Fit Check Thread for Jackets

It’s a bit short, you’ll need the next size up at least.

Ah it’s vintage, I’m just going to return it. I decided one MA-1 is enough—I don’t need an L-2B in addition to it.

It looks pretty good to me. It may be a touch big in the shoulders, but I wouldn’t size it down because it seems the right length in the torso and sleeves.

Thank you for the reply. I plan to be able to wear something to layer on cold days. I tried L and struggle to wear it, shoulders were too narrow for me

Then I would stick with this size, but also I would wait for the opinion of some of the more experienced forum members.

Although it looks a bit roomy, it looks cool. In this respect, I would probably stick with it.

Thank you for your input. I think the roomier look is what they are going for, judging the picture on their website.

I say if you like it, buy it.

I like it. My next leather would be a tad roomier to layer for the winter. Plus I imagine the one you have on will drape nicely when breaking in.

At this price, you can try a jacket from another brand and compare it. This jacket may be too big at the waist

How do you like your Iron Heart jacket, I’ve been looking at buying one.

Stop looking and buy one. I own two and this time of year they are the jacket I reach for most often when I leave the house.

Yes! I’ve decided on the black oiled whipcord but they are out of stock, hopefully they’ll be restocked soon. I’m so excited for alpaca lining.

Most of IH outerwear is long-sleeved

That’s an understatement

Same here. I’m hugely biased, but I honestly think their take on the N1 is the best out there, if you want a slightly more modern fit.

It’s my favourite piece of IH clothing, and I have a fair bit lol..

 

[Brandrea33]

OP, I think it looks great. For reference, I’m 6’2, 180lbs and I wear an XL N1 and XXL in IH UHFs.

100% in agreement.
And I am not at all qualified to rank the IH compared to other makers as it is the only one I’ve ever owned or even tried on. But it is so well executed that once I got one I didn’t feel any need to see what else was out there. I have never owned such a warm jacket that fit so well and looked sharp at the same time.
I too own many pieces from IH and their N-1 has to be in my top three Favorites.

Well, I’m 6’3” and 195 lbs, size 42. I just ordered an XXL; hopefully, it isn’t too big. My girlfriend said the black jacket looked the coolest, so I got that one.

Always a good idea to listen to the girlfriend, especially when she’s right. What does your chest measure?
