IHM-30-IND - Whipcord N1 Jacket - Indigo

[Nik]

Yes I machine washed it on the wool setting and I guess the wool is a bit more matted and less fluffy but it doesn't affect the comfort or warmth in any way.

Lads, I just realized that 10 years ago people left us hints about this

...and advice not to try waxing yourself from a former mod here:

Pretty good conversation of his experience if your read the following posts.

@goosehd Well spotted Goose!
This is one of the reasons I was enquiring about how to buy the ingredients for the coating that Haraki went for in the present incarnation of oiled N1s. The urethane/paraffin mix is not sticky at all.

Four years into the journey...

The fades on this fabric are very subtle and hard to capture on photo:

Some fraying on the hems of the sleeves:

Also the lining is wearing thin in some places like the collar:

Came across these images in my search for info on this particular model so figured good to post here for anyone else researching this coat.

@Daniel-San if you do an advanced search for 'wash N1' in posts, you will find lots of anecdotal evidence, for eg:

@chbronsonx said in Washing your duds in suds:

I just washed my n1 deck jacket three days ago. I just put it in the machine and used the wool mode + spinning to 0. Guess it's almost as gentle as a hand wash but to be honest I don't have a clue.
Nothing happened, no shrinkage (didn't measure) or damage. Just cleaned. Ok, it took 3 days to get it dry but yeah… almost 10°c outside, no need for a deck jacket.
