@Sunnergren yeah all good. I'm really happy with how these turned out!

Special thanks to Alex F. for getting the measurements I needed! Fits just how I like my truckers. Highly recommend this jacket to anyone on the fence.

PS @worn2fade I soaked two 526Ls both within the the recommended IH temp (30-40C) 1hr, then into the machine for a gentle wash on cold no spin. Both jackets .5 inches off the shoulders, 1 inch off the length sleeves/body. Chest shrinkage was minimal.

I'm finally getting my IH shirt fit down with a couple of hard misses and some special help from the IH crew. Sold those off and picked up this one and really dig the fit! It's ever so slightly snug in the chest and shoulders, but not restrictive or uncomfortable. Shoulders are the constant issue that I found I need to get dialed in with these shirts as they seem to run narrow. It's the perfect weight to wear under my type iii jacket. Glad I was able to find measurements on the 33 that worked because I was told no more from that line coming in 2025.

@Tobi I think the jacket looks perfect. It depends on what you like though. I personally like my trucker jackets to fit slim and hit at the waist or close to. I also don't like to wear bulky clothing underneath. If I want to layer, I layer a parka over the trucker. That's just what I prefer. This one runs pretty long in the torso, even longer than the other modified type iii's I've noticed. I was just in a similar situation with these jackets. I decided to size down because the body length was just too much. I was concerned with sleeve length as well because they hit right at the wrist and I think that's perfect, but was concerned about the creasing and it riding up. The IH crew assured me the sleeves would not come up much at all especially when the jacket wears in. The bit of natural stretching/relaxing offsets the creasing in the sleeves. Time will tell. I really like how mine is fitting now.

First pair of 21oz 888s and they're fantastic! I tried getting into the 777s and 666s, but they were incredibly tight on my legs. This cut feels much better. I had concerns that these would be too tight as well, but after a couple hours they have loosened up already and are very comfortable. Thanks again @Alex for the last minute fit advice!

@worn2fade looks great!

With all these presoak photos I realized I should have posted mine.

A type iii in 18oz vintage fabric would be cool.

@AskAxel did you put them in the wash after you soaked them? If not you should do that. It's the agitation that will shrink them more. I soaked at 35c (I read later 30c is better to avoid marbling, but mine were fine) for an hour, then washed delicate no spin or detergent. They shrunk exactly the amount stated on the website. 2 inches in length, 1 inch in the waist, .5 inches in the thigh.

@MassiveThighs wear a parka over it.

@Brandrea I agree with @Chibs. They're two different things. Do you want a jacket, shirt or both? The CPO is basically a denim jacket that looks like a shirt. If you already are wearing a denim jacket get the 33. I actually just picked one up. I was looking at picking up the 293, but it would never get worn because my 526L type iii jacket is getting the wear. The 33 works perfectly under the jacket. It's a lot lighter and more like a typical casual dress shirt. But if you need both, get both.

@Sunnergren thanks! They ended up shrinking as stated on the website, pretty exact actually. They feel great. Yeah totally stoked on these. And thanks IH crew for pulling this pair for me.

@Sunnergren yeah all good. I'm really happy with how these turned out!

@Sunnergren thanks man! They are still very wet, but the thigh shrunk .6 inches. That's too much. I'm hoping that measurement changes when it is fully dried or at least when I wear them. I remember my 526L measurements were more drastic vs when they dried it was much less.

@cyclops interesting. That's not what it says on this IH website page. I soaked at about 95 degrees. It says 40C on the website for the raw denim. We'll see. Thanks

UHR veterans. Does this fit and cut look right? The waist feels snug, but comfortable right now. The thighs feel ok. Slight tension on the knees when I sit, but not uncomfortable. Can't tell if the top block/ seat is good since I don't know how they'll be post soak/wash? They seem like they'll be pretty damn tight after the wash though. Thoughts, good fit or not?

@RocknRoll the arm twist is normal and I think it's on all the Lefty jackets. I think it's a characteristic of the left hand twill denim. On the 19oz lefty jeans description it says they will twist in the leg. When you give it a soak and a wash (no soap), it will get softer. Wear it a lot and it will break in.

My 526L is my favorite Iron Heart piece to date. It's an awesome jacket. Enjoy!

@Sunnergren good to know. Yours are looking great

@Rangadello great fit, you did well on that one!

@Sunnergren wow they stretched past the pre-wash measurements, good to know. Thanks!
