I got an order in for a truck rider in espresso horsehide. Veg tanned Horween. I am very excited!

@John-Galt I'm just one person too... But I'm with you 100%. 12 out of 14 of my IH western shirts are size L. The other 2 are XL. This is looking like a medium would be just on the larger size for me, but doable... if not for those sleeves! Bummer, I was really looking forward to this one. I'll inquire about a medium with longer sleeves, but honestly, I'd need another inch, and that seems unlikely.

@Rustygate37 bummer! No, I haven't tried to do anything about it yet. We'll see... I'll report back if I end up altering it.

@xaqh I'm with you 100% on those tiny sleeve openings! I am a very similar height, weight, and chest, and went with L. I've just been treating my jacket and hoodie as one and it's not too bad. But I've found a UHF cuff under there to be almost impossible! The sleeve opening is my only complaint about this beauty. I might try opening and resewing one of the seams in the cuffs at some point, to give them a slit. For now though, just gonna accept these tiny little sleeve holes, because everything else about this jacket is just chefs kiss!

Yay for brown! Very excited for this one.

I love this brown-quickly-overdyed color! If the lining were wool it would be a must have for me. I just have a hard time with synthetic material in clothing...

@Chibs Good call... yeah it actually feels great with a hoodie! I could probably use to lose a few pounds in the belly... but that hoodie test gives me confidence that I got the right size. Thanks!

I could use some reassurance that I made the right sizing choice here... how do you all think this XL fits? I'm sure it will feel a lot better after a few wears... but it feels a little snug right now.

XL ordered! This will be my 6th IH type 3, but first Indigo...Now I just need to try and not look too closely at the SExIH25 next week!

Excellent, thank you both for the info!

@Alex Obviously I should go off the measurements here, not the size, but just curious - what size would a tag 42 be? Normally I get my type 3s in L which is tag 42 (with the exception of my OD 19oz lefty, which was XL). Based on these measurements, I'm leaning towards an XL - just wondering what the tag sizes are. Also, I am aware that these measurements may be updated soon. Thanks!

Sophomore album from the band Weite, a Berlin based band that you could call an Elder side project. Good stuff.

Prometheus Lights BetaQRv3 - in brass and copper. Fantastic little lights🤌

@goosehd I've only been wearing it for a few hours, but so far I am really enjoying it. It looks and feels very new... but that should take care of itself in time, and I think it's really going to age nicely. The dial size feel just perfect, and the build and material seem very solid and high quality. The matte finish of the bronze is very nice. Strap is comfortable. I love how thin this watch is (~9mm I think). If I had one complaint it would be that the lug-to-lug measurement is a little long. It would fit on my wrist a bit better if this measurement were a little shorter. And if I ever go without a nato strap, there is likely going to be a bit of a gap there. But I am perfectly happy with this strap. And overall, I am very happy with this watch.

I just got a watch! Hamilton khaki field in bronze. I've never really had a watch before. This one should age nicely.

@endo yes, that's the stuff!

@Mizmazzle totally... the quality is next level.

Happy new member of the Viberg club! 2030 in C.F. Stead 'Antique Phoenix'.

@Heavy_blue Thanks!
