      @Giles there was a discussion recently of having a Primaloft IHJ-79 with a hood. It must have already been in the works. Is that the main/only difference in the IHJ-102?

        The IHJ-102 is a quilted Primaloft jacket with a hood.  We did not see a sample of it as it was not completed when we had to submit orders, so we decided not to order any for the west…Sorry

          @Aetas:

          Calling @Cutlasshound 😉

          Couple of pics of the sample for the previous iteration of the IHM-34.

          As per previous post, obvious key difference between this sample and the upcoming FW21 design is the fact that my iteration has a quilted lining.

          Fabric is a super practical 7.5oz paraffin coated cotton. I would be interested to know if the upcoming version also used the paraffin coated cotton.  Had not experienced this fabric before and I have been thoroughly impressed with it.  It is very wind and water resistant and it has kept me secure from the elements on a number of rugged walks throughout the British weather over the last six months.

          One of the things I love most about Iron Heart is the eye of evolution when executing a design.  Unlike repro brands, Haraki-San is never afraid of taking something and (in my opinion at least) making it better.  For example:

          • The IH M-65 is so much more well thought out than the RMC version through the introduction of additional pocket configurations. I am lucky enough to own both an IH and an RMC version and if I had to pick, the IH version wins. No contest.

          • This version of a fishtail parka dispenses with the epaulettes seen on the M-1951 (huge plus imo) and also introduces two chest pockets, which I have found to be particularly useful in wet weather.

          All in all a bloody glorious coat.

          Apologies for the shit pics and the fact that haven’t had a haircut for four months!

                                      Have not decided.  I'm tempted by the 17oz natural indigo/organic…..

                                        Damn that's good, @Giles. Will there be an option for multiple hardware choices? Or will it be as-is?

                                          The tack buttons can easily be pimped, but we only have zinc as an alternative.  If you did that, you'd need to consider what snap to pimp with on the RHS chest pocket….

                                            17oz could be cool for sure. Seems like a lot of chore coats I've seen are classically lighter denim, so maybe even the 14oz could work. As much as I like heavyweight, I'd almost like something like this to lean light.

                                            EDIT: looking at the 17oz fades on the forum, that denim would be probably be spot-on. Nice vintage look, perfect for a chore coat.
