Is it possible to hem the sleeve of this jacket easily ? I am planning to call railcar today to see if the ca perform alteration. I am interested in this jacket but sleeve length is killing it for me

The arms will come up a little once you wear it and it starts creasing. You can also just flip up the cuffs.

@Mustafa911  you will lose at least .5” when the creases set in like @superfuzz  says. Shortening the arms is possible but it is quite a big job. I find all IH type III’s long in the arm for me but I too just flip the cuffs over. I prefer it that way to getting them tailored.

Also mine from the first release shrunk up a bit in the sleeves with a warm wash

Snapped some quick morning bathroom fit pics - went with a small, I'm 5' 8" and 137lbs - not tall by any means - I like the sleeve and body length! This is only my second time wearing it. Love this jacket!

This thing is amazing - I'll get some better pictures in daylight soon.

Just got mine in XXXL.  Wearing it when I’m home from work, evenings around the house. Awesome jacket. Will probably soak it in the wash this weekend.

Just out of the wash after a soak. It shrank up nicely. At least .5” going by feel.

Sorry for the multiple posts. First time uploading a picture. The jacket is still a bit damp and wrinkled from the wash but couldn’t wait to post this. I really think it’s a great fit.

@den1mhead, it's actually my son in the pic, but thanks.  I think he wears it well. Together maybe we can break it in faster.  It's still quite stiff.

^watch your wardrobe as I reckon your son will have it for himself

  No kidding!

Heading off to work. Man I’m loving this jacket

Looking for some sizing advice…

I have the IH-526Lod in Large and the fit is just about perfect. Shoulders about 18.5" straight across the front (forgot IH method was different), Chest ~21.6", Waist ~19.3", Opening ~19.2", Sleeve ~25.5"

The sleeves could be a touch longer but that's about it. If I got a Large in this jacket could I shrink it to around the Lod measurements, or would a Medium be better? Afraid the M would be too snug even if it never touched water though. Thanks!
