I should have added my jacket arrived at 7AM Friday, on a very sunny day, not even 10 miles from me.  Still the same weather 'might cause delay' ever since then…I was hitting the F5 all day Friday, so now that key worn out for the next IH product launch!

Can't seem to get a decent picture with the lighting here at the moment so had to tweak this one. Still not great..

Really pleased with the fit, a tad tight on the shoulders but I'm confident that's to do with how stiff the whipcord is and will give after some wearing in.

some nice fits with this jacket. 
will these be restocked G?  guessing no chance.

[Giles]

No chance I am afraid.  They flew off the shelves in Japan and I could get no restocks.

That's a perfect fit there. Pretty jealous of all your new stuff…if you want to part of anything, hit me up.

[JCMx800]

Thank you! No reason to be jealous, I knew what I wanted since Summer, so I saved some bucks to get all the nice stuff

[Max Power]

So did I (and some stuff I didn't plan to get). Which means, I might get one of these next year, if I plan accordingly. just hoping they stick with Alpaca, it's what makes it much nice than the previous runs IMO.

just received my jacket and thought id share some initial impressions!

-i definitely thought it would be heavier/thicker.
-deck jackets make you look badass - the fit is great and its a jacket you want to wear.
-the sleeves dont feel too long at all, even though the measurements say so.
-the pockets are pretty small and not too functional
-maybe the ihm-02 and its many awesome features has spoiled me, but this jacket feels way less practical (i know, i havent used it yet..) but damn it looks great..

I have the original version of this, and just thought I'd chime in for those concerned about sleeve length:
Obviously it depends on your own arm length, but mine was too long at first. Just like jeans, once a more defined crease sets in (in this case, in the elbows) the length does shorten up. My length went from something that really bothered me to something that, while not perfect, doesn't bother me anymore.

Plus it has storm cuffs right?  Usually that makes a huge difference.

So how warm is this jacket? It's seriously on my want list.

i had my concerns when i opened the blue bag, cuz the lining is pretty thin. but the jacket is definitely warm! granted theres a slight rise in the temps around here atm, i think itll do just fine. just rode my bicycle home and im kinda sweaty haha.

for reference, last years winter and thus far ive been using the ihm-02 + a thin down vest. this jacket is warmer.

OhYo, your assessment of the 65 is spot on but the thing I really like about it is how mother grabbing wind proof it is.

Back on topic, alpaca probably has pretty intense warming power.
