@Appfaff this is an amazing haul. The chinos are such a clean look, especially with that crisp white popover. I can't wait to see those boots in person…

@Broark
Here are more detailed shots of the plaid ranchero in XL, as well as my measurements. The linen mix has some inherent "give/stretch" to the fabric and the back gussets give a very roomy upper back/chest feel even if the P2P measures don't make it seem like so. This is after a cold rise, spin, hang dry, and iron with starch.Measurements before/After:
Shoulders:19.5 / 19.5
P2P: 23 / 23.185
Length (Taken from the seem right next to collar): 30.5 / 31
Didn't measure the sleeves, but my guess is they are about 26.5 now, they definitely didnt shrink with a rinse.I;m sure it will tighten up a bit with a real wash and more agitation, but I don't think it will be much. I've learned a warm/hot iron usually brings the fabrics right back where they were
One of the casualties of the indigo backed pocket flaps on the wheat cowboy jacket… Back in the washer it goes but this time not inside out haha

Thanks bro! I guess you will have to come visit sooner rather than later haha - or I'll just bring them home this summer with me

Shirt looks great @Appfaff , thanks for the photos and measurements.
It definitely fits you well, I think I could make the measurements work given the issue I usually have is in the waist area and not the chest. And this shirt doesn't look like it tapers much from the chest through the body. Need to cut down my beer intake and get that waist line slimmer.
I was also interested to see the collar, I thought it might be a little costume-y but that doesn't look to be the case.
Now I just have to stop buying IH shirts long enough to get this one… -
There is an XL listed on grailed right now. I was unsure about sizing so I didn't jump on it, but it might be worth it if you think it will work for you!

I hear ya - only like buying second hand when I KNOW it will workout.. IH is a bit more standard when it comes to sizing, so that usually works out for me.

I highly recommend it @Broark! It is my first peacoat as well, and I'll tell you that it's more versatile of a style than I initially thought it to be. It can look "dressier", or more casual cool. I'm sure this one will treat me nice for many seasons to come

very nice piece @UnTucked - A lot of people didn't like the camo flashing on the reverse of the throat latch, but i that it was really cool. I might sneak one some day, but I stocked up on very wearable, excellent IH jackets this year, so I don't really have a need, except (as you mentioned) this can be worn dressed up. I save my MFSC stuff for the spring/summer as I love my UHF and heavy IH shirts too much to wear anything else when it's cold. Would love to see a fit pick and hear how you sized VS. your IH gear.
Cheers,
Adam

On this one, unlike my other MF pieces, I sized down. As I read the product description by the man himself, he stated he intentionally sized down, so I did also. In a 38, and I grabbed a 36, and did as he did… Dampen it, and wear it until dry. Turned out perfectly after I had the button moved to accommodate my chest diameter. Shoulders and sleeves were fine "as is".

Love the Caban @UnTucked - I'm like @Broark winter here is too short and too warm, seems like I can layer with heavier shirts and lighter coats/jackets - and I have an IH N1 I (sadly) almost never get out of the closet. Otherwise I'd be all over this one as well.
Here are some pics of the Malibu denim pants I just snagged. REALLY enjoying these so far - I'm going to wear them pretty hard for a few weeks, then give a soak to get the shrinkage out, and then I think I want to hem them kind of short as CL recommends. Shown here with a 4" cuff. I am going to use the extra material from the hem to add belt loops. They want to ride down and the snaps on the side keep popping when I get in/out of the car. Also - where to hang my keys?? Also wearing the Appaloosa HBT stripe shirt.

Nice stuff bluegrass! Btw indigo proof can make the belt loops - I already inquired for my speedway piques haha
