners to loosen it up. Not 100% dry but I couldn't resist trying it on.

this tends to be the case…Giles/Kiya, do you know why?

[seanocono]

I'm guessing you're really happy with the fit, summ3r. I certainly would be.

Chewie & summ3r, anybody measured pre/post soaking? How much shrinkage did you guys get?

Perfect fit Summ3r!

That is a stiff bastard indeed. Fit looks great, even though I like type 3s to end slightly over the belt…

[theorocks]

Great fit summ …is that a samurai sweatshirt?

[summ3rhays]

Thanks everyone.

No theorocks, it's an old Nudie sweat. My jacket wasn't 100% dry and I didn't want one of my favorite FH shirts turning blue.
