Freenote Cloth
-
I'm a huge fan of Freenote Cloth shirts. I don't own any of their pants but their heavy flannels are fantastic. The Benson I have is really heavy and warm. They can be picked up on sale quite often which makes them a steal. They are an excellent value at full price but IIRC I picked this up for under $200 USD.... This pic was taken on a cold day here in Pennsylvania US and I was perfectly comfortable all day, even when riding horses.

I just purchased a pair of Wilkes in Kaihara 14.5 denim, very interesting construction for jeans with the double stitch outer and inner leg seams. Look forward to seeing how they fade

@Mizmazzle dope jacket man! Freenotes quality is so good. I love what they’re doing. I’m sure that thing is crazy warm with the fur
-
Just picked this one up today...took advantage of Franklin & Poe's BF sale which includes items already on sale. Shirt was around $150usd...wow. The color on this is just stunning in person. This was a steal....
-
@Mizmazzle That looks amazing!!! I can't wait for mine to be delivered...tt definitely looks up to the task in the snow...love it...thanks for posting that pic!
-
Love this Freenote jacket. The quality is unreal and the fabric is so unique. Should keep me warm this winter
-
@travisxray that jacket is sick man!! What kind of fabric is that? Love how Freenote can add all that plush lining but still keep the jacket so trim fitting. Pretty incredible.
-
@Mizmazzle It’s a 15 ounce pigment dyed fabric. Almost has a waxed canvas type feel but it’s not waxed. It’s really impressive in person. It’s “black” but has a almost faded color that makes it go with literally anything.
-
@Mizmazzle and yeah the fit is nice! This is a medium and it fits very well. For being so insulated it really does stay super trim fitting.

@SaddleSC I’m stoked to have another forum member rocking this jacket. It’s always cool to get pumped on another members fade progress. Case in point the Lefty Trucker thread. Mad heads raging that one! Got mine on as I type this chillin on the couch. Not really possible in the RJ2 haha

Thanks! It is always fun to share new pieces with other IH brothers! How long have you had the Lefty Trucker? Is yours OD or non-OD?
I recently bought the OD version fo the Lefty and it is surprisingly a very wearable beast of a jacket...I am loving it so far! I am also trying to break in a IHSH-293 18oz OD CPO shirt...so every night my hands are stained blue and I am loving it.
I also grabbed one of the new IH A2 Deck Jackets so I look forward to comparing it to the both the RJ2 and the N1...exciting times!

@SaddleSC really curious to see what you think of the RJ2 in comparison to the N1. I’d love to pick up an N1 someday. Not sure if these two fill the same need. But when has “need” ever mattered to the jacket obsessed??
Agreed! I have a bit of a jacket obsession. I really love the Iron Heart's interpretation of the N1. After adding the oil-finished black version this season, that brings my total to three of them:) I plan to sell at least one of them in the next month or so, but my favorite seems to change on a daily basis.
I will be sure to post a comparison between the RJ2, the IH N1, and the new IH A2 that I snagged on black Friday from ISP.
I don't have a shipping confirmation yet for the RJ2 but I will keep you posted. Hopefully, it will be dispatched tomorrow fingers crossed!
-
@SaddleSC A comparison would be cool to read. The N1 is one of my grail pieces for sure so the RJ2 has def been on my radar. I just picked up an 11oz western flannel from freenote--interested to see how it stacks up to my UHF's

Thanks! As soon as I get the RJ2 and A2 in hand I will start posting some comparison pics with my N1...keep us posted on the Freenote flannel. I have a bunch of UHFs but this season added a few UES heavy flannels that I have been very happy with. I am interested to hear your thoughts on the Freenote!
-
in regards to the 11oz flannels from Freenote they are very nice. I only have one but I would like to get another. I feel they stack up well against the UHF it is a matter of which you like the fit of better or the color/pattern.
