Goel this is a brilliant suggestion. I had not considered these guys at all but looking into their website they offer brilliant options and they have hand warmers which is very important to me. They have well and truly jumped into contention in my mind. Thanks for the suggestion.
I like this suggestion. Especially their Irvin model with hand warmers in curly shearling. Half the price too. I will be honest I hadn't considered 5* much until you mentioned. Has your experience with them been good?
Interestingly I emailed them about the thickness of the fleece and they stated that the fleece is 1 inch thick (these numbers not being listed on their website). So I assume they really are talking about the thickness of the skin only when they mention the 7mm number?
Agree. Nothing would be worse than tearing soon after purchase. I still like the jacket however based on multiple opinions all saying similar, I might continue the search and go back to looking into alternative options.
Always nice to hear advice from someone who has made similar mistakes prior! Thanks for emphasising those little points. I incorrectly assumed that they were using lambskin interchangeably with proper shearling however I see now why this is likely not the case. Thanks for taking the time to have...
Fair points. I like the fit of what looks to be a ? D1 jacket in dark seal that I can seen on your Instagram. Perhaps I will go down this route instead.
Haha yes totally agree, I feel their marketing pictures may have strayed quite far from the realms of practical use. Fortunately I wouldn't be looking to use it as a bike jacket, rather a pure freezing winter jacket as you suggested :)
Hi All,
I was wondering if anyone has any personal experience with the shearling jackets produced by Iron and Resin?
I am looking for my first shearling jacket and after a long journey have decided that I love the look of the B3 style "Irvin" model produced by Iron and Resin...
