IHJ-131-RED - CORDURA® Windbreaker - Red

@Alex said in IHJ-131-RED - CORDURA Windbreaker - Red:

@GreatDenimFan i think it's probably a typo, the guys will check first thing Monday and we will update before launch.

Could someone explain what about this makes it Dry Clean only?

Don't know, actually, it's just whats on the label in the jacket

If you google washing instructions for Cordura based products, most of them recommend not putting them in the washing machine, but clean them by hand with soapy water. I guess it's the nature of the fabric that won't take the abuse of a spin cycle in the washing machine.

Is the sleeve measurement from the distal end of the raglan sleeve?

[Graham]

@GreatDenimFan This was indeed a type-o on one of the two pieces measured creating a bum average. Have now corrected and updated the chart.

@mdxjs - Raglan sleeve is taken from the centre of the neck all the way down to the the cuff off the sleeve. Can be seen in our previous how we measure video here @2:21

Look what I found on my doorstep last night! It’s very red but somehow also not too red and I love it.

A bit on the loose side when unzipped but I expected this and @JoshC was right that it’s good to have a bit of room under this one. A size down would definitely be uncomfortable on body length and combined arm/shoulder length.

Looks amazing and great fit.

[Twistlock]

Wow that colour is popping. Looking good @ARNC!

[ARNC]

Thanks @doubletee @Twistlock! Just need some ️ now.

@ARNC It looks really good on you! How many seasons or what temperature conditions do you see yourself wearing it? I’m eyeing it, can’t justify it, but want it…

[endo]

@ARNC I couldn't wear that colour but it looks good on you. How did you do the sizing, usual size? Also eyeing ...

[ARNC]

@goosehd thanks. I haven’t had a chance to test how warm it gets if I’m moving around in it but it should work well from now to autumn in the UK with different layers underneath. I would think there are better options for winter or for very hot summers.

Definitely fills a gap for me as all my wet weather jackets are insulated and too hot for the summer.

[ARNC]

@endo I bet you could, but there’s always the less exciting colours if you feel the need!

I went L - same as most of my work shirts - the P2P measurements are a little intimidating but I think for most people the top line (arms/shoulders) will be the one to focus on.

[JoshC]

@ARNC looking good mate, really suits you the jacket

[ARNC]

@JoshC thanks. I think it’s worked out well!

@ARNC looks great! If my wardrobe wasn’t already crippling under the weight of jackets, this is the colour I’d have picked too.

[ARNC]

@DeeDee85 I get that, but for me this is a different kind of jacket, and it goes in the coat cupboard not the wardrobe, so I can bypass that problem. You’re welcome to borrow either/both excuses if you need to

The colour really is great (the photos were cropped and nothing else, so the colour is fairly accurate).

[endo]

it should definitely come in more colours, like

[DeeDee85]

@ARNC I really debated this one in my own brain since the SS24 reveal… I don’t own anything light and fully waterproof so I was leaning towards buying it and talked myself out of it with the reason being “it would take away valuable wear time from my other non-waterproof fading projects I’m neglecting” to say we are a strange bunch would be an understatement wouldn’t it

[ARNC]

@DeeDee85 you’d probably have room to continue at least some fading projects underneath. I know, not helping!

[DeeDee85]

@ARNC you’ve got me checking if my size is still in stock now I’ve managed to slip in a couple of indigo shirts in lately with my wife thinking they are the same shirt, that excuse won’t wash here will it…
