Ordered one of these this week, should be here Friday! This has been a very anticipated release for me, I can’t wait to check it out in person.

You’re going to love it. Perfect piece for layering if you struggle to get a more traditional jacket (ie, Type III) over a hoodie. Also works well with a UHF base.

Such a great relaxed fit while simultaneously feeling like you’re wearing IH armor.

Hope you enjoy it!

@MTpockets that’s good to hear! That is exactly what I am wanting.

not sure if its just me, but I have been wearing mine pretty consistently since I got it and it seems like the material will be very fast fading based on what I am seeing already

How heavy / stiff is the fabric? I keep going back and forth on this. I have the Serge A2 and love it on there, but this is much heavier. Really want a version of the A2 but without the wool for warmer days.

Is it like 21oz denim or softer?

[MTpockets]

For a point of comparison - I have the 13 oz olive serge western - and this 21 oz windbreaker is noticeably heavier, but also softer (and perhaps a bit more pliable - if that makes any sense). Of course it has that typical IH armor type of feel when you first put it on, but after a few wears, like most pieces, it starts to soften up. I would imagine it's going to feel like butter down the road.

It's also the perfect weight. Not too light and not too heavy. Goes really well with a hoodie in 30 to 50 degree (F) temps. I don't have a bike but would imagine it would truly "break" the wind in that setting.

Appreciate it. That pushed me off the fence and I have one on the way!

@Masaz

Excited for you - looking forward to your feedback upon arrival.

I’m actually a bit surprised at how many of these remain. Perhaps it’s the non traditional cut vs T1/T2/T3. Certainly has a place in my wardrobe, even alongside those classic trucker types.

@endo Sick! looks great mate, digging the jumper as well!

[endo]

Thanks @JoshC it was @Alex_24 wearing his blue version when we met in Berlin convincing me I ‚needed‘ one. Such an awesome fabric!

[JoshC]

@endo yeah its a great jacket, so versatile as well.

[Alex_24]

@endo looks great on you, mate!

[jordanscollected]

@endo Money fit my IH friend. It's such a comfortable cut it changes the way i feel about some of my closet. Everything needs to be this great fitting.

[will6er]

It looks great. But for some reason don't want a jacket to fade so currently sleeping on it.

Looking for fit advice. Got one of the last ones out of fomo. XXL like most of my tops. I know I could have sized down but went for the xxl to layer with thick hoodie and my shirts. What do you think? Sleeve length and mobility feels great but does it look too bulky?

[endo]

I'd say you can size down, even with the hoody under it. There's one for sale here on the forum in XL. Or you get at least the sleeves shortened.

@endo good advice!! Actually it was your fit pic that made me want that jacket
