IHV-22 - Alpaca Lined Whipcord N1 Vest - Olive, Navy, Grey & Khaki

[Engineer]

I got my (new to me) IHV-22 (black) yesterday via eBay.  I must say this is the nicest piece of outerwear I've owned.  The wife likes it so much, she suggested that I buy the khaki version, too.    Pictures to come…

@Cutlasshound I told you, that look she gave you when you tried on the One Star was actually a look of pure unadulterated love, not the "you just fucking dare….", that you thought it was.....

Don't you mean the "How the fuck did I let you impregnate me twice?!!!!!!" Glazed look of death????????

Couple of quick fit pics over a 3Sixteen hbt fatigue shirt.

This is an incredibly practical and versatile piece in my opinion. The alpaca lining is incredibly warm (just now I was watching the rugby and had this on over a t and an UHF and was toasty warm). I actually wear this more than my deck jacket at the moment!

The whipcord is an excellent fabric and works very well for use in a vest imo. Also, the alpaca collar is very soft and isn't scratchy at all (unlike the wool collars of a few Buzz Rickson pieces that I was eyeing up previously).

Whaaaaat?  You don't have one?!??!?!  :o

Hehe… Nope. Almost every other IH vest, and an N-1 jacket, but no N-1 vest. Tbh, I'm going to prioritise a C-3. Otherwise this would be mine...

[Bluegrass]

Whoa, the C3 is indeed a worthy choice….....

@neph93  The reasonable thing to do is buy both!    I will say that my N1 vest is probably my favorite piece of IH gear at the moment - it's that good.

I'm sure it is, and I'd love to own one. But it would be gratuitous, even by my standards [emoji38]
