IHM-27-OLV - Sateen M-65 Field Jacket - Olive
-
Here’s a few fit pictures of my m65 ticks all the boxes

That's a great fit. The Olive looks much sharper than the previous iterations. I have mine which is almost 2 years old and I simple love this jacket and it is the only one that I would use.

The sateen is amazing colour so good construction to good

Does the collar ever relax once it gets worn in?
Bought a large and extra large. It's too long in the body on the extra large. The large is a tad bit restrictive in the shoulder arm area. Think this one just may not be for me sadly. Will sleep on it but I know I will probably be returning both unfortunately.

Not really. It isn’t intended to either. You could wet it and iron it to force the fibres to bend that way, but its purpose is to hold the hood and act as insulation for the neck. That is why it stands up.

Are the p2p-measurements for this jacket taken exactly as with shirts and denim jackets? From the outside including all fabric pit to pit?
I'm a size XL on all Iron Heart shirts I own, but guess I should size down on this jacket to L? I'm thinking the measurement across the jacket p2p due to the thickness of the jacket would reduce the actual fitting size?
Am I making any sense?

A lot of people size down in this jacket to get a slightly more tailored fit, so that is very likely to be what you are seeing in the numbers.

Thank you for confirming this.

I took an L in the black one (take XL in UHFs) and it fits perfectly, with ample room for layering underneath.
Best purchase I've made for a while

That's exactly what I wanted to hear. Thanks. I need to be able to layer and feel comfortable with jackets and shirts. Only downsize is perhaps longer sleeves than I'd prefer, but I can live with that.

To be fair the originals had long sleeves too, intended as they were as functional all weather field jackets. Given Haraki-san’s penchant for long sleeves anyway, it was unlikely he would change that.
I actually have relatively short arms and find the longer sleeves perfect with gloves in cold and windy weather. I think you’ll find them acceptable.
