    @erazerhead, if I were you, I'd look into Canoe Club, based in Colorado. If you email, maybe you could get them to notify you as soon as they have them. While IH UK sells out super fast on some items, I've seen other shops keep items that sold out here in stock for some time. The most most popular jackets are going fast from US retailers this year, so I wouldn't delay if you decide you want it, but you at least have a chance there.

    Also. I know the rapid sell outs on some key items can be frustrating, but as @Giles has mentioned, they can't always predict which items they can move a ton of vs 1-2 per size, and they can't really afford to get stuck with tons of unsold product. Yeah, IH is expensive, but I don't think the margin is too big by the time they pay import taxes and ship it out, and sometimes that leaves people without a really cool item just to make sure business remains viable for them.

            I picked mine up yesterday. It is realy nice, sadly it is allready getting to cold for this kind of jacket.

            I put it on anyways, since I only had to spent a short time outside on the was to work.

              @Cole I was just about to x-post your WAYWT…  😃

              Brilliant fit. What size did you go for, L?

                Yes, @neph93 I went with the size L. It turned out to be the right choice, since I still got some room for layering.

                    Anyone know if this fabric will shrink at all?  I got it in a size L and the sleeves are super long on me… I'm gonna take it to my alterations person today to see if they could shorten the sleeves (and still keep it looking good) but if the fabric might shrink (with wash and dry) then I'm a bit hesitant to get it altered...

                    Thanks!

                      I would not expect significant shrinkage from the fabric I'm afraid

                      The devil is in the detail..

                        Ask @Max Power , as far as I know he did wash his IHM-08 and has first hand experience.

                          Fabric is different in this version….

                              Hey all,

                              Not to stick my head in here in case I'm misunderstanding, but this jacket isn't completely sold out  :-\

                              Hit me up at Chase@shopcanoeclub.com if you want sizing questions or if I can help out with anything else… just helpin' y'all get into this jacket before the Boulder locals gobble it up. They're technically not online yet so you'd have first pickings.

                                Thought I'd chime in here as well… I couldn't decide on release day so I bought both Olive and Grey (size L) and recently lucked in to the RMC version for a good price.  At this point I will only be keeping one of them so pretty soon I'd expect that a size L will be coming back to IHUK in one or both colors olive and grey...

                                Anyway, pics below for comparison purposes for those interested!  (and one bonus pic showing all 3 + the older OD version!).

                                Initial observations are that the IH version, as expected, is significantly more heavy duty and better put together which is not entirely surprising... some key differences between RMC and IH are:

                                • RMC version is lighter weight
                                • IH version has stitched in lining
                                      - RMC version, the hood can be laid flat against the back since the lining is not stitched in
                                      - IH version, hood must be rolled up in to neck because lining is stitched in
                                • IH version has hand warmer pockets and internal pocket
                                • Even though pics may not reflect it, RMC and IH olive color are very close in color with IH variant feeling slightly heavier weight

                                I really do love both the IH and RMC versions for different reasons but your opinions are certainly welcome!

                                  IH-OLIVE wins that round… GREY #2... RMC not even top ten material...

                                      I'm clearly showing a bias here but the IH olive wins hands down. I'm sure some might prefer the RMC version since they're a repro company but they charge a bigger premium, which to me isn't worth it when put alongside IH

                                        I'm strongly leaning towards keeping the IH Olive version over the rest but still on the fence between RMC and IH in terms of which one I like more… the RMC version fabric feels floppier (which I like).

                                        Any ideas if the IH fabric will loosen and break in over time?  I imagine that it would but thought I'd ask the experts in case anybody has any definitive answer on this type of fabric and how it breaks in.

                                          It's a new fabric so no one really knows but it will soften with wear because cotton based fabric does.
