IHM-39-BLK - Military Serge A2 Deck Jacket - Black

@Giles Cool, thanks for the update; I'll just have to wait to see how the measurements look.
I did make a comparison between the N1 in medium and the oiled A2 you just released in small and they are quite similar apart from the fact that the A2 is much wider.

Have you guys already tried this one out? Is it like last years model where errbody sized down?
I wear a M in everything from IH but some Jackets can be snug (it's always been my impression they were meant to be that way). I don't want a tight jacket, I need to get a sweater under this but over sized won't do either. So, if one were to say, have an N1 in a M which was to fit one perfectly, would you suppose an S in this jacket would be correct? For an additional data point, since you were wondering, the quilted M65 was very snug on me with a flannel or a sweat under.
@Balticob for what its worth Im an XL in IH button up shirts and an XXL in IH truckers....I have last years A2 and I sized down to a Large. I would/will also size down to a L on this.one.
-
It would be nice to see some fit pictures in the sizing comparisons because the A2 has a lining that should be considered also the style is ww2 which is a boxy fit

Those measurements

They’re really good.

@manufc10 Thanks for the feedback. The measurements confirm your statements
Looks like sizing down to a S is the way to go for me. Feels weird to take a small size in IH, normally it's pretty snug but this one is definitely cut differently. Not a bad thing, I often size down to S in American brands or some of the Swedish Americana stuff like Indigofera.
I am really excited for this one! How heavy does this jacket feel compared to the N1? I had an A2 from Buzz Rickson some years ago (in a medium and the measurements are almost identical to the IH A2 in size S), at I really liked how light and soft it was. The problem with that jacket was the zipper, the number of times I gave up trying to zip it up and just buttoned it. Period correct are zippers are cool in theory...ideal and ykk number 8's are the best in real life.

@BalticBob you're welcome. I know if may feel weird but I think sizing down to a small will be the way to go for you. It should fit well enough to where if you wanted to just wear a T-shirt underneath it you could but you will also have enough room to wear a thicker button up or sweater underneath it on those really cold days. At least that's how a L works for me. If I recall correctly I think I'm even able to wear an UHF flannel underneath mine but it's been a year or so since I've worn my A2 ......so don't quote me on that.
-
Oh and I don't own an N1 but I'm going to guess it feels pretty damn close to an N1 as far as warmth and weight go.
-
I’m sticking to a medium on this one I have a Eastman D1 which measures 60cm in the chest and it works for me
-
Got it! Very excited for this one!
-
As if I needed another jacket...so I'll end up getting one anyways haha. I'm going to wait for it to arrive at my Stockist so I can try it on and get one that I like the fit with. Pretty excited because this looks like another great coat.
-
Sold out already so I missed it and the stockist here only got the M. Alas.
-
Holy shit these are going faster than I thought. Had to get and L from a stockist, was not expecting that.
