05:01 Charles just wrote me an email to note that the lining is described as wool, alpaca, and cotton - but through an error in translation. The cotton component is the very fine mesh the wool and alpaca is woven through. So there's technically cotton in the lining but the fuzz you're feeling on your skin is pure alpaca and wool, no cotton :D

Love that at 13:00 you were walking around with the deck jacket but the girl in the background was in a tee shirt, made me laugh and your dedication is appreciated. Out of all the deck jackets I’ve seen, my favorite looking one is the Dehen one, it just looks beautiful.

Wow this was a excellent video packed full of great information huge thanks my man

Honestly I wasn't too familiar with deck jackets. Thank you for the thoughtful introduction. Well done, as usual!

You are a very stylish gentleman & we thank-you so much for your amazing creative content.

killer video. would love one of these for Canadian winter.

My Father wore his Deck Jacket for decades that he wore during WWII on a battleship. I’m still wearing mine that he bought for me at a surplus store in the early 70s. They were very popular with both veterans and celebrities during the 60s.

I have the N1 parka from Pike Brothers and I really like it, even warmer than the short standard version! I actually own a few of their products and would love to see you cover more from them! Regards from Sweden :)

Good to see a great video on the N1 jacket. It would also be great to see a review on the MA1 bomber jacket. Especially the Alpha industries..

Amazing video! Very informative

Very nice review Nick!

Great video like the style of jacket . Might look into getting one . I bought huckberry trucker jacket last year and it’s awesome . I’m in Australia 🇦🇺 keep up the good reviews

Cool video! I got a variant from Roark x Danner collab with some chunky waxed canvas. The liner is 100% poly tho so that sucks but it’s still very warm. I have a couple jackets from Amundsen called the Harvester jacket/overshirt that have a similar thing to the deck jacket going. These are made of thick wale cord w/ 100% wool fleece lining. I think you should sell the first Iron Heart and flip that cash into getting the xl. American Trench has a similar one to Dehen made with Cockpit USA that looks pretty cool.

Love it mate! Keep up the good work

I have the Freewheelers N-1 jacket.. I love it to bits, surprised you didn't have this one on ur radar .. cheers Tony.

Wow, yet another reason to add one more jacket 😊 Happy New Year!

The Dehen one is incredible in person. Pricey sure but it really is next level. These are all great.

Love the look of the deck jacket. Had to sell my Buzz Rickson N1 because the collar was too itchy on my neck and it was actually too warm to wear so I could never use it. The RRL bower deck jacket looks dope without the alpaca lining and the non itchy corduroy collar 🤙

I recently got the Universal Works jacket on sale for 175. I was skeptical til I received it. Really well made. No loose stitches, etc. Very warm. It uses polyester fleece and polyester wadding inside for extra warmth. I have other N-1 jackets from well known companies and as far as fit and craftsmanship on par with them. You just aren't getting alpaca or wool for the insulation. For the sale price this is actually really nice. Pictures don't do it justice.

Got the waxed pike brothers version in the dark khaki colour. Very happy with it.

I bought the deck jacket from Pike Brothers this past fall, mainly because I loved the look and it happens to be my last name. I absolutely love it! The jungle cloth is thick and the sleeves are great for me - they have an internal cuff and then wider than normal opening which works great with heavy gloves. I ride my motorcycle often in the winter in the Northeast and it keeps me very warm - I can't say enough great things about it. The only slight negative is that the wool collar is a tad scratchy, but I'm almost always wearing a collared shirt so it doesn't bother me. Highly recommend for half the cost of the others!

Great list. I got one from Cockpit USA, has a poly interior but is pretty lightweight. Exterior is like corduroy. Looks all right, hoped it’d be here so you could rate it! Anyway nice vid, enjoyed it. Love nerding out on specific pieces

When I saw your filson mackinaw I thought 'hmm, I wonder if he ever considered an n1?" Suffice to say, I think I got my answer with this vid. Great analysis!

I love your brown iron heart jacket because it goes awesome with a red plaid shirt and lighter colored jeans awesome review

I have the Iron Heart N-1 and recommend sizing up since it's slim. I normally go with a medium and did here. It fits snug, but is difficult to layer. Looks amazing though.

The 'Lost Worlds' version of an N-1 deck jacket is made of heavy duty, black, horsehide leather. It features an authentic, 'fireman's hook' closure system for the storm flap covering the zipper, a full (body & sleeves) felted wool lining, and a knitted wool collar and storm cuffs. Roomy, wind-proof, warm and water resistant, its durable horsehide exterior makes it tough as nails and probably the most unique version out there of the iconic N-1. Apart from the use of horsehide for the outer shell, it's a highly accurate copy of a circa 1943 N-1 in all other respects. One of my favourite coats that gives real meaning to the N-1's other name: "foul weather jacket".

FOOLS! 1. Dude you keep turning me on to so many new styles and I so appreciate it. 2. Could you clear up what Thursday is doing with their lasts in the captain/possibly vanguard? I keep seeing some really really round toe boxes.

They are nice jackets for moderate temperatures but, last week it was -46 deg. where I live and you need a lot more jacket than that to avoid becoming a frozen dinner for the coyotes. By far the best winter coat I own is the Eddie Bauer B-9 down parka. You should check it out.

