@Turbulence agree re Manchester on Saturday. I was at the football and wore my olive oiled N1 for the first time this season. Perfect.
Enjoy the winter! -
@IrishHeart Giving away your allegiances - I'm on the blue side
-
@Turbulence - and I’m on the orange (aka the losing) side!
Just happy to be in the conversation… -
@Turbulence yes, I’m a red, but let’s not get into a conversation about football at the minute. I just wish I’d discovered Iron Heart 10 years ago when United were any good!
-
@Nocturama I’ve joined you on the losing side this last few years!
-
I saw someone else ask about this and no one responded so I'll try. Just seeing if someone can ease my mind about this.
My jacket is brand new, never been worn. It looks as though the nap is already worn down and it has creases in it. There are white spots that show up all over the collar. Its very noticeable and (to me) makes it look really cheap. Just wondering if there are reasons for this or what? I know all hides aren't perfect but this doesn't look like a hide issue.
-
Have to admit I’d be a bit disappointed by that given what it has cost you. Hoping when I get my order in for the khaki that it’ll be perfect.

I don’t own one of these, but that would bother me, too. I can’t speak to the severity of the defect, or if it’s even a defect at all - I’m sure it all functions well. Knowing myself, though, those spots would be the first place I would look every single time I put the jacket on. Would drive me mad….
-
Mine doesn’t look like that at all.
-
@Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot it's the first and nearly the only thing I look at.
-
@Brandrea that's what worries me about it.
-
@HalfPastNever there is always the no quibble return policy, if it bothers you that much. No point in being unhappy with it….
-
@Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot I bought it at a stockist retailer
-
@HalfPastNever if you still have tags on it and it’s within 30 days of purchase then any decent retailer should offer a refund or exchange.
I own the jacket in olive and love it, but my collar is perfect. Just looks like this one slipped through QC.
I don’t know if the IH team can offer any further guidance?

I was the one that asked about it originally...if you look at the pictures of the jacket on BOTH Rivet & Hide and Withered Fig, you can see very similar imperfections/defects as you have posted along the edge of the collar, so clearly more than just one jacket slipped through QC.
Giles replied to my original post and said that it was a camera artifact so I went ahead and ordered from Self Edge...I feel very fortunate that the collar on my oiled black N1 is perfect, but I am saddened to see some of the other jackets resemble the one from the original stockist's images.
I also own two other Iron Heart N1s and they also have perfect collars...

@HalfPastNever Sorry that you have received a product you're unhappy with, il be in touch via email for more information and to discuss this further with you
-
@HalfPastNever hope it works out for you--never a nice feeling when you invest that much in a garment and aren't thrilled.

Hi can anyone on comment on the difference in feel between the oiled and non oiled N-1?
Not had a lot of experience with waxed/oiled jackets except that I’ve tended not to enjoy the feeling of them - as in the oil coming off on your fingers. Maybe this is more a problem at the cheaper end only?
I’ve been pining for an N-1
For years, hard to find one here in Australia and hard to bite the bullet on a purchase without testing.Thanks
