IHM-10 - N1 Deck Jacket - 2015 Edition

@Max Power I guess it is for narrow-waisted people like me with a significant gap between hips and opening from which warmth tends to escape

@Max:

What does the drawstring acutally do? My Deck Jacket is pretty Slim on the hips already…does it really add functionality?

1.) The drawstring keeps the warmth inside
2.) The drawstring looks sexy
3.) You can fix 'things' on it … a bottle opener for example
4.) Customizing is cool
5.) You have a string with you (MacGyver mode)
6.) ...

Wow, nearly 100 € more than the original Iron Heart Price - someone has taken a big gulp from the bottle;-)

Germany has to do with more taxes, i think. as here in Norway…

[Jordan23]

Different calculation and costs!;)

Enjoy ya addiction!

There is no imperative for our retailers to charge the same as we do (or for that matter, the same as any other retailer).  The margins on Iron Heart clothing is small, sometime retailers decide that they need to charge more than IHUK to make more sensible margins…In the case of the IHM-10, I priced it a little low, both Rivet & Hide and Burg & Schild decided they needed to price it higher than us...

Global retail is something else & I imagine even trickier with the world  becoming  smaller

Yep, no problems with that - it's business thinking by the local stakeholder - and that's o.k. It's up to the consumer like you and me, where I'll spend my hard-earned money. I just wondering about the situation, that all the other stuff in the shop is approximately the same price but in case of this super-fast-selling-limited jacket it's an other situation, there is big margin on top. But as I said it before: we have the privilege of choosing and we're living in hard times and it's not easy nowadays - I understand both sides of the story and relax;-)

One of my placket buttons is starting to come away.. Can anyone recommend a repair place in Bristol or the SW who they'd trust to fix up IH gear?

Yes you.  It's easy:

I'll have a look, but I have zero belief that these pudgy fingers can do a good job of it..

[Giles]

I think you can do it…..
