IHSB-C3J - Simmons Bilt/Iron Heart C3 Jacket

[zatenm]

Thanks @Disheveled @rocket @neph93 ! My intention is to make it my winter daily beater and finally give my 5 year old N-1 a well-deserved break..

@tmg  @Streetwise Hercules I say don't hesitate… as long as you live somewhere cold enough!
That's a lot of jacket/warmth for money, super comfy and functional and very impressive in the flesh.. a very happy customer right there

I live about 30 miles north west of London and was wondering how much of the year I could likely use it.
Any ideas?

@Giles:

Unfortunate for @meckintosh and embarrassingly for me, the beaut of a jacket above does not fit him.

I'm going to get a new one made for him.

Anyone interested in the one that does not fit?

Approx 1 size too large for me.

We'll publish sizing when we get it back…

@Giles was this snapped up?

We still have it here.  USD750 - Payment plan can be discussed

November to March maybe…

[Streetwise Hercules]

Thanks chaps.

@Giles you're dangerous. What you need is me after a few beers, but I'm staying dry until Archie comes home at least.

When I drop my 666s down for you to darn, it'd be rude not to try it on though; It's almost exactly as I'd want mine and I'm a size up from you usually.
I can't commit more than that right now, but if a few more stars align it's a long overdue present to myself.

[Giles]

My fingers are crossed for you, your boy and your family Max…...

[Streetwise Hercules]

Thank you Giles.

@Giles

Any sexy fit pics of you wearing this? Blessing and a curse with me being 'your' size!

[Giles]

Of the one that @Streetwise Hercules is after or mine?

The outlet one I was thinking.  This is more for fit/spec (not to snipe @Streetwise Hercules dream jacket), so maybe a couple of your personal jacket - when you get a chance…

[Streetwise Hercules]

Ha ha! 
I've no claim on that jacket.
If anybody wants to get in there, don't miss out on my account.

@Streetwise Hercules From my experience in London, I’d say 3 months at least: Dec-Jan-Feb.
You can rock it with a light T-shirt /office shirt if the winter happens to be mild.
I can see myself wearing it from 5 degrees C and below but the next couple of weeks should confirm that for me..

I’m now in Toronto which is colder for longer but in retrospect I would have bought the jacket if I were still in London. Definitely wearable in the city for me. Hopes this helps..

Thanks mate.
I work in films so spend a fair amount of time outside on set. Some days I'll be running around the place, other times stood pretty still for bloody hours. Obviously in winter that can be grim.
Snuggling up inside it in just a T-shirt is definitely part of the plan.

@zatenm That jacket is sick,looks phenomenal on you. Can’t wait to see it in a few years.

[zatenm]

Thanks indeed! @Jett129
Next time I'm in NJ, I'll let you know ahead of time and try to meet up.. If it's cold enough, you might see wearing it 

[Jett129]

That would be great.

[Giles]

Here is the "Outlet" one….

[Streetwise Hercules]

Yep. That's a lovely, lovely thing.

You lost a little weight, Giles?

[Giles]

Don't think so…..

@Giles

Thanks G.  Looks like a nice comfortable fit.
