We did this a few years ago. Admittedly not oiled....

Sorry, probably not part of this thread entirely, but I managed to trap my N1 jacket in a door and broke a button, how can I get a replacement?

@Gulliver @ShopatIronHeart should be able to help you out and give you some advice. They’ll be in tomorrow and should be able to get back to you.

@Gulliver

I have spare buttons at HQ, next time you order, or a friend orders, just drop us a note in the order field or send us an email letting us know what color deck jacket it is and if it is a placket or latch button and we will get you a couple,

Alternatively, if you would like them shipped straight up, it will be the standard sub $200 order shipping cost to your country.

@Graham Thanks, it’s the jacket that’s in this thread. Christmas spending dictates it may be a bit of time till my next purchase, but I’ll try then. Thank you.

@Gulliver try super-glueing that broken button in the meantime. As the aren’t typically subjected to great stresses, should hold up nicely. Bet it’ll also look cool.

@motojobobo It took a bit of time to locate a missing part of the button that broke in to three, but thanks for the suggestion. When I get home (visiting family for Christmas) I may well give it a try.

@AdamJ Thanks for the answer, I was going to ask the same question as @americanathreads. If you pull it out, how easy would it be to thread back in at a later date?

[AdamJ]

@m4xime It's pretty simple to re-thread, we use a small metal tube (someone will give correct me with the actual name) to attach the whipcord and it makes it easier to hold whilst threading. I'll find a link to the tool we use

[AdamC]

These are what we use @m4xime , purchased from Amazon

Amazing thanks @AdamC and @AdamJ, I'll go ahead and remove it later today

Just scored mine from @flannel-slut in the buy and sell. It’s so killer. Fits just right in terms of measurements - chest, length, sleeve length etc. Only thing is the elbows are a bit tight when I bend them. Will they break in and give a bit with wear?

[m4xime]

@chillmonroe Not going to be helpful here but mine fits the same as you and yes also a bit tight in the elbows when really moving around but I think I'd prefer that to the sleeves being too long personally. The fabric has definitely softened over time.

[chillmonroe]

@m4xime totally, would def prefer it to longer sleeves. I also had a black one from the 2023 batch in medium and it was too big all the way around. Good to hear it softens up a bit! I’ll just have to beat it into submission

[chillmonroe]

Happy to report that after a few weeks of wear, the elbows did get a bit more pliable. No more room in the elbow to be clear, but just not so stiff anymore. This is now my favorite winter coat 🤌🤌
