@Nostradamion only by a tiny bit. Ask the guys first the closest sleeve possible to 26” and they will confirm what they have found before shipping. When I got mine in last run sleeves were a silly length too but rivet and hide had one nearly an inch shorter

About 3 Months wear over a year and a half and 3 washes on mine. A must have jacket!

@indigo_fades behind SBG, quickest IH faders by a mile

@triaz same issue with my A2. Have to get it dead straight

More tonal stitching jeans

@twin just wondering twin, do you live in the forest?!

@worn2fade shoulders were too tight, chest too big (for a spring/autumn jacket), sleeves slightly too short and cuffs too tight.

@worn2fade am normally an XL but sized down as the chest would have been nearly 25”

@Skell6009 IH and large. Was when it came out

Loved this but had to return it as strange sizing. Hopefully will be tweaked for a future release.

Easily the best socks I have had. Retain their shape wash after wash

@Danimal506 Rivet & Hide have all sizes

@CosmoSix5 too stiff for me. Have my type 3 ib which is progressing nicely and my 777 ib to scratch the ib fade itch!

@tenuin weird eh. On my IHSH33 run before this and my CPO OD they are as close to spot on as can be and unnoticeable to the eye. The CPO is identical on both sides as is my RRL and UES shirt . Just checked my RGT western and it’s 1/2 inch out - never noticed until you said

Thought I would give my thoughts on this. A solid 8/10. More than warm enough for the UK and whilst the oiled has only come into use twice out of many wears it has held up to the rain admirably and wiped straight off. Wasn’t a fan of the oiled version to start but now it has worn off slightly it looks much better.
A couple of niggles though. The central button on the breast pocket is a major design flaw as the left hand side sticks up annoyingly within seconds of brisk walking. It needed a popper on either side, not just the middle. The waist cinches are useless as they revert back to loose within seconds of tightening. Would have loved an inside pocket too and the zip can be a royal pain in the butt to do up but all in all a decent coat and has held up to many a dog walk.

@SamD thanks Sam and Happy New Year

Is this as stiff as the 14oz or softer like the OD CPO?

So tempted in this but I find denim jackets near impossible to fade unless you have a manual job. If I am an XL in the IB type 3 would those who have this recommend a large or XL after shrinkage?

@northsouthdenimguy not sure why you say that. On my OD CPO and ISH 33 previous run they are the same either side. As are all my other shirts regardless of brand.

Been wearing this since release and spot on fit etc but just noticed this and now can’t unsee it! Reminds me of the pic of the 18oz CPO and looking at stock pics of the denim restocks they are all off. Not sure why. Not overly fussed but not what I would expect do a near £300 shirt
