IHJ-152-BLK - CORDURA® Fleece Lined Windbreaker - Black

[RubyRae]

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.

@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

Thank you @Nick

@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.

Picked up an XL for a good versatile technical jacket. I was originally going to grab the IH-153 Primaloft quilted Riders jacket, but it was pushed back a year due to some production issues. I figured I'll get one next year, and these are different enough and serve slightly different purposes. Love this jacket, and actually very warm with the fleece lining throughout. The Cordura shell fabric is impressive and will be a great jacket for riding my motorcycle. As with many IH jackets, the pockets and collar are top notch. This is certainly a "collar up" jacket and will get tons of use this winter. Special thanks to ISP for amazing customer service. Ready for the snow storm here in the midwest.
