IHM-37-BLK - Oiled Whipcord N1 Deck Jacket - Black
-
5'10" 175ish here and the L is a good slim/trim fit for me. It's super comfortable with a t/flannel. There is enough room to layer a hoodie but it's a little snug in the shoulders at that point. I would say I have an "athletic" build with a few too many trips to the local cafe thrown in for good measure,

I must say i'm loving mine and it arrived just in time as it has been getting a little colder lately.
What i particularly like is the alpaca lining feels a lot softer in this version than the older standard N1 i have, which is nice (not that the older one is uncomfortable or anything, but this new oiled one is just noticeably softer) -

You most likely won’t need to worry about layering under it lol.

@WellWinn there you go. I just wanted to add another size comparable for dudes out there who are wondering ahead of the next “shot gun start” when the non-oiled ones drop! I actually ordered L only because the IH model Brendan is 6’3” and apparently wearing one. I have the good fortune of living in Vancouver so I was able to try both on at “The Shop”(
btw) XL was the obvious choice once I did.
Anyway as many have said it is all down to personal choice. -
so i guess if you missed the boat on this oiled one theres no hope of a restock?
-
@darbycrash Did you check all of the stockists? Surely someone must have one.
-
@darbycrash not this year

Hi, everyone - first time poster
I've noticed people mentioning other stockists - is that feasible though for a UK based person? As far as I know, it's 20% additional VAT from anywhere in the world into the UK, or is there a way around this that I don't know?
Thanks

@Giles Thanks - I'll have to be faster off the draw from now on!

What’s going on with your zipper? I found this heavy duty two way to be easy to zip. As long as you seat the zipper properly to begin with.
I LOVE the over size two way zipper on this jacket. It’s one of my favourite features.

@jbjones85 agreed, and it really looks the part
-
well, just took a chance on a small. really hoping it fits, worried im gonna need a medium.
-
I've bought a medium from the USA - stiffer charges than anticipated... an additional £274 - Still glad to get my hands on one and looking forward to it arriving on Monday.
-
Has anybody actually shortened the sleeves on one of these jackets? They are pretty damn long. Just wondering how they shorten considering the wrist button fastener etc.
And if so any pictures you can share please?
-
@Turbulence where did you find a medium
-
the small got here, and it fits, but is a bit tight around the pits and at the shoulders when holding my arms out and moving them around. is there any hope of this loosening up a bit up top after some wear?
the sleeves fall exactly where i want them, its basically overall a similar silhouette to a type III at this size. i really wish i was able to try a medium on, it was so difficult to find a stockist who would actually allow me to return it for a refund if it doesnt work, and none still have medium that im able to find. i suppose i am either stuck with small or SOL at this point.
-
@darbycrash I bought my Medium a week or so ago at Self Edge...they still appear to have size mediums in stock...it sounds like you would definitely prefer having a little more room.
