IHM-53-ODG - 12oz Whipcord Lightweight N1 Deck Jacket - Olive Drab Green

[Chibs]

Had no intentions of buying this one. None. Didn’t want ANOTHER green jacket. Another green N1 Wanted black or beige. But they brought me this one after I was hoing and humming about an other piece for way too long. So I was like “fine, I’ll just try it on”. The second I did my credit card basically jumped out of my wallet right into the pay terminal. Ffffffffffffffffff

You mean you have to take your credit card out of your wallet, has it not learned?

[Brandrea]

@Chibs Have to say, it looks great on you

[Chibs]

@Giles I need to train it to sit-stay much better in these circomstances

@Brandrea Thanks bud! Such a great jacket and I've got plenty of room for layering. Will probably get a ton of wear.

@Chibs I have last seasons khaki which I love but think the green is better! Managed to resist getting both ... So far

[Chibs]

@will6er I tried on the black last year and regretted not buying it. I think it's easy to resist if you don't have a local brick and mortar. Would love khaki too!

[rahrah12]

@Chibs kind of where I am...I know if I put it on I'd buy it.

@Chibs What size did you land on?

[Chibs]

@jglatz Large After trying it on I loved the way it fit so didn't bother checking out Medium.

Got my 53 today! While I love the jacket in general, what do you think of the fit? Was looking for something like this since I binged the show Lanterns and seeing Hal Jordan in a cool lightweight deck jacket from RRL

[Chibs]

@FlavourFade fits you great! I bought the Hal Jordan RRL and quickly returned it. Not even close to the IH imo.

Picked one up in XXL. Usually go for XXXL but glad I downsized in this one.

[FlavourFade]

@Chibs yeah I read a post on reddit that the RRL jacket is not that great, when I saw this one I had to get it

Should have grabbed a medium... suppose ill keep my eyes peeled to see if one comes available lol.

[Beerhammer]

I got one of these at the Franklin & Poe Anniversary party and I’m in love.

[jbphoto23]

Instantly my favorite jacket I’ve ever owned. This thing is top notch, as IH always is.

5’ 9”, 155 lbs for reference. Size Small.

Great review!! Glad I did not buy the RRL one. Tbh charging almost 150€ more (in EU) is mental.

For sizing reference mine is an XXL, could have sized down to XL but wanted to be able to layer a hoodie or heavier shirt aswell and with only a tee I will grab a denim jacket anyway but could wear the n1 as a solo piece too.

Ronja likes the jacket too!

@FlavourFade Thanks! I agree with you on the fit. Definitely more versatile as an outer layer with extra space. I think that’s the whole point to this piece (at least for me). Wore it with a T yesterday in 14°C but I’m guessing with a hoodie / Patagonia fleece will be comfortable @0°C. Once it gets to the negatives, I’ll bet my Anderson zip will be ideal underneath. We’ll see though
Amazing jacket, glad I didn’t pass on it again this year. Lesson learned
