I have been very happy with my purchase even though I originally wanted the OD.
I have been very happy with my purchase even though I originally wanted the OD.
Went ahead and got XXXL. First I thought that I might have been better off with SP-Large but after almost 2 weeks of non-stop wear It has stopped squeaking and maybe stretched a centimeter or two in some places. Will try to get as much wear before it gets too cold here because this is definitely a ''Wear with a t-shirt'' jacket for me.
Now very happy with my purchase and It's already a favorite after the initial quite brutal break in period.
Happy owner of two IH type 3s now, this and a SP-Large Superblack ( Both serve a purpose ).
It's officially RJ-1 season here in the north now that Autumn is creeping in.
I had size XL previously but I either got some gains or it shrunk. Gave it to my father. Jackets typically get passed down the other way around heh but I am glad I could give something back.
Got an XXL in the spring to replace because let's face it it's an awesome jacket. I was first worried that I was actually between sizes but I like the extra room for layering. Like with the CPO here.
Daydreaming about the UnTucked trifecta. Hope it gets completed soon so I can get my first.
@JerkStore How else is one to fade multiple shirts at the same time
Those are some really nice photos. Good job with the marketing for FW25.
This could be a must have for me personally. I got bit by the IH bug some time ago after getting the IH-9526PJ and I love how the 21oz feels.
Also had to get the indigo CPO from the SelfEdge collab, because I wanted a western. I love the CPO, because after the breaking in period it is way more forgiving on my forearms than the 295-BB (which I had to sell due the sleeves just being way too tight around my forearms). So lacking a black shirt
I think the work cut could maybe work better for me + the 21oz + pockets. So now I am thinking: CPO + 21oz + Work Shirt = Yes please.
I know there's no point to document any progress for a non-fade but I am looking forward to seeing some more pics of the sample if possible!
@CosmoSix5 I think the one on the right is just for comparison.
@Alex Nice! You don't normally think that something might fit the ladies as well. But seeing this photo I now think maybe an size XS would have actually been a nice gift for my lady.
I Once found a second hand smaller size burgundy UHF and It's gotten so much wear!
Maybe there will be a sudden wave of restocks sometime during autumn
The heavy waxed version of RJ-1 is out. Really considering it at the moment. Measurements say it's a bit shorter in my usual size too which would be great.
I always thought I'd go with the 20oz and now it's available.
I see many people with multiple different colour RJ-1s here but for me it still needs a bit of justifying. I am thinking that a good justification to get it is that it could be that being 20 oz and all it would get even more wear in the northern climate since the season for the 10oz on it's own is quite short.
Sometimes in northern europe its from shorts and t-shirt to a winter jacket in just a few weeks.
The Boss was wearing one ( I think ) in his blog. Could it be a sign?

@akohut I am XL in all my Freenote shirts. I originally had a XL riders jacket and it fit quite slim in my opinion and I couldn't really layer with it unless it was a lighter weight shirt or a thermal and still the sleeves would be a little too short for me.
When I later went up a size I could layer really comfortably but the jump was so big I can't wear my XXL with a t-shirt without it looking too baggy. I guess am just between sizes but I prefer the extra room over it being too tight.
I do see it would be a great jacket just over a t-shirt as well but I don't like the feel of the satin sleeves on bare skin even though I understand their purpose is to make it easier to put the jacket on.
I do wonder if there are any slight variations in the sizing with these and if they either tighten up and or stretch over the years (depending on what weather etc they are exposed to).
@hjl360 Maybe the amount of wax, maybe the lighting when they take photos.
My previous Oak colored one lightened up significantly after just 2 weeks in England when visiting (caught in the rain).
@Jose-Juan I wish But considering all the FW25 changed to that too it could just be added to all future releases. 2027 was said smh. Saving up for this will definitely be rewarding since it will be the opposite of instant gratification.
