let the fading revolution begin brother!!!!!    you don't mind the length of the jacket?

[heavydoom]

anybody here owns the chore jacket in the hickory flavour?  i may buy one but i am worried that the colour may not match with anything.  by the way, what's the deal with the hickory material?

Nah, I kind of like that it's a bit longer, makes me look taller lol.

[goodrain]

I have the foreman vest in hickory. It goes well with denim, duck, even dressier slacks.

i've been breaking in my TCB 60s for a while now.

 

 

 

 

My 60s denim pants

[theguywhoknewthatguy]

Seeing these pics of jackets is getting me interested in pulling the trigger one. The measurements I'm seeing on denimio look they have a reasonable sleeve length for longer arms. I'm 5'11", 165 lbs; not sure if I should be ordering a 40 or 42 in unwashed. Leaning towards the 42 for extra chest and shoulder room.

 

Can anybody comment on the roominess of the arms? They look quite slim in the photos I'm seeing. Do they restrict movement at all? Can you fully bend your arm inward? Can you stretch both arms forward, such as if you were on a bike?

 

Thanks!

unless you have huge guns, as long as you don't size down you should be fine. They are on the slim side but I don't remember them being restrictive

[holio cornolio]

^^youre a bit taller and the same weight as me. You will have plenty of room in the 40 I would say. The armholes are cut high but they don't restrict movement.

[holio cornolio]

^wait no, I did my conversion wrong, you're 20lb heavier than me!!

[goodrain]

We are the same height and weight. Get a size 40

[nycsurfer530]

I'm 5'10" 160lbs and have a 38 and can fit a sweatshirt underneath. The 40 should be perfect.

[tigerstrom]

I got size 40 and I'm about 168 lbs.

[harls]

So I've been thinking about picking up a pair of the Seamen pants. Should I size down?

[volvo240thebest]

I have no direct experience with the seamen jeans but after having had a glance at measurements I'd say you'd better go tts.

[harls]

Cool, I've been concerned about the possibility of them stretching a lot but I'd rather they were slightly too big than too small. I'll think about it some more.

[volvo240thebest]

if in doubt just ask Inoue.

I wouldn't size down a cut like that which is supposed to be loose but that's my opinion...

Co-Sign

They are meant to be a baggy fit. However the waist looks true to size.

So i'd be worried if you sized down about the waist fitting you.

[jigsaw]

havent wear anything this light in a while and it feels good
