I missed out on the IH drop, but found a Large at a US retailer. Should be in the house by end of week to add to my black overdye CPO and black moleskin CPO!

RE: IHSH-436-RED - Ultra Heavy Flannel American Check Western Shirt - Red "The Watermelon Man"posted in Shirting
I just snagged a Large at Berkeley Supply in Denver (11:40 a.m. MST). I wasn't planning on getting this one, but it's the only UHF that got my attention this season. Hopefully, it will land here at the house in a day or so.

RE: IHM-53-ODG - 12oz Whipcord Lightweight N1 Deck Jacket - Olive Drab Greenposted in Jackets
Thanks, @Jord - The size large arrived over the weekend. The sleeves are pretty much perfect. The body is a bit large with nothing but a tee shirt underneath, but it's not a tent. It feels pretty good with a flannel underneath. I could probably wear the medium just fine, and it would fit better with just a tee, but I'll probably hold on to the large.
For the benefit of others, I'm about 5'10", 168 pounds, 34-35" waist, and I wear a 40R sport/suit coat.

RE: Where does everyone live?posted in Some Really Boring (but useful) and Some Really Interesting Stuff!
Hello all - I've been registered for a while, but haven't posted a lot. I'm probably one of the few "senior" members on the forum, and I enjoy the variety of jeans offered by IH (888 is good for the older physique…lol). I am also getting a pretty good collection of IH denim shirts, CPO shirts, and UHF shirts. The UHFs are great for our weather here on the Colorado Front Range. Cheers!

Looks great, @SaddleSC. Now there's at least two of these in Colorado!

@Zinc2162 I wear a large, and mine fits me pretty much the same way as the medium fits you. I think the medium looks good on you.
Some people like to layer a flannel under these, but that's not how I like to wear mine. I usually layer a colored tee shirt (mainly short sleeve) under mine and wear it like a heavy shirt, or unsnapped like a shirt-jacket. If the fit bothers you, you could size up, but bear in mind that there shouldn't be shrinkage in this garment due to the overdye process.

Looks good on you, @Bigdog. Glad to hear it's loosening a bit. Nice looking pup in your avatar, too.

A beautiful bright blue....and in a work shirt. This is probably going to be UHF #10 for me...

Size large incoming to Colorado. Hopefully, sizing is similar to my other IH CPOs....it seemed close.

@CosmoSix5 Saw that earlier - Self Edge must have received a good shipment. I was about to order from SE, then found one at Berkeley Supply in Denver (I live an hour south).

RE: IHM-53-ODG - 12oz Whipcord Lightweight N1 Deck Jacket - Olive Drab Greenposted in Jackets
My Lightweight N1 arrives today. I wear a Large in UHF shirts and XL in IH's Type III denim jackets, and I went with a Large in the N1. It looks like the Large is only slightly larger than the medium, so I'm hoping it works. I'm sure I could wear a medium, but I wanted the longer sleeves and a little extra room.

RE: SEXIH25-TIII - Self Edge x Iron Heart 19oz Denim Modified Type III Jacketposted in Jackets
I have one of these en route. I wear a 42/XL in other IH denim jackets, so I'm hoping this one fits nicely. It will be interesting to compare it to the 19 oz. left hand twill. The LHT is substantial and stiff, so I'm hoping the weave on this one has a different look and feel. Hopefully, I'll have it in hand by the coming weekend as the weather cools a bit here in Colorado.

RE: IHJ-49 - Split Steer Modified Type III Jacket - Black or Brownposted in Jackets
@Mizmazzle Well, I'm about where you are. 25-26" (or 34" in a dress shirt) is my general sleeve length. I'll have to think on this one and see if we have someone local that I would trust to alter. Thanks for the quick reply!
-
RE: IHJ-49 - Split Steer Modified Type III Jacket - Black or Brownposted in Jackets
@Mizmazzle What is your typical sleeve length?
I wear a L in virtually all of my IH shirts, so I'm thinking I want a L in this jacket. The sleeve length is pretty crazy, though. I have kinda long arms, so maybe the L will work. Even the Medium has a long sleeve length, but for me, a little too long is better than a sleeve that rides up when you reach across a table. Thanks!

That's a good fit, @Denimminer - my fit is very similar. I plan to wear mine over a T shirt, and I like having some room to move.

@CosmoSix5, I just misted mine heavily with water and threw it in the dryer. Hoping that all that tumbling will help with the stiffness...hah!
