Picked up mine from Franklin & Poe today. Thankfully they had a few sizes. I normally take a XXL in shirts but sometimes an XL for boxy cuts (like mechanics shirts). I tried the L and XL. The sleeves were perfect in the L but gave me little wiggle room for anything beyond a thin shirt. So I went with the XL. Everything is great, fits well with a flannel or a T. Sleeves are longer but the storm cuffs and additional button really make it comfortable regardless. The fabric is interesting as in different lights it can look like there are stains but it's just some variation in how the light plays off of the fabric mixed with some slight variation in texture. I love it and will be with me for a long time.

@Heavy_blue here's a fit pic. I appreciate any thoughts you have.

I picked up a pair of the 633 OD in early August and just started wearing them yesterday. These are really great. The denim is so interesting. I was surprised at how little mine actually taper. I got to try them on so I knew already but the website measurements are about .75" smaller at the leg opening then on my actual pair. I am actually pretty happy with this as I prefer the larger opening. I took my normal 36" and they were tighter at the waist than my 555 but have already stretched enough after a day.

@Blanco I can’t seem to find the proper reference, but you need to feed the paracord through the eyelets and jacket. There is a tool that you can use, use a straightened clothes hanger with the paracord taped to it, or feed it through by hand.

It’s not hard and only takes time. It’s the same as retreading the string into a hoodie.

Ok thank you. I've run a Paracord through a pair of shorts using a safety pin that I can feel through the fabric and push it through so I'll try that if I feel the need. I just saw reference and checked mine.

Has anyone added the paracord to your jacket after it's in your hands? Wondering where to find the tools/materials

Does it come with the cord? I didn't get one with mine.

@goosehd thanks! I'm always a bit paranoid about sizing so I held out to be able to try it on before they sold out.

@Blanco What's an "EDC?"

Everyday Carry. It's basically a hobbyist community of people who use and collect pocket stuff. Lots of times they come from very small companies or individuals and the drops sell out in seconds or minutes.

I was able to get one. I'm a bit concerned on size at the moment but glad to score. I didn't see how long they took to sell out. I was operating under the assumption I had seconds and I've gotten good at drops like this from the EDC community.

Thanks all. I appreciate the feedback.

I just got one of these delivered and even though it looks good on me the chest is a little snug depending on movement. I already sized up and there are no bigger sizes available so I'm curious if it will stretch at all to add some comfort.
