IHM-35-ODG - Whipcord N1 Deck Jacket - Olive
-
@Joberwocky Nope. I wear SP-L shirts and this is also SP-L. The N1 does feel a bit more roomy, though - the shirts are all slightly tight in the chest. Would probably wear 5XL shirts if they existed. This fits me perfect with a tee and is still comfy with a knit or UHf under it.

The jacket is substantial
Few minutes of attempting to photograph myself inside and I could already feel myself wanting to sweatEnded up with a medium as it's measurements skewed slight larger than the other two colors, especially the black (Large in black was actually smaller than the medium I got). Much thanks to the IHUK crew and @JoshC for helping me get the sizing I wanted.
I can comfortably fit a UHF under it so that's kinda the sweet spot for me. Length is a tick on the shorter side than something like my 101SR which is what I was hoping for. I can get the throat buttoned pretty easily considering the rigidity of the fabric, though inside that kind of insulation is oppressive. The zipper is almost comically robust. It's an incredible bit of kit, and while I originally had hoped to nab the khaki I think this shade of olive is perfectly understated. It all worked out
Some photos by me in a messy "in the middle of laundry when it showed up" room, another by my wife who walked in from work on my photo shoot

Good score, would not change a thing about the fit.
The throat latch on my (RMC) N-1 isn't something I've ever used. More of a vestigial nod to the past as far as I'm concerned.
-
Solid fit @Joberwocky
-
@mclaincausey I only mention it because while I'll probably never actually do it up, if I knew I couldn't it would drive me nuts
-
Fit looks perfect @Joberwocky.
I'm surprising you ain't soaked in sweat knowing you got a UHF and that jacket on inside. I know I'd be
-
The UHF was put on solely for the photo since it was sitting next to me on the arm of the couch, then PROMPTLY taken off
-
I’m the same way @Joberwocky and fastened mine exactly once. I have a Roy shirt I can’t button the neck on. I never button necks but I sure as shit let him know about it. Very respectfully of course and I love the shirt regardless. It would have bothered me more on outerwear for some reason. Either way I think the olive looks great (mine is also olive).
-
This looks perfect @Joberwocky. Glad everything worked out.

Where I live the throat match is absolutely genius and vital in the winter months. We get A LOT if wind here and that wind can be brutally cold.

@neph93 since I figure there's more snow in the last picture of yours I saw than Maryland has seen in nearly a decade combined, I'll consider it the "in case I visit Reuben"-latch
-
Congrats @Joberwocky it looks great!
-
I might be in the minority but I use the latch on mine pretty frequently. The latch on my Buzz N-1 was tighter, but the IH one isn’t as bad. Not as good as a scarf, but a decent fill in and a nice option.

I found one of these jackets for sale from a person in Japan, in a medium. Unwashed and only worn a few times. I’m wondering if it will fit like any size medium in this item, aside the minor differences garment to garment in the same size. I wasn’t sure if IH items in Japan fit smaller or not. Maybe a dumb question but I couldn’t find an answer. I got a brand new one of these in Large and it’s just too big for me, and mediums are impossible to find. So I’m on the fence about this one in Japan. Any help/advice is appreciated. Thanks

The product sold in Japan and the product sold ROW is the same product. You can use the measurments here as a safe and accurate guide.
