IHM-40-GRN - Whipcord A2 Deck Jacket - Olive Drab Green

[SaddleSC]

@Johnnyutah247 Very cool! I have the Western also...the snaps and the back yoke, combined with the trimmer fit is what I love about it!

As far as the sizing...I almost always go with Medium in IH jackets, I have the N1s and also an M65 that fits perfect. I was worried that if I were to size down to Small, based on the measurements, it would get a bit restrictive in the shoulder/arm openings and sleeves at the elbow.

It is really a crap shoot when you cannot try these things on in advance. I will be happy if it has some room to layer, especially because the sleeves are lined with wool, rather than satin:)

I think we will both be happy! You will get the trim style you are looking for and hopefully I will finally have some room to layer a UHF or Loopwheel hoodie under the jacket!

Ugh. Very difficult to snag one in size small.

@Smiladon you found the absolute perfect fit. I would love to have one that fits that way on me. Can't decide which fabric though. Whipcord or the serge, decisions decisions.

First pic outdoors with this beast. Absolutely loving this jacket.

@mentalplane thank you good person
I bought the whip not even knowing, or perhaps forgetting, that the serge was also coming out. I like my other two whipcord jackets for the protection they provide from the elements so I’m glad I stayed with the whip. But that serge looks so good with its already faded look. It’s a hard choice. Ultimately just go with what one fits you best. I am super pleased with the fit. I’m always worried because I’m super tall that they’ll be too short, but because I sit in a car all day, I kinda like a shorter cut, you know like a policemans jacket or a piolet.

In regards to sizing for us smaller dudes i sized down from my normal small. For reference I’m 5’7 and 147lbs and wear a small in the N1 and M65. I was a bit worried with going with an XS but I trusted the measurements and everything worked out. Even with it being an XS it feels looser than the N1 in a small. A medium weight hoody or flannel fits fine under it with just a bit of tightness in the shoulders. I’m in love with this jacket

The jacket looks sick. Just wish there was an interior pocket. Still gonna but it though

@Smiladon I’m curious … what’s the difference between the serge and the whipcord? I own a whipcord N1 so I’m very familiar with that material. Thank you.
