IH-101J - 1946 101J Riders Jacket

[AdamC]

@Lowlander jacket looks amazing man!  Chesson who deals with the repairs and reinforcement is off on annual leave for the next week.  I am sure he will be able to add some reinforcement to the sleeves but I am not sure how easy it is to access those areas on the darning machine.  I will make a note for him to get back to you with some firm details when he is back

[Lowlander]

Excellent! Thanks a lot @AdamC!

@Giles:

We got the sample today.  It looks amazing in the 18oz vintage denim.  The sample is made with the brass tack buttons, but I think we will change to copper.  The old brass ones rotate and rattle, and whilst they look cool, we think it will be better to have non-rattling buttons on it.

Any update or timeline?

Currently scheduled for the middle of July…..

Can’t wait! Is it the same vintage denim used in some of the other denim?

[Giles]

We only make one type of 18oz vintage denim

That’s what I figured. Looking forward to this!

Saw this hanging on my coat rack, had to take a pic. I love this jacket and this denim.

Though I don't look it, I am very happy to be wearing this jacket again, after it has had some expert repairs done to the elbows by @JoshC (thank you again, Josh!).

Thanks man. I really love this jacket. It's my first IH piece and still my favorite.

Few years late to the game but just scored one in Grailed. Fit check? Also it’s a bit tight in the chest and elbows. It should stretch in those areas, yeah?

@chillmonroe shoulders look good, length is spot on for a riders jacket. take a picture of the jacket buttoned up and with the hands out of your pockets so we can judge better on p2p and sleeve length.

@tody ah, good lookin’ out thoughts? It’s a bit too snug for a UHF or a hoodie underneath as it is, but maybe if it stretches a little. It’s also tight in the elbows if I hug, but again, if it stretches

[steelworker]

Fit looks good I don’t usually button up , next size up might be too big

[Anesthetist]

Prob wont stretch that much in the arms tbh

Btw nice coconut chairs!

I think jean jackets in general look good as over layers and as tighter over just a tshirt. It’s of course less versatile when tighter, but it’s a cooler look. Depends on what you’re going for.
