@Alex The newly added two dual entry waist pockets (top entry) in this iteration of the jacket has a micro fleece (?) like lining, probably intended to act as hand warmers. This should be in the description of the product page since it's a really nice (and cozy) feature of this jacket which I'm not sure if the IHJ-75 also had or not - maybe in a different pocket since the IHJ-75 doesn't have the newly added pocket that this has?
Also wanted to add that the link at the bottom of this page doesn't take to the IHJ-138 product page ever since it was released.

The cap of the main zipper pull came off on my jacket when pulling on it to close the jacket - didn't even yank on it whatsoever. How can I fix this?

@cityofdelusion it looks like it supposed to have a pinch point inside the clasp. if you can pry it open and slide the 2 ends back in deeper than they were and snap it shut it should be fixed. If the ends don't want to go in due to fray, twist them or hit them real gently with a lighter to get rid of the frays.

@jordanscollected "Fixed" it this way for now, thank you! @Giles Thank you, will try your suggestion next time it happens again/if I lose the cap.

@cityofdelusion Great to hear. also for next time or a "piece of mind" addition this time, toss a small dab of super glue in before closing the clasp as added reinforcement. It'll do wonders.

Short update: Still collecting my experiences for a comprehensive review, but I wear my IHJ-138 to work and everywhere else lately and I haven't had a single time where I had to worry about getting cold.
Even wore it at 0 to -3 degrees celsius once over only a medium weight T-shirt as I was in a rush, and it felt even better than when I usually wear additional layers underneath the jacket. Very interesting.
