I second Pirate Ship — usually a pretty solid price to get to the UK, similar to IH’s return label shipping, as in around $35. I did have one time where I had to send a package somewhere that was a little more remote than the more typical big city destinations, and iirc it was more like $50. I’ve found that UPS’s paperwork is really easy — just sign the docs and ask the peeps at the UPS store for the international sleeve to stick on the package when you drop it off.

I wonder about tracking with USPS: when I get a package inbound via Royal Mail or Canada Post et al, I follow tracking on their respective sites. Once it crosses over and is handed off to USPS, you can enter the tracking on its site and there it now is. Does this not work when sending a pkg to the UK — has anyone tried entering a USPS tracking number on the Royal Mail site? Worth a shot.

@popvulture I don't know about the UK, but the USPS tracking numbers work for me after it crosses into Canada's system (Canada Post). To date, I've not had any issues tracking.

@goosehd that's because Canada is the country everyone else aspires to be

@Mister_Brue man, fingers crossed it works out! Postal limbo is the worst.

https://parcelsapp.com/ is usually my place to go for tracking. The service is able to get all related tracking number from services to which the parcel is handed over. and also gives an estimate time of arrival, based on other parcels that have been tracked in the same time frame.

Track trace is another good site for tracking parcels
I’m currently using it for a parcel that was meant to be from an Australian company and shipped from here but is actually coming from China

Anyone knows what kind of material is used in the IH N1 deck jackets for ''additional interlining to increase wind resistance''?

[Alex]

@Karol i think its Japanese Ventile, @Giles ?

[Giles]

I don't know, sorry. I never bothered to ask......All I was told was that it was "an added layer for windproofing"

[Karol]

Reason I'm asking is that I was checking the specifications of my Trophy Clothing Deck TR.MFG Vest and it looks like they also included a middle layer. In their case its Thinsulate by 3M. This got me thinking that maybe IH N1s also have a contemporary technical fabric used for this purpose. Not a bad thing to add to the product description.

Did the IHSH-20 have different (smaller) snaps than newer UHF’s?

[seawolf]

@Mizmazzle Can confirm. I've done tie-dying and garment dying with their stuff, and it's very high quality.

I cant remember, I'd have to see the male part of the snap. And I can't find an image anywhere...

@Giles Amateurs...

Let me know if this will work for you.

[chrisjohnnick]

Yup that’s what it looks like! I just acquired one from Grailed, and was surprised to see the same snap as my older -13’s. Looks like those! Thanks!

[chrisjohnnick]

Here it is next to my other similar looking UHF. I knew the 20 had the size tag on the side on the neck tag, but just wanted to make sure it was legit!

[Giles]

Yeah, those are the smaller snaps....

[popvulture]

Man that’s a buffalo I’d love to see come back

Not sure if this is the right spot for this post, but wondering when the Spring/Summer 2025 catalog will release, or when new products typically begin to get announced?

@MSav32323 I have moved your question to here and the answer is “It will happen when it happens”.
