I have the Ironalls jacket, PowerWear striped t-shirt and henley in size 44 - all comfortable fits.  I've got an Ironalls chambray (#2123001) coming in 17.  Based on your sizing above Duke, 17 should work but 17.5 may have been better.  Anyhow it's too late now - the boat with the parcel set sail a month ago now, so will get here... eventually!

I prefer my PowerWear to fit a bit looser to hide the flabby bits … that’s why I’m a 40 in jackets and 42 in tees. That Ironall shirt has a more relaxed fit and I’d think you might be ok with the 17

the 1943 on right are my work jeans. 
should I start the s601xx or the first run 1947 next? 

@shredwin_206 so you've faded the pair on the left already in 10 days?  Wouldn't put it past you. :P

Nice… is it worn in? Post some pics if you get chance.

I may be running into being told to read the thread but I’ll risk it and ask anyway - is there a pictorial comparison of the various jeans and jackets denim anywhere?

Considering that I had bought it nine years ago, not so much.
It's also a bit on the tight side now. I'll see, if I can get a picture in the next days.

Not really. There's Duke's overview of the different cuts of the jeans and there is a blog post in Chinese comparing two type 1s and a type 2.

Does anyone have the Jungle fatigues?

just wondering what the inseam is like after a couple of washes? Trying to determine if they’ll end up too short? 

Just check with Seiichiro. I don’t think they’ll shrink in the wash but the inseam is only about 28 inches to begin - that’s even on the short side for my stumpy legs (I could wear them, but only with boots and the hem cinched)

Looks overdyed expect for the selvedge-ID *-* 

It’s not over dyed but I am mightily impressed at how denim-like the fabric (and dyeing) is. Previous black denim I’ve owned always seemed a bit flat; hard to describe but I never thought much of it, or appreciated it.

Thanks Duke. 
im probably going to Cinch them in and wear them like a uncouth yob with trainers anyway so the shorter inseam might work. 
will make enquiries.
