IHM-37-GRN - Oiled Whipcord N1 Deck Jacket - Army Green
-
Just got this in today - perfect timing to test out in this 17 degree weather. I held off on getting an N1 the past few seasons because I felt the sleeve length measurements didn't really work out for me, but this year I think it was spot on. Super happy with the fit. Wearing with a henly/flannel layer and no issues. Love this thing, and the color in person is so good. Also,shout outs Ironshop Provisions, you guys rock.
For reference, this is a size S - I'm about 5'7" ~145lbs give or take.

@jaasonmg Great fit indeed, enjoy it!
-
I think I'm going to pull the trigger on this one tonight. I think I could get away with both the Small and Medium but going to go with a Small which I tried on below with a thermal and heavy flannel and I don't I should be needing much more layering underneath it for general UK weather. I'm 5"7 and 162lbs more or less.
-
@m4xime Looks spot on if you ask me.
(I also have my doubts that you're weighing in at 162 kgs!
) -
@JunkPants Haha good catch, just edited it! Took me a while to do the conversion!
-
Well it's arrived and I'm keeping it! Love it, apologies for the crap picture

@SashaDBZ Most of the difficulties you have may be down to technique. I find that since the zipper is two way (zips both up and down) that if the bottom zipper isn't fully seated, then it is hard to zip up. Once you get in the habit of making sure the bottom zipper is fully in the down position, then it get's much easier to zip the jacket.

Hey guys,
Just ordered a size medium of this jacket from Self Edge and beginning to think I should have ordered a size large.
I have a 39" chest but broad shoulders.The modified type 3 I have is a large and fits perfect. It's measurements are:
Shoulder: 18.5
Chest: 22.0
Sleeve 25.7
Waist 20.0
Length: 25.4What do you guys think?

@Chibs my N1 is the same size as my type iii’s so maybe you should have gone with a large? Saying that, a few forum guys do size down an N1 to wear fitted over a t-shirt so you may still be good
just depends what look you are after. -

just depends what look you are after.Okay, so I called 2 self Edge locations. One in NY and one in San Fransisco. Both gentlemen I spoke with pretty much agreed with you and said I goofed ordering medium.
So I emailed and got em to send me their last size large instead! I think that's what they're sending.
Hopefully it fits. So tough buying online and not direct from iron heart. Very excited though!! I didn't want to wait a year for IH to get stock back in. It's -10° C right now and I just want my new N1 life to begin now!! haha -
@Chibs very glad to hear you got it sorted out and congratulations! You will love it, the IH N1’s really are something special..

I just verified I'm getting a large! Maybe they had 2 left?

So I got my size large today. What do you guys think of the fit?
I think I maybe could have actually gone with a medium but then would have had much smaller shoulders and not as much mobility in the arms.I think this looks like the correct size in the shoulders, and a medium could/would have been too small there. I think it looks like you have a little too much room in the sleeve length, though this should ease with wear as creases set in the arms. It also looks like you're just wearing this over a tee, and if you layered a shirt under it too, it may fit 'better' overall.
Oddly enough they left this weird brush in the inside chest pocket.
Not sure if this was intentional (if so, why?) or someone who tried on / returned the jacket left it in there on accident?I am afraid it is not the former, so probably the latter...

Thanks Alex,
I'll try it on with a flannel or sweater underneath and see if it makes a difference. Definitely going to get my next Ironheart piece locally or direct from you guys! This was a "learning experience" but I don't regret it at all.
