IHM-01 - Deck Jacket

[J-IV]

^^^^Very true, Finn. This jacket is already beastly. Though earlier in the thread, people were talking about waterproofing it and methods of doing so. So if they do decide to take the leap…

It could potentially be THE outerwear of the season.. ???

[Finn666]

i think hitting it with waterproof spray should do the trick as well (maybe not that well as waxing it, but you won't fuck up the original look of it at all)…

@Finn666:

G. if you're still in the office. are you able to put up a fitpic of an XL and wearing a hwflannel or a sweater under it?
would be dope…thanks, R.

I just test ran my waterproofing spray on my Ebbets jacket…...half the can gone already  ???

[Finn666]

@Giles:

…

thanks a lot G.

so how you feeling with the sweater and the jacket? still enough room (=L would be enough)? or is the fit perfect?

[Giles]

The sweat in L with the XL deck is perfect…...

Waterproofing

I used this on my Ebbets, which is a light cotton/poly mix shell.

Used half a can, and my Ebbets now appears to be completely waterproof, and the can of spray was only £8.49 from ebay.

How long does it stay waterproof?

[GimpKid]

I can't really wear jackets, but if I did, it'd be this one.

Can I put in a vote for next year's version to be khaki with black fur?  That would seal the deal for me.

@J-IV:

It's usually used on camping equipment, and from the websites and forums which I looked through, it generally seems to last about a year, which isn't too bad for the price and how easy it was to do.

OK this is what I know I have "surplus to requirements" at the moment.

Drop me a PM if you think you may want one.

S, L, XL and XXL

[Finn666]

Mega - think that spray will to the trick in any case!

wondering who will get theirs first (except G.) and put up some fitflicks…

[Giles]

Mega, no doubt about it…...

[Megatron1505]

[Finn666]

Ample reason to take the rest of the day off imo…..

[Megatron1505]

G, I'm certainly considering " running some errands"  this afternoon.

Rafa, Mini appears to have hidden our new camera from me, I will attempt to locate and use it later.

[Finn666]
