Some photos from the Iron Heart Germany Winter Barbecue which took place on Friday.

Home for Christmas. Obligatory trip to the suburban New Jersey shopping malls.

If anyone has seen @Kasi tell him he left his shorts in Unit 2.

Now that this jacket is out of the closet, it’s a good opportunity to take some more photos.

An hour video call with an IH staff member of your choice.

Is production still suffering from foreigner workers leaving during COVID or is there something else currently going on in Japan?

Good luck with everything!

The house around the corner from my parents. After they won a competition on TV last year, it’s become very popular.

@samo I have no idea if the measurements have changed for the various releases. But I am still happy with my jacket that is one size larger than my shirt size.

Since this jacket is stuffed with insulation, it’s a bit tricky to use the measurements alone to determine which size you need.

Maybe @Giles has experience with both the original and current versions.

Uploading multiple images under iOS gives an error. Uploading them one at a time works fine.

The original N1. Now 14 years old. With @Axel-HH and his N1 from 2 years ago.

@Shane-B Will they have a medium rise like the 634 or higher rise like the 1955?

Great idea for a thread!

I look at the dimensions in the following order of importance since some are much more critical to the fit than others. If the shoulders are off, I will notice right away but I've never given a though to the sleeve opening.

1. Shoulders
2. Sleeve Length and Chest
3. Length
4. Waist and Opening
5. Sleeve opening

Also, shrinkage is not the same in every dimension. For example, if you wash a UHF at 30deg, you will get approximately 1cm shrinkage in the sleeve length and length, but nothing noticeable in the horizontal direction. The can differ depending on the material (denim, chambray, etc) due to the weave direction.
