IHM-35-KHA - Whipcord N1 Deck Jacket - Khaki
-
@rovdjurstorget Probably size up. I have 8 IH shirts, all are L. I tried the lightweight N1 in L and it was hilariously big and boxy on me, it felt like I could fit two of me inside it and it was still a bit short. I went for M in the regular N1 (navy, but they seem to be similar in size).

30 days ago I opened up my closet and found myself struggling to hang in a couple of flannels. It's been that way for years. The struggle to find space. So many shirts, jackets, pants, boots, hats, I never wear, wasting space and missing out of being worn by someone who will truly appreciate them.
So finally, after years of thinking the thought of owning fewer things I really love, over quantity, I started photographing each item I never wear for various reasons, and posted them for sale. Long story short. In 20 days I had sold 9 items collecting more than enough cash to replace them all with this N1 Deck Jacket.
Last night I ordered it in XL, and I'm stoked to finally have enough room to fill out the empty space left behind by all 9 sold items combined.

@rovdjurstorget I thought the same thing originally but have found that M in both would probably be the best option and I'd go Large if I wanted to layer. The lining was not enough on its own to warrant a size up.
Sadly, neither work for me due to my shape. If you're going to be wearing layers under it, definitely take that into account. Sounds like the XL is the way to go based on what you tried on!
The devil is in the detail..
-
@DeeDee85 Totally. From now on I’m not buying anything new until I’ve sold enough stuff to completely fund a new item.
-
@rovdjurstorget I had a very similar strategy until I realised that the constant barrage of must have IH pieces far outweighed the value of things I had laying around in wardrobe
-
@DeeDee85 That is the hard truth.
Aside from this jacket, the only thing left in my bucket list is a waxed and lined canvas jacket, and a warm pair of winter boots to withstand this Swedish winter. Then, I’m good.
The N1 is arriving today, I hope I’m not swimming in it.

@rovdjurstorget Fingers crossed for you mate

You were correct. It arrived and I'm very happy with the XL. Living in Sweden gives me no option but to always count on being able to layer my warmest sweaters. In this case even my thickest Peregrine Aran jumper. The sleeves were as I suspected an inch too long but they were easily cuffed inwards.
Love it.

Thanks man!

Picked up 3XL few weeks ago and wore it almost daily since.

Never thought I’d actually have one of these but decided to splurge this year. So glad I did! This thing is amazing and very warm. Love how it looks a little different in color depending on the lighting. Also when I was checking out on IHUK it gave me the option of adding a paracord drawstring which was an awesome surprise. I had planned to add my own but apparently they are now offering it and it looks great! Thanks to the IHUK crew!
-
I bought this at my local retailer (Dutil) and was wondering if there’s a way I can get the OG drawstring for the hem from IHUK? Thanks!
-
@dnguyen I’m tagging IHUK @ShopatIronHeart but just to let you know that it’s just paracord.

I got a nice deal on a lightly used XL Khaki. Not sure if it was from this run but I suspect it was from the previous run. The fit is pretty much like the one I tried on at Self Edge. The sleeves are a bit long but workable. Almost considering taking it to a tailor to get them shortened. Has anyone done this to their jacket?
Also I noticed the jacket is missing the drawstring on the bottom. Is there a way I can get a replacement? Paracord or otherwise. @Bailey

@Skell6009 Hi, thanks for the message. I will send over an email to discuss how to obtain the Paracord.

Love my N1. Always looking for an Olive second hand. It's such a great jacket.
