Mine arrived yesterday and I couldn’t be happier!
Here together with its type 3 14oz indigo-black brother that has had a couple of dozen wears:

L with copper snaps has been secured. My 295-bb couldn’t stay alone

I received my jacket from Ironheart Germany today but I’m not too happy with it unfortunately. Button spacing seems all over the place, something that shouldn’t happen on a jacket in this price range imho. I know the spacing is different for the top button and the one below but this is on another level. I think I’ll contact Ironheart Germany for an exchange, what do you think?

He who hesitates is lost. I dithered and now the XLs are all gone. Oh well…

Ironheart Germany still has XL available at the moment. I snagged one there earlier today as they were already gone at IHUK.

@Marcel have you run a compare on those jackets, assuming your 14oz ib is from the most recent run? General rule is trust the measurements not the tag size. You can compare items here:

Yes, I did. The 14oz in is indeed from the most recent run. I will go for measurements, a small bit of extra width in waist and p2p won’t harm as it means I can layer it as that is something I most definitely can’t do with my current 526Lod.

Although I was sure I really wanted a 526L as my next jacket, the stiffness of my 526Lod also means I wear that jacket a lot less than my 526j-142ib. I love the way the 19oz L fabric develops over time but if I won’t wear it it’s of no use right? So time to switch to the 21oz version. However the dimensions are slimmer on the shoulders, length and sleeves compared to the jackets I mentioned above, which I both own in L so I’m tempted to grab this in XL. Does that make sense? I’m 1,84m and 78kg. Xl is sold out already but still available elsewhere.

I grabbed the last 32 and it arrived this morning. Perfect fit, slightly snug in the waist but that will be alright after a couple of wears.

Some details of the fabric and a comparison between the overdyed slub of this pants and the overdyed lefty denim of the IH-526Lod.

Although I really like herringbone and handwarmer pockets I'm afraid this will be too similar in appearance to my beloved ihsh-295-bb.

@FlavourFade
The dimensions are pretty much identical for size L but because of the lighter fabric the 14oz feels less restrictive.

I grabbed the last L from Ironheart Germany.
Here together with my 526Lod. The difference in weight and stiffness is huge but I felt the need for a bit more lightweight jacket.

While visiting Arborator in Haarlem last weekend I noticed this model and couldn't help myself and had to try a size 33. Needless to say I was sold so I can call myself the proud owner of another 19oz ironheart denim, next to my 526Lod jacket. The Lod denim is even tougher than the non overdyed denim.

Size L confirmed, now the wait begins! Really looking forward to this one, what a stunning shirt!

I picked up a size 32 of this beautiful duck jeans at Black & Blue in Nijmegen, Netherlands. Due to hot weather I haven't worn them much but so far I like them a lot!

@Marcel Go with your regular size.

I did this morning: order placed and looking forward to breaking in this beautiful beast

I'm on the fence for getting one of these. I have a 777n in size 33 that fits perfect for me, would a size 33 also work with this much heavier fabric?

It's hard to capture the vivid colors of this beautiful shirt but here's my go at it. I have worn the shirt about 15 times and some fades are slowly popping up in the arm creases. No washes or soaks yet.
