IHJ-61 - Whipcord Work Jacket - Khaki & Navy
-
Received my khaki XL yesterday and its awesome. Very cool jacket.
-
Yet another IH sleeper. Crazy good.
-
Seriously….was going to post this in the under the radar classics section. This jacket is great, not enough love given.

I wore this lovely jacket in Dubai, and many of my coworkers commented to me how much they liked my jacket. It's a looker, and perfectly styled in a way that almost looks ordinary from a distance, but upon closer inspection, the fit, cut, and construction are clearly anything but. Someone commented to me days later and said "I saw you in a tan jacket. You know how to dress!"
-
Im definitely feeling that perhaps I need the khaki one too…...

Just got mine in navy and loving it so far… question for those of you who own one... how long did it take you to break in the jacket? It's a bit stiff for me out of the box but I'm assuming it'll loosen up over time.
-
I've used mine for a solid week, and the sleeves have started to soften up a bit
Good to hear, thanks!
Figured I'd do a quick fit check if you guys would tell me what you think… I got a size L and I measure about 42" around my chest. L seemed to line up best according to the measurements.
Just wearing a t-shirt (that's a little bit long on me) in this pic and probably don't have much room for anything much thicker than that in this jacket... Overall I think the fit is good but it's a little bit constricting when i try to move my arms around, which is why I'm hoping the fabric will loosen up a little bit and get softer over time. I Feel like if I sized up to an XL in this it'd just be too big overall... (for reference, most of my other IH shirts are XL)
-
An xl probably would've suited you better in the chest imo, especially if you typically wear xl IH shirts. But, the sleeves might've been too long on you

@tangfj I initially tried a large on my first order but ended up exchanging it for an XL. I'm normally an XL in shirts as well. My XL is still a bit restrictive when I'm extending my arms straight up but it works for me. I'm able to wear a T or thermal underneath it but doubt I could fit a UHF or hoodie but again, it works for me as I didnt buy it intending to use as a layering piece.
I think the sleeves on an XL might be too long for you as well. Jacket looks sharp AF though. I went with the beige but your pics make me want a navy as well.
-
Right… sleeves on XL might be too long but I could always get the sleeves altered... I suspect that might be what I need to do as well... the L is just a bit too constricting to be comfortable. I don't really intend this to be a layering piece either... will most likely just wear with a t-shirt or thermal underneath at most.
-
Yeah I would try XL then.
-
Thanks guys! I think you're all right… XL probably a bit better fit for me... only 1 XL looks to be remaining in Navy... sent e-mail to the staff already but in case anyone on staff sees this, please hold the Navy XL for me!
