I got my RJ-2 in the other day. This thing is a beast! When I get time to take pics I will upload them.

Here we are as promised this jacket is a beast! Thanks again for the glowing review on the denim version from @Mizmazzle . His review really helped me decide to grab one when I could.

@pmadison95 - good one bud. Haven’t got round to posting pics but I got mine the other week. A beast and great in the inclement weather in the UK at the moment. Love it.

[pmadison95]

@Crispy-Heron Thanks! I am glad to here you got your jacket as well

[Mizmazzle]

@pmadison95 tell me those pockets are the best thing you’ve ever stuck your hands into!!

[pmadison95]

@Mizmazzle yes the shearling in the pockets was a next level touch. I am blown away with the RJ-2.

[stenaloom]

I got the black one.

Will I die in the RJ2 in Georgia? Love seeing everybody’s, they all look awesome. So tempting just don’t know if it’s practical down here.

[Mizmazzle]

@ZackB I’d imagine you wouldn’t wear it very much.

[ZackB]

@Mizmazzle it’s a beautiful jacket, I’ll just admire everybody’s on here haha.

[Mizmazzle]

@ZackB I mean, you could wear it indoors with the AC cranked down to 40°

[ZackB]

@Mizmazzle haha say no more.

Took my RJ-2 on a hike today.

@Mizmazzle love the cut on this, I assumed the denim is heavy and crispy? I've seen similar ones online but seem to be described as a 'denim-like' fabric.

[Mizmazzle]

@T4920 hey buddy. Merry Christmas.
Yeah this is a 20oz denim. Fairly crispy when it was new. It’s softened up a lot since then. I’ve had it a few years now. My favorite jacket of all time!

Gorgeous coat! I have a Freenote Cloth Heavy Mariner in olive that I love. The Mariner has wool lined sleeved sleeves and I wondered how you liked the quilted lining on your coat.

[pmadison95]

@Hefner Thanks! I like the quilt lined sleeves they make it easier to get the jacket on when already wearing a long sleeved shirt. The quilting has some insulation but they don't feel quite as warm as the body does. How do u like the mariner? I was considering one and the ih n1 but ended up going with the RJ-2.

[Hefner]

@pmadison95, I love the mariner and highly recommend it. I like the alpaca in the sleeves. The pockets do not have a wool lining, which probably would have been nice for warmth, but might have collected dirt, lint, etc. It is a great jacket for the cold.

I think it would be hard to justify getting both the mariner and the RJ-2, but I am going to try my best.

I picked up the 14oz slub deck pants in black and they were stuck in Louisiana for 3 weeks after the rare snowstorm. Finally arrived and oh man I’m impressed. The top block fits like the IH 888 cut. And they have a nice straight but not too wide leg cut. The slubby canvas is soft and really hefty it seems heavier than 14oz for sure. My only gripe out of the bag is that the front pocket bags are a bit shallow for my liking, but time will tell if it becomes an issue. Freenote is a great complementary brand for the IH fan.
