IHM-04 - Alpaca Lined N1 Deck Jacket - Olive, Black and Navy

[Bluegrass]

I just picked this up at the Self Edge Let's Drink sale - getting something this nice on sale feels like stealing.  Hello to my new new "go-to" warm winter coat!  I couldn't be happier - love the fit, esp. the long arms, knowing it will work as a motorcycle jacket.  I can see spending many happy years with this jacket.  The only negative, it has the dreaded "lefty" zipper!  But all things considered I can live with that…

looks great! how did you size?

Ditto, great pickup @Bluegrass

I don't get why they make get left hand zippers.

My usual XXXL - the fit is really good - I can wear a sweater or heavy shirt under if needed.  I'm wearing a t-shirt and IH chambray in the pic.  Damn this thing is nice.

Nice pickup @Bluegrass. Fit looks spot on.

Looking good ruben.  I don't mind for it to get a little colder here just so I can bust out in mine.

Looks great when oversized (or are you rather short)?

[ruben]

I'm 5"7 @Max Power hence the oversized look. It's actually a bit snug on the shoulders so no chance of me having squeezed into the Small.

I really like the look, mine is short on me.

I like the look as well. And 5.7 ISN'T SHORT (for fucksake) 

(Not that I care: I'm 5.75!)

But they work for us southies.

Good point, IH is showing some love for you guys!

@Giles am I completely insane for even considering having a tailor attempt to remove the sleeves from my 04? It just doesn't get a look in at the moment and the idea of a black deck vest is very tempting. Just wondering how similar the construction of the bodies is and if this would even be possible.

Thanks!

It´s my third Winter in this jacket and it still looks brandnew.

Wearing mine a lot These days too. What I find fascinating: it is much warmer than some other jackets I own, but you only realize it when it's really cold. We had -9°C and strong (!) wind and it was fine.

^  pics or it didn't happen you Germans.

this is actually my favorite version of the IH Deck Jacket, that black lining really set it apart from the herd

[Max Power]

Exactly my feelings. The black alpaca is awesome.

Yeah, I know I haven't posted much lately. Will try to do that soon. But I can assure you, navy looks great paired with the 816DD and the navy Mc Coys Muffler.
