      The sleeves are too short for me on 50% of our tops. Can't be all things to all men, unfortunately

        @Stuart.T:

        I'd love to take a straw poll of just how many IH customers ride motorbikes compared to those that don't.

        In Japan, pretty much all of them. Rest of the world less so. But that isn’t the point, the point is the designer wants them that way. And as you say, the T-Rex’s amongst us generally find that the plus points with IH gear far outweigh an inch too much on the sleeves.

        Also @Alex has gorilla arms [emoji1]

          It is technically possible to shorten a sleeve that is too long, it is impossible to lengthen a sleeve that is too short.  So whilst we could spec shorter sleeves on some of our western shirts/jackets, it is just not a sensible thing to do.

            This ^^^^

            I love love love the longer sleeve length on IH tees.  I'm a bit on the gorilla arm side so it works…plus it's much easier to get away with a shirt that has longer sleeve lengths than too short.  Nothing worse than sleeves that are too short.

              I shall take it out on a spin on the hog* this morning.

              Not really. It's a 49cc moped.

                Looks like the right size layered up like that. I like the combo with the gray marl and IHSH-138 too. Flip those cuffs and your arm length will be right too.

                    Thanks! The jeans have had four years of wear on them, so this will take some time!

                          I have and love the 526J but I've grown to adore those side pockets in my double duck 526 and the Lod.  As someone who has his pants pockets stuffed, I've really come to rely on these jacket pockets to store my keys when I don't have my belted key clip with me.  I think I'm going to pick one of these up when the restock hits.

                            Heya G, do you happen to have a closer approximation on this date?  I promise I'll only ask once a week until they're back in stock 😃

                                    You know, SE has it, but it's a little less expensive if I get it from IHUK, and I can wait until October.  Plus the IHUK crew is amazing about measurements!  If November rolls around and it's still not restocked at IHUK, I'll probably pick it up from SE.

                                      Forgot that SE has this. I've debated between the 21oz over the 14oz and still can't decide.

                                        I was thinking of the 14oz as well but as a short-armed broad dude, the measurements on the 21oz work a lot better for me.  The sleeves are almost an inch longer on the 14oz.

                                        I was thinking about it some more and I think I might end up picking the jacket up locally.  I might make this the excuse to finally visit the Los Angeles store.  It's about 30 minutes from my work, but it'll be neat to see.  I've been eyeing one of those Good Art Hollywood rings, too…

                                          By LA standards, isn't 30 minutes considered basically next door?

                                          SELA is worth the visit, by the way.  It's their largest store (I think) and has lots of fun stuff to check out.

                                            Ha, yes, it's 10 miles away.  There's a saying that everything in LA is a 30 minute drive away.  I'm checking with them now to see if they have one of those in a large in their LA store.  I have a feeling I'm going to walk out of there with a melted credit card.

                                            I've been to the SF store once but couldn't stick around long or my wife would start to notice the price tags on the stuff that fills my closets 😃
