IHV-46-KHA - Whipcord N1 Deck Vest - Khaki

[Alex]

@patty69ih nice idea - would be a good colour for a future deck vest, for sure.

For anybody that owns an N1 vest… Did you tend to size up? Seeing the XXL on the model makes me think that I may want to size up. Especially to wear a hoodie or UHF underneath. (Which I know is usually the case for layering.)

Just looking for any information or feedback, thank you

@Danimal506 I did not size up as 95% of my IH shirts/hoodies/jackets are all XL. I find that the XL N1 vest to layer very well over them with the ability to zip it up and wear comfortably. As always, double check measurements.

@goosehd Great! I’ll have to take some measurements of my body while wearing my IHSW-10 and give myself a better idea. I wear an XL in the hoodie and UHFs.

HI all. I just had a query re product authenticity.
I just purchased a khaki n1 vest from a famous online auction site that purported to be brand new. It feels/looks to be authentic apart from one detail. The pockets are corduroy lined rather than wool. I was wondering if anyone had come across such an iteration or have I been had? Always a risk but I took a punt. It'd be interesting to hear either way as I could potentially return it if not authentic or at least raise the issue with the host site.

@ruffbadger Can you share images if possible? Cord lining on deck vests is not something I'm familiar with but not 100% sure to say if it's legit or not! Or share the link to the original listing if still available

[ruffbadger]

Hey , thanks for getting back. This is the listing. The swing tag is the same size as a real one but not quite as glossy a material.

@ruffbadger from the images, it looks legit to me. The only thing mildly confusing is the corduroy pockets you mention. I'll have a look back at previous iterations

[ruffbadger]

Thank you, must appreciated. Like I say it feels pretty legit, that detail threw me. though. Only noticed as I have a long sleeve khaki n1 and love the wool pocket lining!

[AdamJ]

@ruffbadger Nothing I can see in the details of previous iterations but, it doesn't look fake to me. Enjoy!

[ruffbadger]

Thanks. There's always that feeling in the back of your mind!
One other thing is the wool lining extends all the way down to the bottom of the jacket, ie wool shows through the holes where the waist drawstring would exit which isn't the case on my long sleeve.
