IHM-35-BLK - Whipcord N1 Deck Jacket - Black
-
I have the previous version. Has anyone tried to do anything about the weird fading? I absolutely love the jacket but the greenish tint it’s developed in places is ugly.
do you mean the black version has developed greenish tints?
-
Yes. I think the newest iteration is different. Mine is a few years old and has a weird fade. I don’t think i could photo well enough to capture.
-
Is the sizing of the current version of this any different than previous versions? I have a large from a year or two ago and it fits perfect.
-
Mine arrived this week and i love it so much, even more than i thought i would - and it fits perfectly, so thanks for your advice with sizing @Pipeboss713 its much appreciated!

@bigwhat62 almost certainly a 29 if you bought it in summer, the 35 came out the end of October 21

you are probably right. if we are looking at just timelines this makes sense. i didnt know when the 35 came out for the first time. if its initial release was this last fall then this 100% answers my question.
anybody know the big differences between the two?

The classic N1 deck jacket was first produced for the US Navy in the early 1940s. Much copied since then, it has become a true style icon in its own right. The Iron Heart version remains pretty true to the original jackets on the basis that "if it ain't broke, don't fix it". The one major, but unseen, change we have made is to add an additional interlining to increase wind resistance. A truly warm and great-looking winter jacket. For this years rendition we have added the interlining to the collar and tweaked the pocket placement very slightly.
Changes in bold from the OP. The other only other difference is a slightly different alpaca wool mix than previously

Thank you Alex. One more question, I see other brands offer deck jackets with shearling instead of alpaca. I dont know much of difference between the two as I have never seen shearling in person. Which of the two is warmer?
-
Is there going to be a 2022 version?
-
Don't see any reason to change it. Picked up one for fall and winter here and wore it almost daily. Absolutely amazing piece of craftsmanship.

My favourite piece of Iron Heart clothing.

I could definitely see the sleeves being an inch shorter at least but yeah it's a badass staple.
. It's a stunning Jacket.
