Ship John

Hey guys, looks like they just re-listed the tan and black waxed Townes shirts on the site!
You mentioned my wills jacket looking pretty worn in the WAYWT thread… take a look at this one! It is from the original run.

That's not a jacket, that's a life partner! Beautiful!

I have one from that run but the fading pales in comparison. 2016 is when they were released I think.

First post! Hi all, first I wanted to say how valuable this whole forum has been for me. I have learnt a lot about fits and it has helped me select the right Iron Heart items for me.
This Ship John thread has also been a great help and persuaded me to buy my first Ship John piece, the Kuroki Denim Wills Jacket. Absolutely love the jacket and was so happy when it finally got here (Germany) but it appears it's too small for me.
It fits snugly everywhere except the back billows out at the pleats a bit like a parachute, presumably because the chest is too tight. Has anyone else had this issue?
Obviously there's none left to get a different size, so I'll be on selling this soon. It's never been worn apart from the trying on, and is size S. So if anyone is interested before I officially add it for sale send me a PM.
Thanks!

Welcome!
Honestly, the IH forums are one of the most wholesome corners of the Internet. I love this place!
I ordered a size medium of the denim Wills jacket and it fits as perfectly as possible. The sleeves are a little long but cuffing them makes them perfect. I normally go with a large in the IH flannels, if that helps.
I wish you the best at selling the jacket. It's such a handy jacket! I love all of the pockets. I'm wearing mine as I type. It's probably the most I-don't-care-if-it-gets-dirty jacket that I have, so it gets a ton of use. I hope you're able to pick up a size medium.

Is anyone else here getting one of these?!?

Is there an ETA for this? I plan to enjoy it vicariously.

The ETA has come and gone by a few months… so I’m patiently waiting because it will def be worth it!

I’ve looked at your post many times admiring this jacket and wondering whether I NEED it…finally concluded that none of my three other leather jackets like ranch work. But it is already sold out, of course.
Do you know how often SJ puts these out?I look forward to your review and pics in the meantime. I’d like to know how comfortable and useful you find it for ranch/farm work. I suspect it’ll be a long wait so feel free to post frequently with all details you care to share.

This is the first run and I think they have ran into some difficulty making them because of the weight of the leather.. so weather they do another run or not is still up in the air…
Here is a 1 year side by side for your viewing pleasure [emoji7]
As soon as I get mine I will be sure to review it here!

Thanks Paul. Yeah I totally love the jacket, am very gutted about the fit. I actually had an M and switched it to S at the last minute after a load of measurements. Im usually an M with the IH flannels too so I thought I had it nailed. In good news I just picked up a couple of great Iron Heart pieces in the Burg und Schild sale.

Aw man, that sucks! I had that happen to me with the waxed Townes shirt in black. I ordered it in medium then by the time I realized I should've ordered a large, the larges were all gone.
I'm tempted to pick up the SJ gloves. I don't really need (I don't ride) but those look like very nice leather gloves!
What did you pick up at B&S?

Stopped in at Ship John today to clean the roof up. They sprung a leak from some leaf build-up. Hopefully resolved that issue…

Can you pick up a waxed Wills jacket for me while you're there? Thanks!

I have the Hawkins gloves in black and brown. I’ve never had gloves that fit so well.
I’m pretty much wearing Iron Heart and Ship John every single day!

I wrote to them inquiring about the veg tan jacket and Ellen responded confirming that there is no certainty yet about a second run. Kicking myself for taking two months to make up my mind to get one after you posted the picture. Anyhow, I’ve asked SJ to keep me in mind in the rare case that a preordered XL falls through the cracks.

Ah yeah it hurts when it's not the right size, especially when you get the customs bill on top when it arrives. Luckily they were shipping everything for free when I got my denim Wills jacket so I got priority UPS shipping to Germany for free.
The gloves do indeed look great, like all their stuff.
Managed to grab an IHSW-23 and a IHSH-194-OLV at the B&S sale, they only had one of each. Glad I got in early!
