IHM-09 - 2014 Whipcord "N1" Deck Jacket - Olive & Black

[den1mhead]

Will be waiting in by my front door all day tomorrow in anticipation of my IHM-09 in Black Medium being delivered by the lovely UPS people. Only one more sleep

Wondering about the sleeve length. I have a Mister Freedom n1 and Mullholand Master and the Sleeves run 23/24 inches. THis jackets dimensions all line up to those jackets but the sleeves are 3 inches longer. Is that because the interior sleeve is shorter? Will these sleeves bunch up or run way too long? any help is appreciated

The storm cuff helps hold the sleeve in position.

I put a small cuff in the sleeves of my 04, works out nicely for me.

Received my IHM-09 from IH UK and and I absolutely love it  It's been cold here lately and with the jacket on I'm left feeling toasty and warm. Anyone who is contemplating buying the IHM-09, I would say go for it as it will be an investment and a sound purchase. Here's a pic of my black medium IHM-09 amongst more IH and other Japanese pieces.

Here's the large on a 6'1" 200 lb frame.  I decided to Otter Wax mine.  Used most of a 5 oz bar and need to order a second bar to finish.  Wax needs to set/wear in but I'm pleased.

The fit looks great! How does it feel? Do you have room to layer?

You are a little bigger than me (6' 185-190) and I decided to go for an XL, which should arrive today. I briefly had ownership of a Freewheeler's N-1 in size Large / 42 and it had similar chest / shoulder measurements as the large IH. I had to return it because I couldn't comfortably wear it with anything other than a T-shirt.

Gives it a bunch of character.

Great job.

UPS just dropped off the package. Such a relief; the XL fits me great. There's enough room for layering (important in Chicago!) without looking bulky. I'll get up some pics over the weekend.

Quoise - Glad the XL fits!  I can fit the ultra heavy flannel and long sleeve tee under the large for a comfortable, but snug fit.  XL for you in Chicago is a sound choice.

Thanks everyone for the fit comments.  Re: waxing.  I hate to use the phase 'hand rubbing' with this crowd…but that's all I've done so far with the wax bar.  I've got more wax ordered now.  When I apply that batch I'll use some hair dryer action to work it in a bit.  I'll be sure to post after pics.

Sleeves are on the long side but the cuffs keep it in place so it still looks good. Once the fabric sets it won't be problem at all. The zipper is a beautiful piece of metal.
