Very happy with this.
Here is the XXXXL over my 33 in XXL.
I can now do up this jacket absolutely fine, and it doesn’t appear to be too ‘baggy’ either.

I now own IH clothing ranging from XL to XXXXL! Just shows, the dims are your friend, not the tag.

Size XL fits great. Normally I'm a Large.

@bluemantra Looks perfect!

I really wish the P2P and waist wasn't so slim in this. I love the fabric (I've got he N1 and more recent cargos in this material), and I'd love it in a jacket, but I can't see a way for it to fit.

If I go with my standard XXL size, I won't get it fastened, where if I go up a size, the arms are far too long and the shoulder is too wide.

Then it would not work for other body types. A fortuitous result of our garments being of varying size, is that we can make more people happy, than if everything fit a single body type.

We had a intern who lost sleep (and probably pulled his hair out too) because our jeans were not exactly the same measurements in a given tag size. My exhortation that we should celebrate the fact that because the measurements differ we can make more people happy, fell on deaf ears....

@Giles Not IHUK material, clearly.

Correct

He was a big F1 fan and my observation that even in the incredibly high-tech world of Formula 1, the wheels on the cars still need post production balancing, did not help either. In fact, I think I burst another bubble...

@Giles, I think I'll be reaching out to the crew Monday morning with a sizing request and see if y'all have something close to my needs. There is a few in stock in my target size, hopefully something works.

Brilliant - best of luck.....

To above mentioned intern, this was an extra piece of hassle he did not understand and was not very gracious about....

@Giles ha!
