3sixteen Denim Series, Bracelets, Shirts...

don't get me wrong, if you're comfortable with the fit then you should keep it, but if not then it's an easy flip. I can't offer any advice on soaking the jacket for further shrinkage but i'm sure someone can chime in. I think it's really up to you what use you want out of the jacket. I've never viewed 3sixteen's type3 as the layering type. That is, they're perfect with just a tee or button up underneath but not with a hoody, unless that's what you're going for.

I've debated on picking this jacket up myself. I wear a large in the crosscut flannel and would be an xl in the type3, unfortunately, my funds are being diverted to other denim purchases.

Re-divert! LOL...Nah...thanks for the help. If I'm wearing a single long sleeve or a tee then it's definitely big and it shows.

Probably minimal shrinkage because it's sanforized denim. I'd recommend sizing down since denim jackets look better fitted. You can stretch it a bit anyways.

Yea...ordered a large today so this XL will be going up for sale.

you want the Large. I have the jacket and sized up one size. I can't layer under it, but it is just right with just a single layer.

How are the heavyweight hoodies? Haven't seen a ton of feedback on them on here but they seem to sell quickly. Can anyone comment on the quality? They look exceptional just thought I'd ask around before grabbing one.

I have the black hoodie and I really like it and I am not much of a hoodie person at all. The fit is outstanding and that is what convinced me to buy it. I have only had it for a couple of months so I cannot comment on how it wears over time. I also think the price is reasonable vs comparable pieces in the marketplace.

I have one and the fit is really nice. Being able to unzip the bottom is nice. Haven't washed it yet but it's very comfy otherwise. Not too expensive compared to other brands.

@gambit402 I know you already decided but I definitely think an L would be good. I wear an M in 3sixteen shirts like you and have the Type3 in a large. It definitely stretches some. I wore a longsleeve and the red crosscut flannel underneath it for two days straight and already noticed it fit less snug after.

Hoodie owners, how tall are you, what size did you go for and where does the hoodie end approximately? For some reason I can never find the right length.

Yea. I ordered the large and agree with everyone's input. Good to know that I just have to suck it up for a day or two.

Anyone have any input on how long it takes the hand-warmer pockets to stop crocking onto your hands with the Type 3s? Not a huge deal, but any time I have my hands in the pockets for more than a couple minutes I end up with blue fingers. I'd say I've worn it in the neighborhood of 15 times so far.

The crocking shouldn't be from the pockets as they are black corduroy. It's probably from the denim on the pocket opening or just handling the denim in general. This usually goes away within a few weeks of wear.

Yeah seriously...Can't justify buying a plane ticket from Michigan to LA b/c that'll discount the savings...but still...
