That's a perfect fit for you!

Do you mind sharing your weight and height along with the size you went with?

To those who have had this jacket from previous seasons:

Did you find the whipcord fabric tends to "relax" a little and drapes a little better over time?

Love the jacket and find the medium to be a great fit but I am wondering if it will lose a little of its stiffness as it currently sits on me as if it were suspended on my body!

Wow...That was quick. M and L gone! Got my order in just in time.
Strange that Selfedge shows new stock on this but with a brown alpaca lining!?

@nwills yes at 1600BST

Awesome! Thanks

Will this jacket be available for order today?

Sweet! I am looking for a black in size large or medium. Not sure of my size in that jacket so was thinking of ordering both and returning the one that doesn’t fit.

From the sounds of it my best bet is to keep my eyes on the IH UK website and check for an inventory refresh on that particular model?

Thanks to all for the replies…I am so excited about getting this jacket!

Can anyone give me any pointers how one would purchase a IH N1 deck jacket?

I am new to the brand and recently bought a type III denim jacket and now wanted a N1 and can't seem to find one.

I have been looking at all US/Canadian retailers for the past 3 months and it seems like they are absolutely unavailable anywhere.

Any suggestions? Thanks

Thanks! I thought about the soak and wear damp method but my jacket is perfectly fitted to me…any shrinkage would be a problem so I’ll just wear it constantly.

Hi,

I am new to wearing this type of denim and I must admit it is the best I’ve ever owned!

Having said that I just purchased the 21oz type 3 denim jacket and it feels like I’m wearing something made of cardboard. My girlfriend calls it my bullet proof vest.

Can I expect this thing to soften up? Will it be a long process? Sitting in it is difficult since it barely folds. While standing not so much of a problem.

What can I do to help the process…obviously wearing it often seems like one thing but any other pointers?

@T4920 Agreed. It feels snug and I won't be able to layer anything thick underneath but I think that's a trade off I'm willing to take to achieve the desired look. I'm also hoping that it does have some "give" over time as I wear it but that seems uncertain and I have read contradicting posts on the subject.
Otherwise I'll diet and lose some weight lol

@Giles Thanks, appreciate your feedback

@Giles It is the 21oz selvedge denim modified type III Indigo. IH-526PJ

@Giles Thanks!

I was under the impression that a warm to hot water soak would result in some shrinking. If that's not the case then I would choose the smaller size as I agree on the snug fit.

From other posts I have read, some mention that it does have a little "give" in areas of tension..is this a consideration?

Hi everyone. I would appreciate your opinions on a fit check for my new 21oz type III. I am hesitating between 2 sizes. One is a large and the second is a medium.

The large feels a little too big and the medium is very snug. From my reading it seems like the medium will not stretch and give me a little more room? Otherwise I thought of doing a warm water soak on the large and getting a little shrink if that's a thing?

The first two pictures are the large. You can see the difference in the length of the two and where it ends on my waist vs. lower on the large.

Sorry for the face erase but I'm a private person, hope it doesn't come across the wrong way!
