I think I’d agree. If I were forced to keep only one right now it would be the xxl and we are very similar in size.
-
@DeeDee85 Hey there. I wear a large in the Outerknown “Blanket Shirt” flannels. This leads me to believe that maybe the XL would be a better fit.
-
@Nostradamion I know you're pretty determined to get one of these jackets and I understand the want. It happens to all of us on one occasion or another.
There are a couple of ways to approach this:
- Wait until the XL comes in
- Purchase the XXL now and see if it will work for you. You may get lucky and it's exactly what you're looking for. If it doesn't you should be able to flip it on the secondary market. From my best guesstimate, you'll probably take a loss on it. How much I don't know and maybe someone else can chime in.
- Try to find one on the secondary market to satisfy your wants.
There has been a bit of conflicting advice on sizing and in my opinion, none wrong or right, as it all boils down to personal preference.
For me, the cost of the jacket is fairly expensive and I don't want to see you make a purchase that you're unhappy with.
Just my $.02

@goosehd Great assessment and succinct observations. I’m going to wait until the XL comes back in stock (which may be awhile) so I don’t end up losing a lot of money. Patience is difficult but in the end, I think waiting for the XL will be worth the wait. Thanks again for your feedback.

Hey everyone! This is my first real post here besides the newbie thread. Just got my 19 oz lefty OD. I was lurking for quite some time and this thread kept me sleepless until I bought the jacket. Now the lefty made me sign up here to share my love for this awesome piece
Cheers

@FlavourFade nice one mate, great score!
-
@FlavourFade welcome. Looks like you’ve made a good start. Love the idea of “the lefty made me do it”. I don’t think any IH type IIIs are actually cursed (but maybe @denim-dawg could have some fun with this idea in his next short film).

My passion for Iron Heart is not new but this jacket is really something special to me. I love that it has a slightly longer body than other Type III Jackets and that even new it already is so full of little spots where you can discover many different colours. I also like that it is not looking so "sterile" like a brandnew pair of jeans if you know what I mean? That makes it easier for me to pair it with my new 777s
