IHM-35-OLV - Whipcord N1 Deck Jacket - Olive
-
Would you get this in the same size as the lightweight N1 that just dropped @SamD ? I got the lightweight N1 in large. Could have gone with Medium but it would have been too short.

-
@nrtphotos same. Khaki is just winning currently for me.
-
Can I get a fit check. Went into a store and they had a medium tried on and the person helping said it was too small. I’m a Large in western iron heart shirts and UHF and a large in CPOs. This is a large and wondering if I should see about returning for medium. I don’t ever plan to layer.
-
@bluemantra I think it looks good, especially if you're going to layer under it... I have a medium N1 and it's a little snug and I would have got a large if I could change that...
Ultimately up to you if you like the fit though, but I think it looks great.
-
@bluemantra the shoulder seams line up well and look to be a good fit. The body does look a little large, but inline with how the N1 should fit. I would be happy with that jacket and only could say for certain seeing the medium on you.
-
Yeah the shoulders felt a little tight with any movement in the medium. I really don’t plan on wearing anything but a t shirt
-
@bluemantra Do you have opportunity to go back and try the medium on again? If not I think the large will be a fine choice. Beautiful jacket, and you should be feeling over the moon about this new investment.
-
Very excited for this one tomorrow!
-
@bluemantra I think large looks good on you, I would choose large if I were you. May I ask your chest measurement just for reference? I'm 41“ chest and wondering if I should get a M or L.

Cheers! Same for the Khaki? Do they arrive to you first before going out to the worldwide stockists?

I can’t believe I snagged one! Last year when the 51 vest came out, I was scuppered by a slow Barclays verification process. It sold-out quick! The sadness I felt was palpable… much more than should be considered normal for a fifty year old man. I had my heart set on that damned vest. I spent a few days trying to convince myself that it wasn’t meant to be. Im still not convinced!
Anyway, when I knew the 35OLV was coming, I felt that purchase would dull the pain of disappointment, but I still had the nagging voice that was saying “but Iron Heart are getting more and more popular… they’ve even been in the bloody newspapers… other people’s thumbs are bound to be quicker than mine… my over-riding pessimism will ruin my plans…it’s the hope that kills you”. You know the sort of stuff. But today at 1600hrs, heart racing, fingers twitching, I came out victorious. The 35 shall be mine!
I now know how those Glastonbury folks feel on ticket release day.
To anyone out there who missed out, I feel your pain. But your day will come.
