If it helps I found this jacket a more forgiving fit than its denim counterparts. It comes up shorter and slightly wider, meaning it can fit layers under, but not look bulky when worn just with a tee. It also goes with everything.

Just brought a L 

I need to pick up an XL. I had an XXL that was too big for me but I miss it.

[Richard]

Arrived today. Brought yesterday. Thanks fellas. Really lovely, I think. Layered and with a t shirt. And, more importantly, my partner loves it too. Lol.

[neph93]

Perfect @Richard Well done.

[Richard]

Cheers, @neph93

I tried my OD CPO over it……

Layering like a man after my own heart. Duck and OD are a quality combo.

@Alex, @Giles, I realized these were just restocked in July but any idea when a fresh restock is coming?  I'm looking for an XXL.

[Alex]

It's on the list of things to redo, but not yet being redone. 5-7 months out

Thanks @Alex.

Took a shot on my first IH type III. I was worried about the color from the online photos, but I love the color in person. I also love the fit and feel-this is the most pliable heavy duck I have worn.  Every new piece I buy leads me to the next item to covet!

Maybe my favourite type III. Looks great. And the addiction is real btw [emoji1]

I received the IH-2526J in size small today. It's a very nice jacket! It's my first real jacket. The material is really nice and I think the duck goes fantastic with jeans (in the pic it's IH-888S-SLB).

However I'm not sure if I am too tall for it. Does it fit me? It feels way too short but maybe I just need to get used to it (and buy shorter tees to go along with it?).

| Model | Material | Weight | Type | Length IN for small | Length CM for small |
| IH-2526J | Duck | 17oz | Modified Type III | 22.3 | 56.6 |
| IHJ-507-SLB | Denim | 16oz | Type II | 22.8 | 57.9 |
| IH-526J-22 | Denim | 22oz | Type III | 23.4 | 59.4 |
| IH-526PJ | Denim | 21oz | Modified Type III | 23.7 | 60.2 |
| IH-526J-142 | Denim | 14oz | Modified Type III | 23.7 | 60.2 |
| IH-526L | Left-Hand Twill Denim | 19oz | Modified Type III | 25.0 | 63.5 |

Did I size wrong? This is a small and maybe I could get away with a medium, that would give a tad more length to the body and arms. Though there is plenty of space in the chest/waist/opening already.

[neph93]

This is all personal opinion, but I think type III’s can definitely be worn like that. It will look fantastic with shorter tees, or tucked tee’s with a nice belt.

As for the comfort, the duck is pretty gnarly when new, but softens nicely, somit could just be the fabric. However, if it is tight in the shoulders, armholes or across the chest, it is too small.
