This CPO is definitely a top 3 IH product for me. Just keeps getting better and better.

First couple are brand new out of the box. Next are post 2 soaks with a t shirt underneath and the last are post 2 soak with a UHF underneath.

Looking amazing Setanta. Here’s mine a couple weeks in. Been wearing every day and it’s starting to get a little less crunchy. Here with IH-33 and 888 ducks.

Loving this one though. It definitely feels a bit softer than the western.

Just got mine today. Loving it. Way darker in person than the photos, it looks almost black.

I was nervous about the smaller than typical chest measurement for an XL but the guys found me a slightly bigger one.

Photos with a thermal underneath.

Just crossed the 6 month mark with these. Initial soak, couple machine washes.

Hi everyone. Longtime forum lurker, finally decided to contribute. I figured I should make myself useful and try to add some value to the forum for my first post so here goes...this jacket has been on my grail list for a long time but couldn't get my head around how to size given the shrink factor. I wear XL in every IH shirt I own but always have to ask the amazing IH team for the longest body and sleeve XL in stock. That's what drew me to this jacket - the extra body length. Traditional type 3s are just so short on me that I can't get comfortable in them. So after much hemming and hawing I went for an XL and am very pleased with the results. Here are original measurements and post 1 warm soak and post a second warm soak a few days later:

Shoulder: 19.8 -> 19.2 -> 19.0
Chest: 22.6. -> 22.3 -> 22.2
Sleeve: 27.9 -> 27.0 -> 26.8
Waist: 21.1 - > 21.0 -> 21.0
Length: 27.8 -> 27 -> 26.8

I will upload some photos shortly

@Pinkpan - looks great!

Here’s mine about 20 wears in. One machine wash when I got it.

Triple blue today - lefty, indigo kersey and 888 UHR. Almost four weeks into this jacket and loving the start of these electric blue fades.

@worntofade - thanks man, appreciate it. I followed your journey with the lefty and it definitely influenced my sizing choice. You and I are very similar measurements wise. I'm 6 ft 195, 42 inch chest, 34 waist. It seemed to me you went 1 size too big, especially given how perfectly fitted your shirts and jeans are. Love your style.

I am surprised how little mine is bleeding / crocking on either side. My hands were practically blue after every time I touched my lefty type 3.

@catdad1 Sleeves are one of the most important measurements for me and I ask the guys at the shop to please find me the longest XL sleeve in stock. I usually need at least 26.5, preferably 27. The measurements on this drop made me nervous but they found one with a 26.3 sleeve so I took a chance.

What is the sleeve length?
