Glad you joined the 80 club, it’s one heck of a beefy shell isnt it?

Damn that's looking very sharp! I can see use cases for this jacket on formal days when the weather is shite.

Thanks for the approval guys, I fully concur with your reactions. Can’t believe how sharp this one feels and looks. Never expected raingear to give me the feeling of sharply dressed after so many years of wearing shapeless waterproof tarps over myself.

Looking like professional mountain parka of Reinhold Messner.
Cool stuff. -
This is a remarkably understated piece. Unfortunately, the link has been broken on the seasonal collection thread for the IHJ-80-BLK, please forgive the crossed post. For me, the IHJ-80 fills the hole in my wardrobe for a hooded, three-season outer layer that is long enough to cover my IHSH's and UHF's. This completes the look for me. I've missed out on some real gems in the IHJ extinct section, but now I can wear IH with hoods and hand pockets all four seasons! Small victories

Don’t sleep. This jacket is useful.

Agree completely. This jacket holds up so well in the rain and feels great.

Took my summer sale purchase for a spin today. Absolutely wonderful. Waterproof and warm outside. Breathable and relaxed inside. 10/10. I feel like IH Tech Gear doesn’t get the love it deserves. I have 3 pieces now. This, a cordura windbreaker and the primaloft jacket. My primaloft fits perfectly under this and the windbreaker which layers me up for practically anything. I only really need to bust out the goose for serious winter wear, or when I just want one piece to keep me warm. Anyways. Just wanted to show some love for this jacket and IH tech. Enjoy your day!

That looks proper @Fadez - mountain ready! (How’s the leg?)
-
Have to agree…that jacket looks robust man.
Good color on you to boot. -
Thanks [mention]LewisStonehouse [/mention] It’s a proper jacket. This was going to be my original hiking jacket. But it’s just so nice I’m not sure I want to thrash it in the woods. Leg is healing. Almost there.
Throwing this picture above so the thumbnail doesn’t show the leg. [mention]neph93 [/mention] if this is too much gore. Feel free to delete. But here’s what my injury looks like now.
It’s basically all scar tissue at this point. Just waiting for the time where I can semi comfortably wear pants. If I don’t wrap it or but a bandage on it. Jeans are just not in the picture. It’s too abrasive on such tender skin. The target date for that by the docs is in 1-2 weeks. So I’m just holding out for a bit more. Also it’s just on that right spot to be touching any fabric so it was a tough place for a wound to heal. At any rate. It was a giant mess prior to this and I’m just glad it’s at a manageable place for pain and mobility. -
Damn!!! Those Zombie bites are intense!!
JK man–--glad to hear you are on the mend.
-
Haha yeah. I called it My Zombie Leg for a while. After the infection swelled up I had a bunch of necrosis (dead tissue) around it. And when the infection was at its highest point I had to walk with a cane. It hurt a lot. Now it it’s barely anything compared to that. 2021 was a tough year in health for me. But I’m still here and kicking it. Once this is back up to speed. I’m going to celebrate my health by hiking so much!

Ah man you’ve been through the ringer. May the wind be at your back going forward dude
