The Iron Heart Japanese Horsehide Type III Jacket in a Modified fit, features an exquisite chrome tanned horsehide from a small tannery in Himeji, Japan. This black teacore horsehide starts out with a sturdy hand and a bit of shine, but will gradually soften over time and patina beautifully, showing more of the variations and grain, especially as the teacore starts peaking through. The Iron Heart Modified Type III Jacket comes in a slightly longer body compared to the original Type III Jacket, and with two external side-entry pockets and two internal pockets.
Note: Runs TTS for a quite slim fitting leather jacket. If you plan to wear over a basic t-shirt and prefer a slim fit, or on the smaller end of your size, take your typical American tops size. However, if you prefer some extra room and may want to add a thicker layer underneath the jacket, or if you are on the medium-to-larger end of your American tops size, size up one (same as your Iron Heart UHF size) Sizing up one will still have a modern silhouette and not too loose and will generally be a better and more comfortable fit for most.
Model: 6'0'' and 175 lbs wearing size L (one up from his typical American brand size, and also the same size as he wears in most Iron Heart button-up shirts) for a comfortable yet still fitted looking leather jacket.
