      Is the IHF experiencing any "issues"? It took me three attempts to send a PM earlier (kept getting a could not identify recipient message), and posts which I have already read are still showing as new.

          Inside out and wash how you normally wash clothes. Hang dry.

              Thanks G,
              By 40degrees/100degrees F

              Do you mean that 40degrees Celsius?
              Or 100degrees Fahrenheit is maximum?

                                Please excuse my ignorance but I'm completely new to this, I'm thinking of Waxing my Olive IH deck jacket for the rainy winter days (with otter wax) I was wondering if I'm better off using Barbour Wax instead? Also if I apply the wax and heat it through in the oven is it going to melt right through the other side of the jacket and leave me with a horrible waxy lining to my jacket? Any help would be great here!

                                Best

                                    Hei Jord Do it with the blowdryer as shown in the vid for the deck, baking in the oven could not be good for the inner lining imho. I baked the RS duck because its without lining. Take your time its pretty funny to do

                                    Cheers,

                                      I hear it's best for the fabric to be warm as well as the stuff being applied. So heat a portion of the fabric, keep the wax hot, apply to warm/hot fabric, etc

                                      Think it, be it.

                                          the IH one and not because I'm biased, what I'm… but since I prefer the look of the IH one, the shape of the arms, the details on the IH one, over the Spiewak and the fact; that the Spiewak one looks fugly in the pics, what prob have a lot to do with the over the moon ugly Levi's the dude in the pic is wearing...

                                            well I actually like the collar and the actual fabric of the spiewak a lot more tbh., though the placement and form of the side pockets of the IH one, as well as the inner lining is "better" than on the spiewak…still need to see pics of the inner lining of the spiewak though!

                                            no big help I know -.-
