Anyone else excited about this release?

@Graham Nice! Thank you

Hey guys, any ideas on a restock on this in 2025?

@ZackB I tried so hard to resist, but it was futile. I gave in and went with my normal IH size in M. I'm happy with my past self for giving in now though; the more I see the jacket, the more I like it.

The black is also still on the cards for me, I love work jackets and wear them a lot and the two I currently have are a little snug. I'll look for new homes for them to try and justify new jackets to my wife (she's almost given up, but she's not quite there yet). The action back on this really appeals to me, I had this on a Freenote jacket and it made a huge difference to the mobility.

How is the mobility for you in this, does the action back make a big difference? I've stacked this jacket so I don't yet have it.

On such a short jacket, and the fact that the zipper doesn't go to the bottom of the jacket, I would say a two way zipper isn't really required. My IHJ-61 had a two way zipper and I never used it; that jacket was also about 2-3cm longer than this. I also think the one way zipper on a work jacket like this is more classic (if that matters to anyone else )

Price drop to 300 EUR. Pains to see this go but I'd be happy to see it go to someone it fits

@Alex thanks for the clarification, super helpful!

@Alex yeah I appreciate that‘s the intention, but I know there will be variation in the sizing between Jackets in the same batch to a degree.

When I compare to the IHJ-143, this one seems smaller, but is that really the case or just a product of the samples you picked from the batch. No need to get into stats but just a general feeling, since this is the same patern, it should be the same fit taking into account the natural sizing variation within each size.

To the point: if you pick a random jacket from this batch in your size and put it on, does it feel smaller than you expected or about the same as the IHJ-143 you put on? Granted that was probably some days ago and hard to say for sure.

I am debatong whether a large is a better fit here since from the measurements, it‘s more comparable to the M in the IHJ-143.

Thanks!

Sizing is the same as the IHJ-143-IND I presume? Looks about the same so this is probably a pointless question, but just checking.

I took some pictures of this so you can see the fades.

Hello!

I got a little buffer at the end of last year, decided it was time to get into better shape and now these jackets are a little tight on me.

I have the following available:
IHJ-61 size M - SOLD
IHJ-124-BLk size M
Full Count x Paul Smith Collab type i/ii size M

IHJ-61 - 300€ - SOLD

P2P - 54cm
Shoulder - 45cm
Length- 63cm
Sleeve - 63cm

I‘m weak. This one has the zip on the pocket too, I mean it‘s basically a completely different Jacket.

I am trying so hard to resist this and wait for the black one. Trying so hard. I had hoped the M‘s would sell out and that would be that, but no, of course that‘s not the case.

It's really cool, I like that you can't actually nail the colour down. I am a huge fan of corduroy collars. I'm going to need to get ready when you release this so I don't miss it!

@AdamJ

Thanks for the reality check!

Guys, let's be real for a moment. Have you seen the Sashiko Weekender jacket Dehen just released? How is one to resist? Can someone talk me out of this?

@Alex Can't wait!

@Alex The IHJ-61 is my most beloved jacket, I literally cannot wait each year for it to be the appropriate temp to wear it. I have it in navy and it still looks like the day I got it!

I'm thinking along these lines but a little roomier and with a blanket lining. Yes, I love blanket lining!
