Big Fan here...or used to be. The company in it's present state is a shell of what it used to be. After the company was sold to Amer Sports, outsourcing and greed has led to poor quality and higher prices. That being said, I do own quite a few pieces-Alpha SV, Beta LT, Firebee, Thorsen, Thorium Parka, Cerium, a few Atoms and coverts, Delta LTs. The Thorium Parka and Thorsen are my winter go to's. Atoms for the Fall. For extreme cold, I'll use the Firebee or Alpha SV/Cerium combo.

@Brunell I wear an 8.5D in iron rangers 9D in the Red Wing 875 and 8.5D in Jobmasters. I own a few Jobmasters and find the ones with a softsole/Christy sole fit a touch wider vs lug soles or VBar soles.

@sweetlou Look up Taion. They're dirt cheap. Made of down. Fitted. Fits perfectly under a type 2.

Are you talking about the KB 140?

Check out all the sizing videos from TJ at The Shop Vancouver. He has so many videos about sizing on IG, Youtube and on his website.

I'm 5'8, 165-170lbs. I wear a size M in most IH shirts/flannels. I have the Y'2 KB 140 in a size 38. I mostly wear just a tshirt or thin sweater underneath. It is a slim fitting jacket and the leather is stiff at first, but softens over time. It's also a shorter jacket that just hits me below the belt line.

I have a Double Helix Western Pioneer in a size 40. I would say that a size 40 is my true size. I can fit a hoodie underneath and find it easier to move around in. Mind you, the leather is super stiff on both jackets and takes time to break in.

@Jcaz6996 @teddyjay

thanks for the heads up @AdamJ.  Ended up getting an M65 instead.

@kkibbey23:

Well I’ve been so impressed with my pair I went ahead and ordered a black pair of engineers too

For the money I think they are hard to beat. It’s insane quality

@kkibbey23 gorgeous boots.  How’s the sizing?

@Clint_D:

Unfortunately, it would probably more hassle to return it than anything (came from Japan) so it’s probably going to find its way to the trash. Lesson learned though!

I've been scammed twice on ebay.  Both times, I was able to get my money back without returning the item…as long as paypal was used.  When you submit a claim, the seller has to plead their case to paypal.  Both times the seller never responded and I got my money back within a week or two.

@Alex:

@teddyjay word from Japan is these are due soon, so we should get them in the next two weeks

Thanks @Alex
