Hopefully these XHS live longer than these redwings did.

I’m a 43” chest, probably a proper 44 in this jacket but grabbed this 42 second hand.I would love to get a rough out chore shirt next.

RE: IHSH-397-IND - 21oz Sashiko Work Shirt - Indigo
Just picked up the dobby cloth 12oz hoping it would scratch my sashiko(ish) itch. Hoped it would stop me from having to pick up one of these 21oz, but alas, this is still near the top of my want list.
Can’t come soon enough. -
RE: IH-555-XHSBB - 25oz Selvedge Denim Super-Slim Cut Jeans - Black/Black
I’m really jealous of those who have a pair of these. I just got my SBG21oz size 36 and love them to death. Can’t wait to try some 25oz

If I'm 6'1" 230, take an XL in the DR CPO and XXL in UHF Western/Work, should I go XXL or XXL on this anyone figure?
I’m 5’9 200LBS with 43” chest
Same size as ironshopprovisions JoshWear a XXL in western and XL in my dobby work shirt and chose XL for this.
I was almost tempted to size down until people on here said size up to just went with TTS -
RE: IH-555-XHS - 25oz Selvedge Denim Super Slim Jeans - Indigo
Agreed, as I feel like if I lose waist size it will be a big jump to get the same proportions in a 888.
Jump down to an 35” 888XHS
Also don’t want the diaper butt I was getting with the N&F cut.
The measurements do seem to differ between fabrics though, so I’m planning ahead and taking notes on what to jump on in future releases before they sell out.Fun and addictive hobby.

@Watty
I’m not a sizing expert, I keep a list of the sizes of my clothes and how they fit. When I was closer to 215lbs I’d be considering a XXL.
-edit, just noticed you were considering XXXL not XL. Hard to say in that case. I was just thinking XL would be way to small for you.

RE: IH-777S-UHR - 21/23oz Ultra Heavy Raw Selvedge Denim Slim Tapered Cut Jeans
@soobrex1
Obviously the best way is to get some measurements from other jeans you own (that don't have stretch fabric) then look at the chart.
But I am going to purchase the 777 UHR next most likely. I also have the 555 SBG in 36 so went and tried on a size 36 777 in store (14oz) and the overall fit was as expected, tight waist, more snug in the sides top block (hips) and more room in the lower leg. The thigh area was still snug. The rise felt a little lower than expected, but I am sure would get used to.Like you, my 555 have stretched to 38 at the waist, and are a little loose now. I will be going with a 36 in the 777 which should be close to 37", then shrink to 36 and stretch back out close to 37. Thighs on the UHR will probably shrink 0.3-0.5 depending on if using a dryer.
In my case I don't think sizing down to a 35 is a good idea. It seems better to have them a bit on the looser side than always too snug, especially if you already have issues lifting your knee. -
RE: Y’2 Leathers….
Rooney, I know what you mean, when I’m wearing mine and moving my arms around to try to break it in more I feel the same seam digging in near my elbows.
Mine was pre owned but looked pretty new, I wore it watching a few movies, few dog walks and car drives, then sprayed mine down with a spray bottle with distilled water, went for a 40 min drive, layer down flat overnight, wore a few more times, then rubbed mustang paste into it with my fingers.
It’s softer now, but on the downside I think my nice crisp sleeve wrinkles I had have softened maybe too much and flattened out a little. I liked them looking more bunched up before, so not 100% sure I would use the mustang paste so soon next time, probably should have waited longer. -
RE: Y’2 Leathers….
Mine isn’t completely uncomfortable, I just can’t try to drink a beer or coffee, or drive a windy road. Isn’t this normal when wearing a thick leather HH jacket?

RE: IH-555S-UHR - 21/23oz Ultra Heavy Raw Selvedge Denim Super Slim Cut Jeans
I’m going in circles every day trying to decide between these or a 777 coming soon.
As far as I’ve read the top block in the 777 is a little tighter, and with a slightly wider knee the thigh region should have a little more room.
Is that correct?
The measurements between the two are similar but I image they fit/feel much different.(Also difference in rise of course)
