@pjroo33 This is my favorite IH Type III of all time...I am surprised you would need to go up to XXL to layer a UHF underneath. I am 5'10" around 172lbs and I have the Size L and can comfortably layer a thermal or light sweater under it. I have no doubt the XL would afford plenty of room for a UHF.

In any event, the jacket looks great on you...I wouldn't size up any further IMO!

I’m a little surprised as well. I will take some measurements and see what the difference really is. The XL is definitely as “fitted” as I would be comfortable with.

@pjroo33 I’m just about the same measurements as you; I’m 5’10 and 180 pounds. Is there any chance you could post pics wearing the XXL? I’ve only seen it available in XXL and I’d like to know beforehand that I’m not going to be swimming in it. Any pics you can post would be greatly appreciated.

Been wanting to post these for a while. Couple of “firsts” for me with this jacket. First type 3 EVER. First OD from Iron Heart. Maybe the coolest thing I own… inspired by all you guys in this thread. Special thanks to the guys at IHUK too, especially @Graham @AdamJ @SamD for their help and awesome fits with this beast. Went with a large, my UHF size and I think it’s spot on. Really just love it

@SKT Awesome fit and looks really good on you!! Enjoy

[SKT]

@goosehd thank man…Christmas came a bit early!

Looks killer @SKT

[SKT]

@jerkules thanks. Happy to finally be able to join this club

[Nostradamion]

@SKT that looks great on you!! If you don’t mind, could I get your chest size and how tall you are?

[Mizmazzle]

@SKT badass fit buddy!!

[SKT]

@Mizmazzle thanks man…now I get what all the fuss is about with this denim! Amazing stuff!

@Nostradamion I’m 5’9”, with a 41” chest. I usually look for just over 22” p2p for shirts. I can wear this over a UHF with a trim fit. I could NOT wear this size over an IH hoodie or similar. Would need an XL. Hope that helps and good luck!

@SKT looks really perfect congrats

[Nostradamion]

@SKT thanks for the info; that really helps. Closest I’ve been able to find is an XXL and while it’s not that much bigger than an XL on paper, my fear is that it would be too big. Guess I’m going to need to wait for restock at Iron Heart.

Bloody perfect @SKT looks amazing man! Going to wear mine tomorrow now for sure!

[SKT]

@Graham Thanks man, I’ve never had anything like it. So glad I was able to get one before this batch got snatched up!

[AdamJ]

@SKT Nice one man, hope you enjoy!

@SKT Love that on you! Forgot how dark these things are when new..

Perfect fit right here.

[Nostradamion]

@jerkules the jacket looks great; fit is good and it looks like you have the extra room you’re looking for. Would you mind letting me know your measurements? I’m only finding this jacket in an XXL as well and am not sure if it will be too big for me. I have a 42 inch chest, and once I layer a t-shirt and flannel (usually Outerknown blanket flannel shirts) my chest goes up to just over 44. I’m 5’10” and 180. Don’t know if I should chance it, or just wait for restock whenever that may be.

Any info you can provide is appreciated.

@Nostradamion In my opinion it will be too big. Same dimensions as you, but 43" chest and I wear xl's...

[DeeDee85]

@Nostradamion I completely agree with @goosehd you would be better waiting for the re-stock. The most recent batch of lefty’s ran a little large too. For reference I wear UHF’s in a XXL and my XXL OD lefty fits me with an undershirt and a UHF or Kersey under it. If you wear an L or XL in iron heart shirts you’ll be swimming in a XXL OD lefty..

[Nostradamion]

@DeeDee85 thanks much for the feedback. Patience is a virtue; hopefully it won’t be too long for restock.
