Great fit on the TCB jacket @volvo240thebest

Came for the thread title, stayed for the discussion! My favourites have changed enormously over the years (I imagine this is true of almost all of us?), but at the moment I really love: The Mister Freedom lot 64 cut (extra medium, almost high rise, generous hem for engineer boots), especially in the Okinawa denim and NOS Organic Cotton. The Mister Freedom chinos also deserve honourable mention. The Real McCoys 004 and Joe McCoys 991XH. Very similar 60s style cuts, great fabric, an extremely comfortable jean. The Samurai 710 if I want something a bit more contemporary, quite a mid-low rise, slim silhouette. Following @Iron Horse's example, some fit pics.

Hey folks, Does anyone know/have contact with TCB? I ordered the size 46 cat boy jacket midday Friday, and asides from receiving the 'thanks for your order' email, I've had no contact, which is weird because they shipped out the size 48 same day. I've used the 'inquiry form' on the site (on Monday), and haven't got a response, and also tried contacting Inoue via IG, but no dice.

Those look fantastic IH, nice one! PSA - I'm selling my TCB Cat Boy size 48, as mentioned, and it's getting offers on Grailed. Considering Grailed take a percentage, plus the people on there tend to not appreciate the clothing as much as our crowd, I'm just letting folks know in case they want to get an offer in before I make a decision (asking for $200USD).

Haha, it’s a very light feeling jacket actually; feels lighter and softer than the 50s. I would say sizing up one from your 50s is solid advice @Broark. See here for measurements and pics - https://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=12890.0

Appreciate the thoughts, cheers!

It does mate. Still, just looking at the minor differences between 46 and 48, I think the 46 might just give that fitted edge. I've posted up the sales thread over on the Ironheart forums and on Grailed, we'll see what happens!

Now I compare 46 and 48, there's a tiny difference in measurements, might just give me a slightly more fitted look. If anyone wants to grab this 48 for a slight discount/trade for a 46, let me know.

Half an inch shrinkage in chest and shoulders; the length has shrunk a bit more than that and now sits just above the belt.

@mpukas yeah the shoulders and waist width are a touch large (sleeves are fine), but definitely something I think I can fix with a hot soak/tumble, which I think I’ll get to today, will post pics after. Still happy with this fit if it stays like it, it’s a comfortable size.
