Some killer fit pics flowing in. Nice job guys. Still waiting for mine.. Delivery not till Tuesday
The joys of living Downunder..It appears mine won't be showing up today as I originally thought
Yeah, UPS kinda suck actually, no saturday deliveries (which I think most are anyway), and you cant ask to pick it up from the depot unless they have attempted delivery. So if you miss them your waiting another day.. DHL you can just ring them up and ask for it to be changed to be picked up from the depot.. So much easier.. for me anyway. Plus us aussies get hosed over from the distance shipping from UK or US anyway..
Its always a pain anyway shipping close to the weekend. 2 extra days of the wait game.. Oh the lessons in patience bagawanzzz.. hihi..

@Scottystyles you can do the same with UPS. You can set it up to have the package delivered direct to your local UPS store without making an attempt at your residence.

Possibly not in Australia. UPS have different policies depending on region. In Norway they don’t even exist outside of Oslo so it’s effectively EMS that takes the parcel to you from when it clears customs. Get’s delivered to one central post office. No choices.
DHL on the other hand, have a full service program with in my town with multiple drop off points you can choose in advance.
They’re both a bunch of bandits when it comes to battering the end user with charges.

The joys of living Downunder..Denmark isn't faster and we're a whole lot closer than you guys! Guess it's a combination of distance and size of the country.
If you can't change the delivery whilst the package is en route, next time have IHUK send it directly to a pick up point. I'm rarely home when UPS arrives, so I prefer to pick up the goods in the evening after I've gotten a message that they've arrived.

Excellent fit pics so far, gentlemen
I'm a bit astonished, about the moderate number of sales to date (considering the gigantic hype before the release) ..
weird IH-universe ::)
I’d say it’s done very well for a jacket. Jackets and shirts are two different beasts. A few days after release and some popular sizes are gone already. That pretty much never happens with a jacket.

@manufc10 Na bro, already tried that. They dont allow us to do that in Australia unless its had a delivery attempt.. I guess different countries have different policies.. I guess I still get it, just longer waits.. The part that sucks! haha!!

weird IH-universe ::)I was expecting these to completely sell out, but as @neph93 pointed out, this has done well for a jacket. Not too long ago we were all commenting about how little stock IHUK was getting, but this appeared to be the right move.

Yep, like neph said rhese have done pretty damn good for a jacket. Also, another thing to consider is the timing of this release. Here we are in spring with a lot of places going full swing into warmer weather and people gearing up for that. So considering the timing as well it's also done pretty damn good. I know I know….the whole world isn't going into warm weather just yet but generally speaking a lot of places are which I believe plays a role.

I don’t know how @Alex and the crew feel about sales so far or if it’s too early to reach any conclusions about how correct the quantities are. From a personal perspective, my preferred choice in my preferred size sold out quickly. It was one of those cases where if the cash was available I would have scored it at 16:01 on release day. As it is I’d have had to wait until pay day to pick one up. That won’t happen now, barring a return or me using another vendor (which I tend not to do).

I agree that it has sold well generally, though surprised how few blacks have sold compared to the other two colours. We did expect them to sell better given the hype on here recently, but like I said yesterday that's why we often get numbers wrong

It looks like it’s selling great compared to the original.

Makes me wonder if this has more to do with what staples people already have in their wardrobes. I like black but I already have the IHxSE od type III and the ihm-20 (though it doesn't appear black), so having a black corduroy type III would've felt redundant. Khaki, on the other hand, is one of those colors missing in my closet.

Do you guys in the very warm parts of the US not even need a light jacket in the evenings?
I lived in Arizona, one of the hottest places in the US, a large portion of my life. No jacket necessary at night in Phoenix if it’s summer. Other places further north need them though.

For me, the khaki opens up a whole new look, as all my other jackets are black or cordovan leather or black or indigo denim.
And from the fit pics so far, the khaki looks great, with a kind of vintage, even cowboyish, vibe.

I feel the same about khaki, it has a vintage vibe about it that I really dig.
