I dunno what magic y'all worked but a single 4xl showed back up overnight so I snagged it. Many thanks to whoever made that happen!

Is this jacker warmer than the IHJ-38 - Diamond Quilted Primaloft Riders Jacket?

[AdamJ]

@RubyRae "warmer" is largely subjective based on how hot/cold you run. However, I would say the Primaloft will keep you warmer.

[RubyRae]

@AdamJ Ya, I should have phrased that as better insulating properties and/or wind resistance? It's tricky to tell because the CORDURA looks a bit tougher and wind resistant on outer shell, and the PrimaLoft appears better in keeping the warmth in vs the fleece. Both very nice versatile jackets.
Thank you!

Does anyone from the IH team know why a 60% acrylic 40% poly fleece was chosen?
From my experience with other companies only acrylic fleece tends to be very cheep feeling.

@lolnah Hi! The consensus is that first and foremost this mix is for warmth, and also to enable the garment to be washed and ease of care; similar to the reasoning behind the boa lining in the latest deck vest.

This windbreaker is impressive. I’m curious—does anyone know if the Cordura nylon used is 500D or 1000D?

Can I get a fit pic with the collar laid down? That’s y’all

@Choko Sure mate, give me a minute or two and will share images

@MarkFlores61 Sorry for the late reply! The Cordura fabric used here is woven with their 305D yarn, making it lightweight and pliable while remaining tough and waterproof. Hope that helps.
