We will likely have some version of Iron Heart's N1 for as long as our doors are open. This year, we've opted to take on the oiled version of a jacket that has never been bad to our customers. The lucky people who have been able to touch and feel this piece are as blown away as we are. We've always, always been major fans of whipcord. It's a micro-cord built for the military that is tough as nails. The cord is so micro that you really can't see it until you get up close. The texture is simply unreal. And that 80% Wool, 20% Alpaca lining was majestic (it lines the pockets as well). It is so warm, and so soft that it'll change your world. People love the UHF from Iron Heart, but this is probably their most impressive, most substantial, and most useful piece in production. We're simply blown away and love this black version beyond words. If you've always thought, I need that jacket but waxed or oiled, well now this baby can be yours. Per usual, these have mostly sold out on the IH website before we can even get them online! Don't sleep if you want one.

Fit Notes: Shop owner Tommy is wearing a size Large in the pictures. He normally takes a medium in this but decided to test out the Large this round. You can see it's a bit big in the arms but isn't a bad fit overall. He could ultimately wear either size, but would likely opt for the Large for the long haul. Tommy is 5'10," 170lbs with a 40" chest.
