IHM-31-NAV - Whipcord Pea Coat - Navy

[Chaintitch]

When I say "longer side', I simply mean 'covers one's ass'; not like, knee length.

I certainly agree that tiny collars are fully out of control…  But I favor neither exaggeration, large nor small; 'tis a matter of good proportion, old chap.    The eye knows it when it sees it...  ???

I've been looking for a pea coat for quite some time now and am now considering this beautiful piece (or the Melton Wool version).

I want to make sure I get the fit right and being an absolute newbie to IH jackets I though I'd ask you for help.

There are only 3XL (Whipcord) and 2XL/3XL (Melton) left, so at least there's not many room for confusion. Either they fit, or they don't.  :o

As a reference I made up a table which includes some shirts I own and - most importantly - a wool coat that fits me perfectly. All measures taken with IH method.

I wear all Western Shirts with a Tee or thin long sleeve underneath. The 3XL Wabash has enough room to even wear it as a jacket with a Tee and Sweater underneath.

My only concern with the Pea Coats really are Shoulders and P2P being too large.
The thickness of the fabric plays a role here too, I would assume?
Any experience on how Western Shirt sizing transfers to this Pea Coat?

Any advice is appreciated!

Welcome to the forum @weftyarn. Hard to say what would work. That is a very well put together table, but it is comparing apples to oranges, to a degree.

I can say this, I am a «small» XL in most IH shirts. I normally take an L in heavy IH jackets. XL’s work, but only with layers under. Based on that I’d say the melton wool jacket in XXL would be good for you as it is XXL and it seems you are between XXL and XXXL in shirts.

Wow, thanks for the rocket-fast reply! I understand your point regarding the table. But I think you read it exactly like I hoped you would.

My stomach feeling was also to go for the Melton XXL with its more narrow shoulder. Now I only need to figure if I like the silhouette. I just would have loved that Whipcord‘s cut plus the Alpaca lining

Anyone with a Whipcord XXL looking to sell/exchange?

[weftyarn]

Still lurking around on this beauty and slowly but surely it’s getting colder here in Munich ..

Before I pull the trigger:

Would someone from the IH CREW be so kind to take shoulder and p2p measures of the two 3XL coats?  ::)
Am I supposed to ask for such things via PM, or is it okay via the thread?

Greets and have a nice weekend

@Alex wondering if this will be produced again in the foreseeable future?

[tody]

@SKT Would you be happy with a medium? There‘s one floating around here im Germany.

[SKT]

@tody whoa…I’m basically between a large and medium according to the charts. Thanks man, I’ll reach out with a pm for the details.

[emilink]

Hi team, do you think this coat will be in future seasons? Many thanks and have a great weekend

[Alex]

Maybe, but a wool one will be sooner!
