Volcano, Snowy and Davito, thanks a lot!
The fabric is so stubborn, a REAL Iron Heart product Glad I took the L!
I can´t believe it, nearly 1 year ago I just wanted a heavy pair of jeans with selvage. I already knew my first 634S was something special, but I never thought I´ll be so addicted to IH. The last couple of months, as a forummember, opened my eyes. This is the ultimate brand.

[Snowy]

JCM, Feel EXACTLY the same way! From the first day of wearing the 634S' I knew they were something special and within a week had signed up here and within 6 months had visited IH-HQ to pay homage

[Mumbles]

this is a sweet looking jacket.  nice fits fellas.  epic beard derivative.

Did anyone wax his jacket?

[Snowy]

@JCM, No, have not waxed. Was tempted to and did a fair bit of reading about it. Determined that I'm too active in this jacket to wax it, whereby the sweat would be trapped inside the jacket.

An out-take from our recent JP trip, thanks to Mrs Snowy;

Transmission went out on car while road tripping for the holidays I need to sell for some extra cash or ship back to G.  Shipping will cost me 50 bucks so I will sell for 570.00 in the states size XL green brand new with tags.  I will have on forum tomorrow!

@dawei94:

what size?

XL…(read carefully again!)

I really thought this jacket would be waterproof and that it would "end" all other jackets, but after a 10 min bike ride I was soaked to my skin. Still obviously an awesome jacket, but everywhere you read it says Ventile is waterproof.

[Giles]

Damn, sorry about that.  Bloody Ventile…...I'll make sure we reflect that in future descriptions.....

[MikeC]

Do they really say ventile is waterproof?  It should say water resistant.

They meaning the general consensus.

[Giles]

This is what I say on the website:

Japanese "Ventile” lining - Ventile is a 100% tightly woven cotton, developed during WWII as a waterproof survival suit material

Not inaccurate, but possibly misleading…

[Peter]

Even their own website/wiki both say it's water- and or weatherproof, so yeah But since we're on the subject (for possible future purchases) - ventile is not waterproof, but windproof (very fucking windproof) and water resistant, yes?

[TinMan]

Blatant thread heist!!!!

I marked down my XL green NWT to 558.00 that is 10% off regular price!!
