im normally L in IH UHF/N1 deck jacket - Just wondering about sizing on this - Found an XL in the wild and just speculating will it be too big? Haven't worn anything similar before. Plan is to use it as a layering peice over UHF/cpo shirt.

@ugogreevy The sizing for this one is very similar to the N1 jacket, so you'd probably want to stick to your usual sizing. If it helps, I'm a Large in UHF, but would wear a Medium in the N1. I can get away with a Large N1 if layering, but it looks pretty bulky on me, definitely wouldn't want to size up. As always, though, it depends on the look/fit you're after, so it's best to compare the measurement charts.

@SamD Thanks Sam - I'm probably best with a large or even possibly a medium so. Ill keep looking!

Curious how warm is this one compared to the previous N1 vests with the wool / alpaca?

[SamD]

@ugogreevy No probs, good luck!

@natefreezy very similar

[CosmoSix5]

It's great warmth to weight ratio. The poly must be lighter than wool/alpaca.

@CosmoSix5 Nice pic! I had the previous N1 vest but lost it so was looking for a new one. Wasn't sure if this model would be less warm but doesn't sound like it! In part I like that I can wear these over my leather jackets and make them more winter appropriate (and obviously UHFs, CPOs, etc).

@natefreezy it was 18° at 6am and I was fine with that setup. Except my fingertips but that's not the N1's fault

@CosmoSix5 Now I want the muffler too!
