      @Buckeye They really nailed it. Nice cross between lightweight jacket and bomber. I typically dislike bombers in general. I love how the collar goes around the neck.

        To be honest, this didn’t look super impressive online and I couldn’t figure out why it was flying off the shelves. I bit the bullet and grabbed an XXL, and I’m so glad I did. Perfectly constructed lightweight bomber; will definitely get lots of use!

        Same. I didn’t decide I wanted it until I saw it in person.

            I think being able to see it in person at the party could have motivated quite a few sales. Based on photos alone I though it was going to me much lighter but the insulated lining puts it in a mid weight range I think. So, I didn’t feel like waiting for an M1A.

                      Hey! I’m an XXL in the westerns and UHF, typically prefer to go XXXL on jackets for the shoulders and the chest. The XXL in this piece is perfect, and happy I didn’t go XXXL. I’m 6’0”, 207-ish. Hope this helps!

                          I thought all hope was lost, but found one the other day at Aitora (they still have M and L in stock if anyone is looking for one), and it just arrived today.

                          Wow, instant favourite. Very cool jacket. I'm sure this one will see a lot of spring/autumn use over the next few years.
                          Love both the bombers from this season.

                            This thread has been a little quiet and curious how everyone is getting along with these jackets. It’s one of those where I kind of regret not picking up, but did so because I have too many in rotation.

                            Are they warm, durable, windproof, etc.? Love to hear some thoughts and feedback on them.

                              Love mine, very glad I was able to find one after the party. IH technical/nylon stuff is so great. I’ll throw it on this weekend and will take some action photos on a dog walk for you.

                                I didn’t originally get it because I heard a green MA-1 was likely in the foreseeable future. (Orange lining 🙏). It haunted me and I pulled the trigger about a week after getting back from Gosport. Now that I have it, I can totally see space in my closet for both.

                                  @Matt I have talked myself out of Sage Green MA-1’s from Real McCoys and Buzz Rickson’s for the last couple of winters, if IH do make one I’m definitely on board.. you’ve got me crossing my fingers now!

                                    @Matt obviously, those are totally different jackets and implying otherwise is crazy talk.

                                      I heard it from a reliable source but the distance between We want to make this and It’s being made is subject to Japanese calculations.

                                            This jacket sold out so fast I thought we might see more posts. I'm guessing lower numbers produced?
