    I wore my N-1 like two times last winter. Just kept grabbing my primaloft IHJ-08. Granted, I live in NC. But the stuff is super warm!

      At some point, i will buy one of these…  I can imagine as G said, this would be, averaging the cost per wear, one of the most useful purchases from IH.

        Was the restock 1 of each size for M and L? Will there be anymore on the way? Or did other retailers get a restock?

          We did not take many because our technical stuff just does not sell very well. There may be a few more arriving in about 10 days if Haraki allows us to steal some of his…....

            @Giles:

            …But I could pop this in the wash now and it would come out looking brand new - it's amazing...

            I read you machine wash your IHJ-38 at 30 or 40C.
            Could you tell what spin cycle, if any?

              Whatever the machine spins at on those temp cycles.  Probably pretty fast.

                Thanks G.
                I was thinking the wool/hand wash program (30C) since the label says hand wash.
                The program has default 800rpm spin cycle, so should be okay.

                Btw, as stated many times before by others, it is an amazing jacket!

                  Back from a 10 day, 3000 km motorcycle trip in the mountains. Wore my 79 layered under a mesh jacket whenever temps dropped under 16 deg C. What a great looking, versatile and warm item it is!

                  Wish my home town weather would let me wear it more.
                  There is a super cool sticker somewhere in that image.

                  The journey is the objective.

                        This jacket is a jewel for motorcyclists:

                        • very wind resistant and warm under a motorbike jacket
                        • packs small and light (+ no wrinkles)
                        • thin & slippery so won’t bulk up at the arms, armpits nor chest while putting on your outer jacket
                        • looks GOOD on its own when you are off the bike without your outer jacket

                        Don’t hesitate…only downside is it makes me wish I lived somewhere cooler/colder!

                        The journey is the objective.

                          It is probably my most worn Iron Heart piece…....

                            I think this jacket would be damn nice and even more functional with a zippered pocket in collar that contains a hood just like the M-65 jackets.

                              @cityofdelusion I have some jackets with thin zip in hoods and rarely use them (I also understand that you didn't ask for my opinion on the idea). It does add some nice rigidity to the collar though.

                              On this topic, when Haraki debuted the FW/21 collection on Intagram in Japan, he showed an IHJ-79 with a hood. I asked @Giles about it and he said that they didn't bring it over here because they never got to get their hands on a sample before they ordered their collection. I think it was called the IHJ-102 or similar. I've tried to track down more info on it with no luck.

                              world tours:
                              888 Fat guy chocolate WT

                                @jordanscollected Better to have something you may need one day than not to have it 🙂 I think this way, both customers that want a hood and that don't want one would be satisfied. It benefits both parties rather than just one (as it is right now). For me, it's only intuitive that a water-resistant functional (and light) jacket like the IHJ-79 should have a hood. But of course I respect your view on this.

                                Regarding the new iteration of this jacket with the hood: I'm so excited about hearing this! Thank you for letting me know 🙂 I hope we can see more very soon, this is great news @Giles

                                Edit: Are we talking about the IHJ-79 with a hood or a hood hidden in the collar? I was referring to the latter.

                                  It isn’t if you’re riding a motorcycle.

                                    @neph93 I was referring to my idea of having a hood hidden in the collar like the IH M-65 jackets. Don't want to create a large discussion here but: By that logic, if you're riding a motorcycle, you don't need the hood on the M-65 jackets, the IHJ-75 or IHJ-100 (?)

                                    If you're riding a motorcycle and it bothers you, simply don't take out the hidden hood.

                                    I understand that IH makes products for bikers. Then you simply don't use the hood if you're riding. And when you're not and you need a hood, you can consider yourself lucky that your jacket has one hidden in the hood. Intuitive, if we're talking about a functional jacket imo.

                                    PS: Edited the message to express myself better.

                                      IHJ-79-BLK is my most worn IH piece.  If I want a hood, I'll wear a hat or something with a hood.

                                        Exactly. So: If you want to wear something with a hood, how about the IHJ-79 with a (hidden) hood?

                                          This is explicitly a riders jacket, the M65 is not.  I don’t disagree that functionality would be increased for the casual wearer, but if you are going to design a jacket that should act as an insulating layer, under leathers, for a rider, this is it, and a hood is superfluous to that design.
