Y2 N1 with relatively new IH-555S-21od

IHJ-116
IHSH-401 (lovin' it!)
555S-142

uh oh.......

inspired by @pechelman and his amazing new jacket, I decided I definitely needed something cherry as well, so managed to track down this one - I love the colour, a deep, dark maroon/purple/red, maybe a little shinier than I am used too, but think it will age nicely!

i recently bought the IB-141 new, and also picked up an EB-140 second hand (although it was practically new) and i absolutely love the pair of them.
Both size 40, and i am usually a large in most iron heart shirts and jackets.

I especially find the colour of both jackets really beautiful, the green one has some real depth to it that is hard to see in photos.
The Eb 140 is also a bit thicker/heavier than the IB141, so is better if its a bit colder outside with the indigo more of a lighter, everyday jacket

this beast has landed just in time for the snow

its getting close to that time of year, so I decided to join grizzly club

oh god.....this just arrived, think it might be my new favourite......

yes! - finally managed to get my paws on one of these beauties......I've been after one for years, ever since I got my first N1 deck jacket - its in great shape (pretty much like new) love the colour, and is nice and warm....got to love that alpaca lining

a couple of days ago my boy told me that 'all my clothes say iron heart on them'.....and that when he's older he wants to dress like me! - my work here is done

@Slash said in Iron Heart Products - What do you think we should make?:

Other colors of the 17oz duck pants.
I'd like a sand-ish light brown other than the already existing, but pretty sure other colors would sell nicely

yes! I would love some in dark grey - similar to the recent double fronted shorts

@uclabruin I have the shop Vancouver green version, and I have also tried the regular navy version (and they both fit the same).........they are very warm jackets though, so It depends upon where you live I suppose, but I have never needed more than a t-shirt underneath when wearing mine

@uclabruin I am a L in UHFs and personally I would say yes, go with a 42, especially if you want to layer

@mrebant thank you, but unfortunately the XL is just too big for me......but I appreciate the offer, all the best

@Buckeye obviously its all down to personal taste - but I love the colour variation of the hand dyed leather.....it just gives the jacket a bit of a worn in look straight away, plus it just looks good to me and is something a bit different to my other jackets

@nrtphotos I've got/had a few y2 jackets and personally I have found they end up fitting much better in the long run when they seem slightly oversized to begin with. They seem to shrink a little as they mould and shape to you - so (for me) if they fit perfectly right away I have found they tend to feel a little too restrictive later down the line.

I have the red chore jacket, and thought I had really messed up with the sizing as it just seemed too big at first. But now, after some wear, it fits really well......so it can be tricky to get right!

@chadstone30 yeah, this is my problem with Ship John too - I really love what make, but the way they do the product launches make it pretty much impossible to ever buy anything

A moog model D..........dont need one and definitely shouldn't get one - but why let that spoil the fun

Mine has just arrived! I am absolutely loving it (more so than I anticipated actually) the Kakishibu is so, so nice - I really love this colour even before it darkens

I would love a type III jacket in the same, black duck canvas, as the recent 'IH-742-BLK double front duck shorts' as mine are already fading/ageing really nicely..........(or maybe even a sherpa lined duck type III.........?)..........
