FOUR JACKETS. It’s a super duper review comparison of my two favorite winter jackets: Freenote Cloth’s RJ2, the only legit denim jacket for winter, and Iron Heart’s N1, the best deck jacket in the world. These are both very significant and very cool jackets that are thoughtfully made, historically informed, will last forever, and will get better with age — that’s one reason why I got them second hand. While I have a fair few jackets and coats to get me through New York City winters these days, I find that I always reach for one of these two pieces, so let’s compare them. 00:00 the best casual winter jackets 01:40 the best denim jacket for winter 03:32 Freenote RJ2 review 08:05 Why deck jackets are the best winter jacket 09:27 Freenote Mariner vs RJ2 10:23 Iron Heart’s N1 deck jacket sizing 11:35 Iron Heart’s B2 jacket 12:38 Why Iron Heart makes the best deck jacket 15:09 Iron Heart vs Freenote jackets 16:00 WINNER: THE BEST WINTER JACKET IS Written review of the RJ2 https://stridewise.com/freenote-rj2-winter-denim-jacket-review/
