I had the Iron Heart + Self Edge Collaboration version, but sold it and regretted it. So I replaced it with a brand new original Iron Heart Japanese Horsehide Rider’s version. Just took it out of the box.

Spectacular, Powerband!

Have been eyeballing this myself for some time now. Worried about sizing, though. Shoulder/p2p-Ratio gives me trouble. Can you perhaps say something about sizing compared to your Aero or else? Many thanks.

Hey Tom, thanks for the kind words. Sizing is pretty individual, as you’d imagine. The specs for this aren’t too far off from the Aero D-Pocket I just sold, these being just a half-breath larger. Best to go by the specs listed on the IH product page; I purchased the SMALL and the dimensions are quite consistent with those listed on their website.

When I first put the jacket on right out of the box, right there in front of my wife, all I could say was, “Oh man, this thing is perfect, and it feels like a second skin.”

Again, size is individual, but this jacket has been exceptionally easy to wear. And the hand on this chrome-tanned horsehide has become increasingly soft like warm Play-doh, a result of the grains rapidly developing with every touch and movement. I mean, I love pictures of stiff jackets that stand on their own, but there’s nothing quite like a horsehide jacket that drapes and folds itself over your arms, or falls like a thick, hand-woven blanket in your hand.
