Fit Check Thread for Jackets

[Brandrea33]

I posted this in the fit thread but maybe this is the better place (but if that is inappropriate hopefully a moderator can delete). I got one comment there that it might be too tight in the chest

The fit looks good to me !

Can’t go wrong with Iron Heart’s Deck Jacket in black.

Edit: spelling

Looks great x4

I like the Chambray shirt, I also have one

I believe it fits well, but I want to be cautious since RM shirts are quite expensive. This is probably the most expensive shirt I will ever own.

The neck fits perfectly; if the collar were any smaller, I wouldn't be able to button the top button. My main concern is the fit of the shoulders. What’s your verdict?

It looks OK to me, it fits similar to mine, I wear mine tucked in and out, as it gets warm here in Spring and I wear it with cotton chinos and canvas deck shoes sometimes, very versatile shirts

Shoulders look good?

Shoulders look good?

Yeah they look to fit where they should, not high or below, I believe they were USN work shirts anyway so I think a little leeway either way, looks OK to me

I’m leaning towards keeping it

I find my Cambray shirt goes with anything

There is a lot of person preference there but I think the shoulders look good. Any wider would be wide. As it is there is no droop but they are wide. No muscles popping but looks comfortable and wearable.

Well I love the RM Chambray shirt, glad I went with them instead of Mr. Freedom. Just determining if I keep this size 17 or exchange it for a size 16.

I would take it smaller. But I'm not that into oversized shirts either.
I've written somewhere before that it's useless if we think something is good or bad, because you alone have to like it. Do you like what you see in the mirror? Wonderful. Keep it. Otherwise not.

I’m torn. I probably wouldn't be able to button the top button if I sized down, and standard and strange don’t currently have size 16 in stock

I don't think I've ever buttoned the top button but that's me

How do the dimensions of the IH N-1 correspond to reality? Because according to the size chart I would need XXL or XXXL and the jacket is already quite long. But when I look at wearing photos, they often don't look too long. So I wouldn't be sad if the body length was less ;-)

I’m 6’4 "and 195 lbs with long arms, and I take a size XXL. In reality, an Iron Heart XXL is an LL Bean medium tall or a Pendleton Medium. If you live in the UK, it is probably equivalent to large; in the US, it is medium tall.

 

[WolfofStateSt]

Is Iron Heart the only brand the has fur lining in their pockets, or do other brands like Real McCoys do that too? I heard Iron Heart is also the only brand that does an interliner.

I just got this jacket, and I love it! I finally found a bomber, and I think the fit is perfect!

I would say that too.
What size jacket is that? It's not often that you can find a jacket that fits your body size off the peg.

It's an XXL from Iron Heart. I know I have gone through many jackets this year, trying to reinvent my wardrobe, but when I saw Iron Heart released a limited edition L2B in navy, I had to try it. I can safely say I found my bomber jacket. I wouldn’t have had to try so many if Iron Heart made a parka.

I like Iron Heart better than Real McCoys now. The quality is impressive, the fit is fantastic, they are always hundreds of dollars cheaper than Real McCoys, and they aren’t precisely replicas—which, in my opinion, is a bonus. No one can accuse you of impersonating a service with this jacket. Plus, it allows for improvements on the original design.
