Ran a pretty huge PR in Chicago a couple of weeks back. I'm the one in the Iron Heart; I had a chance to sneak back to the hotel for a quick shower before some of my friends were projected to finish.

@goosehd Thanks, I ended up going with Franklin & Poe. I was leaning XS after the discussion above, particularly the comment from @the246guy , but I think that trying to make that happen in the States may not be possible. I rolled the dice and asked for the small side of whatever they had in small. Fingers crossed that turns out.

Super bummed to have missed out this year. Was refreshing this morning before work and saw that the product page was offline, so I assumed it was today. Unfortunately, by the time I got out of my first meeting, the two sizes I was considering were both out of stock.

@mumonkey72 I normally run with the Navy Yard Pacers gang, but the core of my marathon training was solo Anacostia River Trail mileage.

@mumonkey72 It definitely felt like a fast course (which was confirmed when they announced a new world record while I was still quite far from the finish). Funnily enough, I think that Chicago was the first time I met the gentleman you mentioned; that photo was a cross section of several different running groups from DC.

Just saw the email announcement that these are going to be restocked next week. Is sizing coming in consistent with previous years? I've been thinking about grabbing one of these jackets for years, but I've always felt uneasy about actually committing to an XS (I wear a small in the N1, the corduroy Type III, and work shirts, so it seems like XS would be the answer here). Would be helpful to understand if there's something different about these.

This may be a silly question, but I just wanted to confirm the difference in sizing between the Iron Heart belts and the OGL belts. It seems wild to me that an extra small would only be able to get down to 31.5" by using the first hole. Is the expectation that anyone wearing anything even remotely on the small side is cutting belts down? I'm a size 30 in the 634, for reference.

Looking at the size chart for these (with a focus on the small size), the measurements look a little larger than the claimed measurements for the IHSH-268-RED and IHSH-299-PUR, the two UHFs I already own.

Is this intended, or due to some measuring quirk? If so, is this part of a trend toward slightly larger sizing in general?
