Ship John

Love the Ramblin' Jacket. Wish it were long enough to fit my tall ass. Wore my new sized up Wills for the first time tonight though. Feels good, man.

Loving all Ship John products… picked up a Towes in waxed black canvas that is awesome... the quality really is something else!
I am waiting on a custom pair of SJ Wesco Canyon boots... only 3 months to go!!
I keep trying to latch onto the Wills reorders but they all disappear within minutes of going live...
@FairlyVague - the new purchase looks mighty fine!
And finally - a special mention to @Brock - looking awesome as always and thanks for bringing the brand to my attention in the IH forum
P+L to all…

Let’s see your Townes!

You wear it better than I do. It’s nice to see it on others. Feels like I’ve only really seen THE Ship John and myself in it so far.

@palmer The Ramblin jackets appear to have sewn up at least 2" longer than the fit chart, mine should've been 27" in XXL, came in just about 29" I know of 2 other guys whose jacket came in long.. I guess my point is if you can get one after they're released.. it'll be long enough for you.
Dry, after 1hr warm soak

Here's my Townes… its in XL and layers over my IH CPO nicely.
I forgot I bought a large in the tan also... post that one tomorrow!

^ NICE

Great fits everyone! @Boyo I’m assuming you got an XXL. Did the sleeves end up longer too?

@SEAK:
@Boyo Great fit, I got a L and it's slightly too long in the sleeves and a bit baggy. How much shrinkage if any would you say you got from your warm soak? I'm debating exchanging/selling mine, not sure I will get enough shrink from a soak.
I dont think it shrank all that much… here are the current measurements, I didn't measure before the soak tho, so I can only go by the size charts..
Post soak:
Size 2XL
Chest 25
Shoulder 20
Sleeve 27
Back 28.5Pre-Soak Pics:

@SEAK:
Sorry for the crappy quick fit pics, I'm so on the fence about this one. I think its just a bit too roomy and long. So disappointed, the jacket is a beauty!
Hey, I don't have this particular jacket but I did get the Kuroki denim jacket last year. When I got it, the sleeves were LONG. I had to cuff them back just to have them not go past my wrist, and that was something like a 2" cuff. So I did, and I wore it, and I washed it and dried it, and then it got to just about the perfect size.
I'd have to see it in person to know if it's really too big but I have a feeling that you probably sized correctly and you just need to wash/dry it to get it to shrink a tiny bit to be just right. And try throwing a flannel underneath it and see how that feels/fits.
Try cuffing the sleeves. Don't unbutton them, just fold the sleeve back. See how that looks/fits.

@Paul9221 At the bottom of all your posts it says “Blanket line all the things” When I got my jacket I messaged Ship John saying… Thanks,I love it and if you flannel/blanket lined one of these people would loose their minds.
Ha! My willpower is pretty low when it comes to some of these releases. When I see that it's blanket lined, I just stop fighting it. Blanket-lined SJ anything would wreck my wallet.
Speaking of products I wish SJ would release…There's this brown shirt that Mike? was teasing on his IG before the pandemic really got going. It looked so good! I don't know what happened to it:
