@jbjones85 No but I figure eventually you need to wash it in some capacity.

RE: IHM-37-ODG - Oiled Whipcord N1 Deck Jacket - Olive Drab Green
Can anyone advise me on possible shrinkage after first wash? Picked up this Jacket in Size S (black version) and it's a little tighter than I'd like ideally. Will it shrink at all after a first wash?
Thanks -
RE: IHM-37-BLK - Oiled Whipcord N1 Deck Jacket - Black
Just bit the bullet on a Size S down here in Oz. Fingers crossed it's the right fit as they have no Mediums left. No option to try on within the state I live in. Blueworks (shop here in Australia) went to the effort of shooting a short video of one of their staff in the jacket to help me determine sizing.
It's by far the most I have ever spent, or even dreamed of spending on a jacket! if it fits right it will be the winter staple. -

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

RE: Iron Heart Products - What do you think we should make?
As someone obsessed with trying to stay warm in winter, and needing jackets that are rugged, solid etc I would LOVE to see something like the N1 jacket with a hood.
Once it’s cold outside I find a hood and proper collar (not too tight, useable etc) essential to keeping warm.
I have a carhartt jacket that almost achieves this but no collar and the sherpa lining is only synthetic.
And a swanndri that is wool but not thick enough for genuine cold. -
RE: IHW-18-BLK - Wool Bush Jacket - Black
Just got mine in Blue/Black. I was expecting a heavy weight jacket given the price. Lighter than I’d hoped but still a very well made piece.
