IHM-10 - N1 Deck Jacket - 2015 Edition

Looks great @cole -
I think now that the Olive is your "outdoor jacket" maybe giving it a wax with some otter wax would make it look the part? I really like how Christophe's looks (although his is his own version) https://www.instagram.com/p/BACtIJ5FVVD/?taken-by=christopheloiron
If anything, the wax adds additional dimensions to the jacket and would make the chlorine marking stand out less and appear to be more naturally a part of the evo.
That sounds a brilliant idea

How did you sneak that purchase past the wife? @Cole
You must teach me your Jedi ways….
I didn't. She even encouraged me to buy the navy blue one.
The fact that I had a good chance to get the money for the replacement jacket refunded from the shop which was responsible for the discoloration of my IHM-09 may have helped a bit.
But I must mention, that my wife offered to pay half the price if I don't get a refund, which was very nice from her and, fortunately, not necessary. -
Aww a very sweet and understanding Mrs Cole.. No Ninja or Jedi moves required!

She's a keeper!! @Cole

@Cole perfect fit!
I actually just ordered the last XL in Navy…I can't wait to get this bad boy in. Wish I would have gotten it 2 months ago and used it more of this winter.

So how windproof is this beauty? I have till Monday until I receive mine, so I don't mind keeping me occupied with details of the jacket
well…and working ha.And with a warmth "level"....I have a Schott Peacoat with the 32oz melton wool(which I might put up for sale depending on how "dressy" I can go with this), does anyone else have a heavy wool jacket that they could compare this to? The Schott does a great job in the warmth and wind stoppage, but not an everyday jacket for me.

It is all relative on the size you get and if you have a long, average or short torso area…
I quickly gauged the length difference between my 126 and the N1, only .75" difference or so, so it should be a good length for me.
-
Yeah, my N-1 is plenty long on me - good length and if I wanted a more heritage look if go down 1 size.

Got my N1 in today. Beautiful jacket! Everything fits perfect, except the back which does pull a bit when extended reach. I actually figured the arms would seem longer with a 28" length, they seem like a 27".
I will have to try it on again tomorrow to see if I want to keep it for life. I LOVE the Alpaca lining(too bad the arms aren't lined the same….that would make it absolutely perfect then). Also in love with the functionality of the collar.

Brilliant ^^
