We don't yet. We know thats what we were targetting, but until they arrive we cannot know for sure

This is a fantastic option coming up. I'm hoping for an olive option as the special edition.

I just noticed that in the “features” description, its says the YYK two way zipper will be lighter weight than the regular N1.

Can anyone elaborate on this and hopefully it will still be metal. One of the things I love most about my N1 is the butch looking zipper.

[Boit]

Per web pics, appears same but lighter weight

IHM-35-KHA

@Brandrea Just a quick and dirty pic of the two side by side. Lightweight on the left, 'regular' N1 on the right:

Zips are very similar in shape with the lightweight zip just being a little smaller in size. However i would say that this is just the sample! Things may change in production

[Brandrea]

@Ross Thanks for that detail and side by side.

I’m glad to see it’s the same design aesthetic. If I had my way it’d be the same size, just in keeping with the overbuilt ethos of the N1.

I´m already curious about the sizing. Looking forward to when they drop It will be an amazing all-year-round jacket.

This is quite definitely my 2025 IH purchase ️. Is there any more or less concrete speculation on the time of release?

[Tago Mago]

@RobeOfTheMagi see here. Due to the unpredictable nature of production and delivery there is no release schedule for the seasonal collections anymore

[RobeOfTheMagi]

Thanks for the info @Tago-Mago!

[RobeOfTheMagi]

Is this significantly less warm than the A2?

@jimcord I walked around with the sample on for a bit over a tee and this is definitely a California coast jacket, will do the trick most of the year up here in Santa Barbara.

@RobeOfTheMagi best info I can find at the moment as @TENDREL is one of the retailers.

Ooof, that is so subjective, and I havent worn the Diet N1 as the only sample is a Large and im an XXL, but I wouldnt personally wear a full fat N1 in temps of 10C / 50F or above. I can see this one working up to maybe 15-20C over a tee, depending on the person

…and this from Alex

[RobeOfTheMagi]

Thanks so much @goosehd!

[Brandrea]

Every time time thread gets bumped I get my hopes up lol

Waiting patiently.

[SKT]

@Brandrea same.

Coincidentally, I was handling these jackets yesterday. The A2 is significantly heavier than the diet-N1 (liking that nickname!). A2 is a proper winter jacket, where as I can see the IHM-48 being a year round layering piece.

[Ikeaparty]

@AdamJ happy to hear this! I have the a2 and for Vancouver it's a wear on cold days kind of jacket, the n1 is too warm for me in our climate as much as I love it id barely ever get to wear it. Need something for between cold a2 days and the more mild UHF or type 3 only days though, sounds just about right for that!

[Brandrea]

@AdamJ

It sounds like the perfect jacket for shoulder seasons here, but I already knew that.

Dear Santa …I’ve been mostly good this year. I’d love to see this drop soon. Thank you, Brian.

Bump! This or the secret color way I hope will be my 2025 IH purchase
