That's a spot-on fit right there!  I wish that my Canadian tuxedo looked that good!

Just recently got the 526j from a member here in medium and while loving it, the only thing is it might be an inch short [emoji31] anyone have any ‘vertical’ stretching on these ?

Stretching of fabric happens when it is put under enough tension. Gravity doesn’t cut it when it comes to 21oz denim so you’d have to create tension yourself (hang weights from the hem/play tug-o-war with it/invest in a medieval torture instrument). All of these options are silly and an inch would be a lot to ask for anyway so I’m afraid you’re screwed.

But you seem unsure, so why not put up a pic and get feedback?

Good man @f12

My honest opinion, I would say it is borderline too small. Your instincts are correct as it is a little short in the body, but you could definitely rock it like that if you feel for it. Type III’s are intended to be short.

There is a thread here called RAWscore (do a search) which is for this very purpose if you post there you should get more feedback.

You have some nice kit there. I like your boots.

Hey F12, sorry that you're not thrilled with the fit!  I'm still trying to sell the 9526j in that size. If I find a buyer, assuming you do want to sell the 526j, I'll point them in your direction.

It's kind of sad for me to see this jacket in the Extinct section now as it was my very first IH jacket three and a half years ago and for me it was one of the Iron Heart pieces. I had to sell it this year, though, because it became simply too gigantic on me. I hope the 526PJ will bring me as much joy as its predecessor did when I get the chance to snag one in the future.
