While I stopped by in the forum a few days ago I thought I might as well throw a waywt in, haven't done this in ages. And getting old I don't recall the product codes.

@Mizmazzle cheers mate!

Actually that was me yesterday on the way to a show. The vest is of course IH.

So, here it is. First I have to say the my shopping experience with the rugged society was excellent, super fast shipping and packaging!

Well, for the jacket itself I'm fully blown away. It's softer and less thick than I expected, maybe also less warm. The fit is fantastic with a Tee, not sure if I can layer up for winter though. Anyway, I love it and will most likely get a lighter version in spring.

Edit: I can layer an UHF underneath. Snugly but not uncomfortably.

It's the 20oz wool blanket version in tobacco, which is more olive than on the 10oz version apparently.

Thanks so much! Much appreciated! Things are good in my corner, we're in the middle of buying a house and moving. So theres not much free time but we're doing great!

See you when it's more calm.

Cheers
Flo

Thanks to the Newsletter I read about this. Will try to swing by, my wife went to university in Bremen and we have friends there. Lovely city!

@Mizmazzle Thank you and cheers

@Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot thank you

So, as I said I am so fascinated by the waxed rj1 I had to get an olive 10 Oz version too. It fits a bit looser or might just feel like it, as its noticeably lighter and softer. I guess that's the best of two worlds, as I can layer it with an UHF and still get away wearing it with just a tee in spring.

Sorry for the indoor pictures, I'll try to take better ones soon.

For comparison I added my 20oz version.

@RobeOfTheMagi

I'm an XL in IH shirts and Type 3s, being 1,86m and 88 kg. The Freenote Jacket is a Large and fits perfectly, however if I had to work in it or would use heavy layering I imagine I could size up one. So I feel like a size M might work for you if you want a snug fit, but L could be the better choice for layering. There's plenty of measurements to be seen online, maybe they can help you.

If it helps, the fabric feels softer as I expected and the arms are quite roomy, so despite being snug the jacket doesn't restrict movement.

That piece looks gorgeous!

@BalticBob said in Freenote Cloth:

@Max-Power really nice Jacket! I had the Tabacco RJ-1 some years ago and the fit was amazing, I really liked the Jacket and I still think about it. I ended up selling it because it was way too warm for summer and it was not warm enough for winter, say that 0-8°C range. I'm curious how this one feels in comparison? Is it really warm? How does that 20oz canvas feel when you wear it? If you have it, how does it compare to the 21oz IH fabrics?

I have had my eye on the CD-4 over the last year but I have never found one in my size and I don't know how I feel about the shorter zip. It doesn't zip all the way to the top which might leave me with a cold neck

I haven't had the chance to wear it in really cold weather. I feel like it breathes fairy well and feels not too different from my lined leather jackets. So I guess it will be warm enough for our kind of winters with 0 to 6 degrees Celsius. With a hoodie or flannel it will certainly be fine. That goes for the blanket lined 20oz version.
The 20oz canvas is not overly stiff, but I have a few horsehide jackets in rotation so that is my benchmark. It's definitely comfortable to wear.

Thank you, it really is fantastic. I don't want to take it off and thus ordered the lighter one too...
