IHJ-61 - Whipcord Work Jacket - Khaki & Navy
-
Totally dissatisfied with yesterday's pic on the indigo waffle shirt thread (out of focus) today I tried another route. I'm now using my phone to trigger the camera's shutter. So here is the result.
My whipcord even got a 'nice jacket' comment from my daughter today, and she doesn't hand those out very frequently. It may be the first time she notices something I wear so kudos to IH! That signaled that this beautiful jacket merited a better attempt to photograph it.

It is indeed a nice jacket.

Nailed it this time @motojobobo

@IrishHeart Long extinct... Second hand market is you best bet, they occasionally resurface. That's how I got mine. What size are you looking for?
-
@tody thanks for replying and I suspected that would be the case.
I’ll keep an eye out. I am typically an XL in most IH tops. -
@IrishHeart If you are contemplating buying one second hand, you could always post a WTB ad in the marketplace here on the forum: https://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/category/28/want-to-buy

@goosehd great advice and thanks for your help. I should be better at navigating my way round this forum by now!!
-
@IrishHeart It takes a while to figure it all out and I still discover stuff fairly frequently. Good luck in your search!
-
@goosehd that’s reassuring to hear! Thanks again.

My jackass coworker trying on my jacket when it first arrived. We were in the Persian Gulf at the time, and I was trying on the two sizes that I ordered and he walked into our berthing and caught me checking the fit of the jackets. He thought it was hilarious and wanted to join the fun.
In other news, I've been wearing this jacket a lot lately, and it's been so perfect for the weather this time of year.

@tody It's such an amazing jacket. I was going back through the thread this morning and someone asked how warm it is, and Giles simply replied "fucking," and I couldn't agree more. It's perfect with a tee and a thin wool thermal in the 55F-65F (13C to 18C) range. It's quite breathable and the cord-lined handwarmer pockets are generous and cozy. A+
