@LeDuc_RW i have a question maybe you can help me with..
looking at the measurements these seem to run slightly smaller than the grey, I see you have both and does that seem to be the case?
I got the grey recently in Large and although it fits great, it’s snug in the chest/trap area, so I’m wondering if i should go XL in the camel.
Kersey is such a comfy fabric I’m hooked now
What size are people going with? I’m torn between a medium which will probably fit or large so I can layer under it. I’m 5’9” and like 160-165lbs but a 42-43” chest so I usually have to size up for shirts/jackets. For reference a 526-14OD type iii in XL(42) fit me perfect and the Large(40) 526LOD I tried was too tight even with a tshirt. Thanks!

Right on, I kind of figured it was just from the sleeve creases.
Still going back and forth on this model. I tried one on and the fit was so perfect but I’m kind of holding out for the 526LOD.. I’m covered for 14oz indigo and want a black jacket, and want to try a heavyweight 
I’m sure I’d be happy with it but could see myself buying the 526LOD if I get a chance and it’s similar enough to this model that I’m not sure I’d rock both enough to justify it 
decisions, decisions.

Has the body length shortened up also?
I got the indigo Ramblin jacket last October and the fit and pocket layout is so perfect. I live just outside of Portland so I’m able went in and was happy to see they still had size medium and large in stock. Almost got the large but really glad I went medium, especially after wearing a while it fits like a glove. Obviously insanely good quality all over as well.
It made me discover and settle on iron heart for my next denim purchase honestly. I want a slightly shorter, slimmer denim jacket in black. I tried on the 14oz OD at self edge and the fit was perfect, but I decided to hold out for a heavier jacket.
Still might go for the 14OD also just because it felt great, but in no rush. For now the Ramblin is getting all the love.
It’s already traveled to Italy and now Costa Rica with me but definitely can’t say enough good things about Ship John.
@Heavy_blue Im starting to realize that haha. So many nice pieces by iron heart
@Luijim78 I see what you mean, great pictures! I guess just the process between these two makes them unique in their own ways, which is really cool. I can see wanting both haha.
Right on, thank you all! Ill have faith in the measurements. Really appreciate this forum and looking forward to get something when I get a chance!
There was also a riffblaster jacket locally but was a 38 so two sizes too small 🥲 that might be my favorite looking jacket, so clean and the shorter length is nice, I don’t know if I could really do no extra pockets though, all my pockets always have something haha
Oh also, how does the19L feel compare to the 21oz? I’ve heard so many good things about the 21 and how it gets really soft.
Or does the 19L get that heavy soft feel really?
Does the 19L run big? The measurements makes it seem like it so I’m not sure if I should go Large vs XL. Even after shrinkage it seems like the measurements of these are pretty big
I tried on an IH-526J-142OD in XL at self edge and the fit was as perfect as could be, but I decided to hold out for this, preferably in the black OD, or a 21oz classic.
I don’t own any iron heart yet 🥲 I got a Ship John ramblin in Medium last year, perfect fit and overall amazing jacket, but after trying on the iron heart I can see why there’s so much hype around it. Hoping for a black OD to give the ship John and break every now and then, but mainly wanting that extra weight
