IHM-11 - Whipcord and Alpaca Deck Coat

[Finn666]

^well tbh @madmonday  , the fit of the large looked exactly like yours I have to say…the only thing I didn't was to keen about was, that a) the jacket isn't that versatile, so not something I could wear for business meetings and for taking out the trash and b) as @Max Power and @DrBabyhorse already pointed out, the fit from waist down was a bit "too skirty" for my liking…so I've sent it back the day after I was able to try it on and went for a Canada Goose Chateau Parka instead. really loving it so far and not regretting my decision I have to admit.

soyou ended up, leaving SE with or without it my friend?

left without, the sleeves were too short despite the chest & shoulders being good.

i don't mind the dress on the lower portion, keep my a$$ & nuts warm & don't have to worry about a draft sneaking up your back 

[Finn666]

true that …maybe one day I'll buy one again, but not now I'm afraid. I really was looking forward to this piece and honestly I have to say, after trying it on and checking it out in person, I'm a little bit disappointed...unfortunately!

My exact feelings

I just thrifted an original one of these today.

Oh, now that deserves a "pics or it didn't happen!"
And I don't want to know what price you got it for, either…

[riffblaster general]

I don't want to derail this one so I'll post it in the thrift store scores thread.

Part of (well, the only part that I felt I could repeat out loud) a review I had from a happy customer….

_Another complaint I noted on the forum was some thought the A line of the jacket made them look like they were wearing a dress. It's actually built that way so you can run from whatever is  trying to kill you and not to bring up issues that a little psychotherapy might have eliminated long ago.

I wore the 11 tonight for the first time outdoors with a long sleeve T shirt and a temperature of -8C. and I'll say this is a warm goddamn jacket! There's a lot of satisfaction for me in a well made article_

Anyone out there who wants to part with a XL sized Whipcord and Alpaca Deck Coat?
Please sell it to me!
(You know you need the NEW Deck Half-Coat really bad!)

I agree. Waiting for the weather to become cold enough to wear here. I miss New England

Does anyone know where I could get a new/medium size coat from or is this too late in terms of older stock?

[Giles]

Not even any left in Japan I am afraid…......