Also, love this video. Got the b-2 from iron heart and love mine in black.

Iron and resin have a waxed nautilus jacket that is waxed canvas but looks like a deck jacket. It's amazing. I love mine.

I first got introduced to the concept of the deck jacket from a brand called floyd and co. It’s not the same materials but still seems nice

I love the iron heart one!

This was really helpful, convinced me to size up when ordering from The Real McCoy’s.

Great video! Love my Iron Heart N1 Deck Jacket, I just wish I would of sized up!

Good selection covered. I actually finally pulled the trigger on an N1 Deck Jacket. But went with Tellason's N1 Deck jacket collaboration with Todd Blubaugh the 14oz selvedge denim version. I figured if it rains most likely I'm wearing another jacket with a hood. But riveted buttons did impact the decision. The selvedge denim looking better as it ages. Not a biker but arm length does also usually factor in the decision.

Just got the Iron Heart N1 delivered in XXXL and loving it. I started with a XXL and it was just too tight around the waist and a little snug in the shoulders. The 3XL is perfect. Just for comparison, I'm 6'4" with a 46" chest measurement. The length is spot on as well, which is rare for someone of my height. Unfortunately, it just warmed up here, so no opportunity to wear it. Should cool down soon though.

Bro, that wink got me feeling 🥺

Cloth and Cut based in Europe makes a very good version of the N1 jacket .Its a solid piece

Recently obsessed with this style. I ended up with a wabash version from UES. Synthetic lining but half or less the price of all these mentioned. If anything, perhaps I'll look to "upgrade" to a Dehen in the coming years but this thing is so warm it only comes out on truly cold cold days.

Damn it Nick now I'm obsessing over these jackets

I love this style of jacket. My IG Explore page has now become filled with these older military style jackets. Can we possibly get a series of videos on the Stridewise/your collection of jackets, boots, denim, and everything else (that isn’t too personal)?

That B2 is sweet!

Never heard this before to be honest! I live in Australia, probably not cold enough for it. I like the thought and effort you put into your videos, really shines through. Also around 3:26, is that Steve McQueen? Slipping in a style icon...

We live in the mountains where it gets quite cold (-1 deg F last night). What I have found is the best Winter jacket is the 32 Degrees Heat fleece jacket. They might be available elsewhere, but I get them at Costco for around $18 between August thru October. As far as fleece jackets go it is better than average. I have lots of really nice jackets but most of the time I wear those cheap fleece jackets because they are very warm and you can throw it around and not care if you abuse or lose it.

Great vid. Thanks for the info. Going to get a black Iron Heart 1 and shear some old dark mink for the collar replacement.

My fav is the Iron and Resin Nautilus Jacket. It’s made of Bedford Cord.

Please review the Ironheart M 65!

Nice cameo, Ticho!

Very cool 👍😎

Great review; thanks. IYO what is the better value-iron heart or Dehen?

I don't agree with the Stolen Valor thing on USN deck jackets. These jackets were made in WWII. If he ask the guy wearing it and he served he would be in his 90's. As long as you don't walk around saying that you serve in the military I don't think it is Stolen Valor. Vintage military clothing wouldn't be out in the wild if it wasn't sold at surplus and gotten rid of as unwanted clothing.

I own the Iron Heart and Dehen deck jackets. Dehen hands down.

Hi, Nick! Greetings from Ireland. Thanks for mentioning Pike Brothers as I had (somehow) never heard of them before. Are there any other EU-based retailers you would recommend, please? Perhaps a short video for your European subscribers...? 🙂

I like them all. My Dehen 1920 Divison Road collab jacket arrives on Thursday. So, it's a timely video indeed

The new N1 from IH, the waxed version. Best of both worlds (and still a couple hundred dollars cheaper than Dehen)

Iron Heart one looks the best! Perfect length, whipcord finish looks slick and the spacing between the buttons is just right! Chris Hemsworth wore a beige khaki one in Extraction 2!

A couple years back I found an original WWII N1 deck jacket. I’m a vintage reseller and I bought it intending to resell it, but then I wore it a couple times, because why not? Anyway, two years later, and this thing will live with me until I die. It’s SO warm and comfortable. It’s frequently the only jacket I take with me when I travel in winter

Love Dehen a great alternative they have is the flight jacket for much less

Lmao! I always wondered what kind of jacket I had. I have what is I guess a workman's knockoff. It's made by a brand called "a-range outdoors" it's from the 70s and it's made of a heavy duck canvas shell with a heavy wool blanket liner and a sheepskin semi-shawl collar. It's held up brilliantly moving firewood from the pile to the stump then indoors.

Impeccable timing! I just sold my Iron Heart N1 to pull the trigger on a Dehen N1 yesterday. The IH was great but the fit wasn't perfect on me. I'm hoping the Dehen is as luxurious as it seems. You're right though, there really isn't much content out there on N1 jackets.

Have you ever had the SM Wholesale N1 deck jacket? I bought one and thinks its quite nice for the price and made in the USA

I'd love to see a video on the lined leather gloves seen in this video. Which brands are they?

