      G, have you ever considered a workshirt-shirtjac (Workshirtjac, maybe????)?

      I was dreaming about it last night, and then I got here today and see that people are going shirtjac/CPO crazy on this post… Seems like it would have a market for the bigger dudes who prefer to workshirt cuts, and the more full cut would be ideal for things like the lining that everyone is recommending.

        ^ agreed! The thing about the workshirt jacket (hereafter known as the wacket) would be that the wider cut, makes it even more jacket-like. Good call UnTucked [emoji1434]

          How about doing that in brown duck as a starter?

            That sounds AWESOME! Brown duck, and the metal snaps

              Scratch that…. No snaps. Donut buttons, like on the trucker jackets.

              Real, no bullshit workshirt, over-engineered to the maximum, in keeping with IH traditions lol

                Definitely no sewn-on buttons with heavy fabric. Donut buttons from the truckers and trucker vests would work.

                But work shirt with snaps tho…

                            I agree. I'm a huge fan of big chunky snaps. Plus I think adding donuts would take it out of whacket territory and into just-another-jacketland.

                                G, how do you feel about blanket lining, like the 71? Perhaps there is a less fussy sleeve solution? Blanket throughout would be boss.

                                  Someone else used it. Whacket is now officially a thing. This has made my Friday.

                                      That overcomplicates things and takes it into different territory.  I'm not saying I won't do it, but I am saying I will gingerly put one of my 8 remaining toes into simple whacketland….

                                        As an alternative to brown….. the indigo duck that the ihsh-100 was done in. Always regret missing that one!

                                          …still want that purple +cream uhf workshirt.
