That's about "as soon as it gets", considering it is a winter jacket
Thanks, G!

It is finally chilly enough here for a UHF (IHSH 192) and this warm jacket when riding my bike!!! Yay!

it‘s a wonderful jacket

It's been in the high 80's and low 90's F in Nashville this week. Almost had a heat stroke just thinking of wearing mine right now ha. Picked it up last fall, though, and don't think any other single IH piece got more wear the whole season.

I am having a hard time deciding on size and am hoping for some helpful hints. I am usually the same size as Olly when looking for a snug fit, this is also true for the IHJ-75 which I own in a size M. That would point to an L here but based on the measurements, this one probably would work in size M as I am thinking to be using it for layering. What do you think?

I take XL in shirts and L in most IH jackets, including this. Feel like it fits very well and is at that sweet spot where I can layer under or over it.

Thank you! For most shirts I am a size L, a few I have in XL. Being between sizes, I might end up getting two and sending one back. :-\

I understand the issue. I feel like if you want UHF’s and hoodies under you may me better with an L.

Arm and body length may be an issue with an M also, depending on body shape.  I’m relatively short for my weight (180cm/98kg), and have T-Rex arms, so if you are tall/long in the arm then an M may not work.

I'm typically an L in IH shirts, occasionally an XL.  I wear an L in this jacket.  Typically I only wear a t-shirt under it, because it's very rarely cold enough here (South Coast, UK), to need more….

Thank you @Giles and @neph93, that is very helpful.

Crappy pic but I just slung mine on for a trip to the shops. This is over a single layer sweater.

[vu8iNTGo]

Much appreciated! Based on length, L should be the right choice.

It took me a moment to gather what you meant by T Rex arms, but that led me to an article that suggests that 120 years of research were needed to determine the purpose of T. rex's arms

[neph93]

Sorry… gorrilla’s vs. T-rex’s. The terms were established a number of years back during a discussion of UHF arm length [emoji28]

Thanks for the article though. I’ll lower the tone by leaving this here:

Quick query for the IH crew.

Is that jacket as thick as the IHV-44?

Cheers
Peter

[Alex]

Pretty similar, but the 44 is ever so slightly thicker

[benniejackson]

[mention]JoshC [/mention] regarding the sizing changes, was the general trend larger than previous runs? I have a S from a couple years ago that’s a bit tight under the arms. Had been considering replacing with a M.

Are changes slight enough to just size up and be good, or should I break out the measuring tape?
