IHM-37-BLK - Oiled Whipcord N1 Deck Jacket - Black
-
the small got here, and it fits, but is a bit tight around the pits and at the shoulders when holding my arms out and moving them around. is there any hope of this loosening up a bit up top after some wear?
the sleeves fall exactly where i want them, its basically overall a similar silhouette to a type III at this size. i really wish i was able to try a medium on, it was so difficult to find a stockist who would actually allow me to return it for a refund if it doesnt work, and none still have medium that im able to find. i suppose i am either stuck with small or SOL at this point.
-
@darbycrash I bought my Medium a week or so ago at Self Edge...they still appear to have size mediums in stock...it sounds like you would definitely prefer having a little more room.
-
@SaddleSC thanks, totally forgot about them having some. when i was looking for one the other day, their website had been down for awhile and i forgot to ever check back.

@darbycrash It was James Dant

I'm really interested in how many of these jackets were made - if that could be shared.
-
got a schmedium on the way! thinking its gonna be perfect
-
Missed out on one of these on eBay this morning by literally minutes as I was umming and arring over it.. a sign to hold out for an olive or khaki as I originally wanted maybe.. or just bad luck!
-
My medium just arrived via UPS, while I'm at work, torture!
While I'm in Manchester, UK and things have been a bit mild, it was absolutely freezing on Saturday and was thinking I'd really appreciate having it to wear
-
Got it, tried it on and it hasn't disappointed. Glad I went for a medium, in the end. I'm 5ft 9", slim/athletic build - was a bit worried I'd undersized as my shoulders are quite broad so I was concerned it'd feel restricted across the pits. Seems fine though - I wanted it to sit quite short, the same fit as the Rivet and Hide model on their website.
Really happy, despite the cost of import

@Turbulence Would love to see some fit pics, if/when you get a chance. Sounds like you found a keeper!
-
@Turbulence did you buy from Self Edge? Was looking last night and they still have plenty of sizes in the black oiled whipcord. Manchester based myself, cold today!

Ditto that … fit pics should be a requirement.

@Turbulence agree re Manchester on Saturday. I was at the football and wore my olive oiled N1 for the first time this season. Perfect.
Enjoy the winter! -
@IrishHeart Giving away your allegiances - I'm on the blue side
-
@Turbulence - and I’m on the orange (aka the losing) side!
Just happy to be in the conversation…
-
@Turbulence yes, I’m a red, but let’s not get into a conversation about football at the minute. I just wish I’d discovered Iron Heart 10 years ago when United were any good!
-
@Nocturama I’ve joined you on the losing side this last few years!
-
I saw someone else ask about this and no one responded so I'll try. Just seeing if someone can ease my mind about this.
My jacket is brand new, never been worn. It looks as though the nap is already worn down and it has creases in it. There are white spots that show up all over the collar. Its very noticeable and (to me) makes it look really cheap. Just wondering if there are reasons for this or what? I know all hides aren't perfect but this doesn't look like a hide issue.
-
Have to admit I’d be a bit disappointed by that given what it has cost you. Hoping when I get my order in for the khaki that it’ll be perfect.
