@Giles

@Graham Dude, your help on this was so critical! Thank you!!

@Danimal506 thank you my man!

Thanks y'all! Happy to be able to share, and just so thankful to the IH crew for their help and patience with me! Not sure what other company matches their level of customer service to their insanely high level of quality products!

@Mister_Brue haha thanks my man, it was a little wild last night after a long day!

But yea, I seriously lost sleep over the sizing and was so back and forth, but I'm happy with the call. A Medium would not have been terrible, of course, but since I was going for a light jacket, it felt like the right move. Seeing the staff sizings helped guide me,too.. I figured if a 6'0 human could rock a medium, I'd be OK with a Small. And the chest measurements on the Small are close to my 526J-slb Large, which fits great. All that being said, you never know until it arrives!

Well the day has come, and so damn quickly I might add; on Monday evening, I confirmed my snap upgrades and a last-minute size change (thanks again for the patience Graham and Bailey!), and it arrived In San Francisco today! Got home late from work and not the best lighting, but here are some initial pics. Cant wait to get this piece in the sunlight, because the deep indigo is so gorgeous! I’m stoked on my size adjustment from original order of Medium down to a Small after careful consideration of how I wanted to wear this, which was as a lighter spring coat, that I could layer if needed but wanted a slimmer, more fitted look. I’m 5’8, 156, 39.5” chest, and this small fits perfect. I layered easy with a thick samurai tee, and a decently thick hoodie. The copper snap upgrade was something I was eager to see, and it’s even better than I hoped. Don’t sleep on this piece yall!! Thanks again to IH for a beautiful new jacket!

Question about measurement; are sleeve measurements including the cuff? Or to the end of the serge portion? I'll know in a few days when it arrives, but figure some others may be curious. Thanks in advance!

@Mister_Brue Hey there, I upgraded to the copper snaps, and should arrive Thursday per UPS ETA. I'll send pics (if you're able to wait until then:)

@meatmarketdenim1 thanks! Good eye, yeah I live here. You as well?

It was a great morning for these layers, then it got too warm, which I didn’t mind!

@Graham gotcha! Thanks! Also curious about this fit on you, Graham. I have very similar measurements, only 3” shorter and 15lbs lighter. I have a short torso so I’m a little drawn to the size small for the length, but should maybe go medium if you wear a large. How tight/loose did the Large fit you?

Product seems to have disappeared from the site FYI

Very excited to see what this looks like on a person. Will there be photos of any IH staff wearing one before they go live?

Looking for the 409 in anywhere from Medium to XL, depending on measurements. I can make anything from 21’ to 23’ work in the pit-to-pit, and 17.5”-19 in the shoulder. Cheers y’all and happy new year!

Does anyone know if this is the IHSH-76? Listed on eBay as the 33 but doesn’t seem like it at all..

@Tago-Mago Cool thanks! Yeah I've been on here long enough (which is not long at all) to know that patience is a virtue! But was wondering about exactly that, roughly the time that announcements are made and catalogs drop. Thanks y'all!

@goosehd Thanks for the redirection!

Not sure if this is the right spot for this post, but wondering when the Spring/Summer 2025 catalog will release, or when new products typically begin to get announced?

@Mister_Brue Thanks so much, we'll see when it arrives! Appreciate ya!

@sabergirl OK good to know, anuy amount of tightening would help, and at the end of the day this will be a great overshirt/light coat. It's smaller than a different CPO I use as a jacket, so I'm definitely safe there. As long as the measurements provided to me were accurate... I'll find out when it arrives in a little over a week. I'll send a pic to see what ya'll think. Thanks for the help!
