So I finally was able to take Silverman's N-1 for a spin. The shell is stiff 17-oz rough canvas. I like it on a coat; it is definitely not a smooth fancy jungle cloth like in FW, IH or Dehen's, but what do you expect for 95 quid. It has a solid, utilitarian, workwear (lol) feel. Storm cuffs are one of the most solid I have seen, faux nylon fur lining will keep you warm in just a shirt underneath down to 5C. One small internal vertical pocket just big enough to fit a minimalist, credit-card sized wallet, pocket closure is a solid-feeling snap. Buttons are solid, the #5 YKK zipper smooth. Overall I am quite happy, great value imo.
