Thanks guys! I wear an XL on all my UHFs and on my slubby type II but an L on my N1 deck Jacket, my Hickory western shirt and my 18oz vintage CPO. So maybe an XL on the lefty? I‘ll also check with Graham.

Finally got mine last week and I've been wearing it as much as possible (I'll get some images ASAP). I love the 25oz denim so I was thinking it can't be that robust, right? I 'get it' now. It's a beast of a garment, a for-life piece if ever there was one. Did a hot soak and followed the advice some of you gave me. I think this jacket demands commitment but something about the quality of it, you can tell if you stay the course the rewards will be great and that's evident by some of the images above.
I'm an XL is all IH denim western shirts and usually ask the boys for one of the smaller P2P measurements on an XXL UHF. I went XXL for this jacket and found it hit the sweet spot to wear just with a shirt or layer with a hoodie. I'm a taller guy and love the length of the sleeves on it.

Exactly. What I did size up and soak it in hot water
Definitely this

@Salted-Racer awesome man glad you were able to get one. It is a lifetime jacket for sure, I only have one denim Type III and do not plan on getting another! It's a glorious gem albeit uncut and raw.

@Oaktavia Thanks, brother. I tend to be a bit of a collector but this piece really demands attention. I'm going to second what you say: This and my Wills (when it comes) will be my jackets and that's it for quite a while. : )

Thanks for the help everyone!
-
@Salted-Racer nice you found one man! It’s a killer jacket! Rock it hard

Today I’m leaning more towards this lefty! See what happens in 15 minutes. That extractor might win over.