I have a USN jacket 🥰

Review of sneakers of lether of the frye company please 😊 greetings from Ecuador 🇪🇨

I got mine from The Real McCoy's in Tokyo I love it.

Love my Best Made N-1 w corduroy collar !! Merino wool !!(I think HahahH) Toasty !!!!!

I love that Jake uploaded a video today saying that deck jackets aren’t the best winter jackets 😂

That iron hart looms great on you though i know it is nit how deck jacket should fit but looks cool from modern view

Bought the original olive version at a military surplus store in Manhattan in the late Sixties for $12.00...

Hello! Any Deck jackets have a hood addition? That seems like a necessary feature for the really cold winters.

Biased opinion here, but I love my Freenote Mariner. Because I bought it online, I trust Freenotes sizing over IH's. IH's sizing is a bit all over the place for me in general. Also picked the Mariner up last spring on sale, sold on both the price and the full alpaca lining. The idea of buttons on the IH didn't really appeal to me as it seemed redundant and alot of work to zip and button. Simplicity of design is more to my liking as well. That said, you cant go wrong with any of the 4 you featured..

I really recommend the N-1 FROM Bronson Mfg. They're making them in china but for very good quality and its only 190 bucks

I tried the Pike Bros N1 deck jacket and I didn't like it. I think I would definitely have gone medium or maybe even small but they only had large. It was too short and too wide. Didn't really suit me. Are they all like that? The wool was coase too. The buzz rickson one looks like the same kind of short boxy fit from the website photos. Yours seems to fit you well though. What is Demotex?

Best place to buy one pls ? Online or otherwise. Thank you great channel.

I think you did a good job addressing “stolen valor.” It’s a very tricky issue. Even among people who’ve served, there are a variety of opinions. Anyway, nice work.

I have the dehen 1920 n1, the mouton fur feels softer than cashmere

Personally I love that Iron Heart version. I think all the right upgrades and improvements were made and I like the slimmer, more modern fit. Feels less "LARPy" than a more vintage repro

Silvermans in London UK offer a cheap Deck Jacket for £164, they have website that can easily be found.

Goddamnit now I want a deck jacket 😂

That's why I love your channel, I was not even familiar with these jackets before. I'm definitely getting the whipcord n1. What is your height and weight? I'm 235 and 6'0 feet. I'm considering 2xl. Any suggestions? thanks in advance

What's a good place to buy jungle cloth fabric?

New-ish subscriber here! Will you be doing a review at some point of satchel and pages Montgomery jacket? Would love to hear your take if it's in line with Carl Murawski's.

I prefer a Barbour + arcteryx vest. The longer length keeps me warmer

Triple Aught Design is coming out with one soon!

fantastic video

I want to go with the Dehen and I typically wear Medium in my jackets except for my Rogue Territory Supply jacket. I am 5'11 and around 180 pounds with an athletic build. I plan to wear this with sweaters and flannels. Do you recommend the Medium or Large?

Hey there great video! I am trying to find the Ironheart N-1 but it seems like it is hard to find at the moment. Do you have any suggestions? Also, as for size I typically wear medium in most my jackets except for my Rogue Territory Supply jacket, which I wear in Large. Do you have some size suggestions?

Nice discover jackets .......I am in NYC in marsh where can i find a good workwear store and where to buy thorogood boots and 6 inches insulated timberland without going in WIP carhartt store !!!! I want to buy where blue collars go not in fancy overpriced store in 5 th Avenue per say Thanks mate I appreciate your work and you made me discover lots of brands and things like Karl murasky even if you go overboard in time of price sometimes 😂 But I get that quality is not cheap 😢

Damn it Nick, I don't need another jacket. All joking aside, I know very little about these, so thank you.

I Think The N1 is the Lined Version which is made for Coldest Climate And there is the N2 which Is Unlined and Less Warm Which What I Have Made by RRL that is more Versatile When You Can Layer Beneath

Sell ‘em all and get a Buzz in the right size! I wear mine down to -30s at work (I drive for a living and am in and out of the vehicle all the time). However, I’ll only wear it walking TO work down to -15 or so, after that it’s the puffy down thing for me. *the temps are in celsius, without that goofy ‘feels like’ windchill nonsense

I prefer the hook deck jacket, buzz rickson does a version

Here I am looking for a deck jacket, and stridewise delivers immediately.

Anddddd just bought SOP’s last Ironheart oiled whipcord N1 in stock after watching this video 😂

And the Iron Heart versions are now sold out unless your an XXL

This actually nudges me more in the direction of wanting to get one. I looked at the Dehen ones but shied away because they just looked too military.

The stamping is not stolen valor. Neither is wearing an army field jacket.

For me I think downsizing a fjallraven jacket number 68 is the best . It’s over the top but I freaking love jacket 68 and it by far has the coolest name

Wearing brown with the very dark blue jacket should be fine since the collar is a lighter brown itself. Darker browns will work the best.

Any guys in the US Midwest that can attest to the warmth of these jackets? I’m talking Chicago, Minneapolis where it can get really cold 🥶 (single digits F). 🤔 I do like the jackets. Thanks!
