IHJ-05 (Cordura Nylon Wind Breaker)

[7tacos]

pheeeeeew, missing it!  i'm applying at UT's new digital repository but it's a long shot.  have lot's of friends down there so i'm there often enough to soak up a good fix which helps. 
at any rate, the  condura's in NY so i have a few days till i can check it out.

Well it came this morning, 2 days early, all gloriously wrapped in blue.  How the hell it got to Texas from NY in 24 hours is a mystery to me.

Dead on fit for my size.  No room for layering but actually prefer this fit over what I had in mind.  It's the ultimate windbreaker…if you into that sort of thing.  But the fit and feel is much more of a garage type jacket which I really like. I rarely look like I haven't just left a garage somewhere anyways.  I'd actually like to get an XL for layering but that would be extravagant for what these cost.

If anyone's on the fence with colors my advice is to go with the grey, absolutely.  It's a very dark grey, completely simple and the logo is very subtle.  In many web pics the grey appears lighter than it actually is.  As was noted, very tough material.  I'll post pics shortly.

@ Pete, Lando et al.

Is this jacket quite warm, i.e.: will it see service as a summer night jacket for you guys?

Thanks
H

H, I find it very warm as well as versatile. I can wear it with just a T under it to the ball game at night to stop the wind, or layered with a hoodie and or flannel to combat the SF fog/ rain… Great Jacket IMO!

Thanks lando

I need to move the few of these I have left.  So price reduction from USD420 to USD250.  I don't have all sizes and the web page is not up to date.  So if you want one PM me.  G

[LandoCal126 0]

Woah what?!?! DO you have a Grey XL?!?!

[Giles]

Yep

[Giles]

OK.  So this is what is left.

Grey:
M, XL, 3XL

Black:
S, M, 2XL

[madmonday]

disregard my PM 

[Gilbertt]

If there is still that black M i may have to pick it up friday.

So tempting!  If these are still around at this price by the time my S-B order is processed…DAMN!

Grey XL in pile please. For some reason if I decide to buy 20 things while I am there and this is not one of them, would you be upset? If so, and someone else wants the Grey XL, then by all means let them grab it. I would however love to have the Grey one as well!

[that_was_easy]

I was just checking the sizing on these and anything above a M seems like it'd be massive!  It's seems wrong that I'm considering buying a garment that was made for a Japanese market in a Medium…

[Giles]

TWE.  I am normally an XL in IH.  I can get away with an L or even an M in this jacket.  Haraki designed it large to wear over a hoody.  G
