Jackets in this video:
- Woolrich Hunting Jacket (from the 40's, there are some amazing guides online)
- Filson Double Mackinaw Cruiser
- Duckworth Snowcrest Shirt Jacket
- WeatherWool Al's Anorak
- The Iron Snail Mammoth Jacket
What's the difference between Filson and WeatherWool? Who makes the best wool jacket? How does Duckworth stack up against WeatherWool? Is merino wool any good? Is merino wool strong? How can you possible soften scratchy itchy wool? What's the best wool jacket?! MERINO!? Okay...that's enough outta me. I get started and I can't stop. Merino wool.
Bye.
Can I interest you in a hot bowl of following ME and The Snail in other places??

The Iron Snail is a men’s fashion vlog starring a young man named Michael and featuring a snail no bigger than a quarter. The two are set on taking over the world of fashion by creating a clothing line to end all clothing lines. Until then, we’re here to tell you EVERYTHING you need to know about the best clothing out there, from the highest quality raw denim jeans to the warmest jackets to the sturdiest boots…the Iron Snail has got you covered. (written by Taylor, though Michael is sometimes known to talk about himself in the third person… xoxo) - Навчання та стиль
*EDIT!!!! Thank you to a few eagle eyed size aficionados -- I made a typo on the size chart on the site. UPDATED NOW!!*
Hello everyone! Just want to emphasize -- these are all amazing jackets, I really don't think you could go wrong either way. That being said...if you want to check out the Mammoth...you can go to theironsnail.us !
What size mammoth are you wearing in this video? Looks incredible!
thanks! Size Small! @@BradyKenniston
Will there be another drop for the Mammoth? Pre-order seemed to sell out quickly.
@@Noremac5223my exact question. I’m sad it’s gone. Hoping you to order it soon
Wow, you really hit it out of the park with the Mammoth. It looks absolutely gorgeous, perfectly cut, great design choices, and looks to be extremely functional and top quality. Congratulation and best of luck, and thanks for the belly laugh when you introduced it so humbly in the vid.
Bahaha thank you!
@@TheIronSnail Are you looking into making additional colors in the future? (Like you did with your denim jacket?)
If so... I'd vote for something like that beautiful green from the Filson. The Mammoth in that green would be an instant purchase from me!
Awesome job with the Mammoth!
did you not watch the entire video?@@JayPoncedeLeon
I’ve never been more excited for a jacket I’ve been waiting ever since it was announced. It’s so refreshing to see someone actually care about clothing again. Unless it’s like a novelty hoodie or shirt from a place I’m visiting I done even buy new clothing anymore it’s almost strictly vintage or second hand because I know it’s gonna fall apart on me I don’t even need something this over built I’m just happy it exists and I wanna be a part of this thing you’re doing
@TheIronSnail Awesome jacket! I noticed the Mammoth sold out - I'm not surprised (also congrats!). I hope there will be more soon and perhaps a solid black or charcoal (I know, I'm boring). The fact that you list all of the relevant measurements is so rare and refreshing. The selling point for me is the wool interior. So many overcoats say 100% wool then have plastic on the inside. Some of my vintage wool garments look fantastic on the outside but the plastic fibers on the inside are oxidized and breaking. It's awesome that you made something thoroughly great!
Very impressive. Gorgeous, smartly put together.
the tale of the iron snail grows!
love seeing your growth
Congrats! It’s a beautiful jacket. Amazing video as always too.
Beautiful jacket! I'll be honest, I was rather on-the-fence when you first announced you'd be making a jacket - but you've really knocked my expectations out of the park.
Fantastic job implementing all of your knowledge into one complete garment x
Your wool jacket is amazing! I won’t be able to get the first release but it’s definitely worth every penny. Incredible wool construction and materials overall. I had the opportunity to visit Tagua artisans in Ecuador and talk to some of them so I know those buttons are as premium as they get. Thank you for taking the time to create such amazing garments. I look forward to seeing your brand grow and flourish.
Man I would love to get one for myself but sadly I haven't got much use for it now that I moved back to Mexico. I'll stay tuned for whatever clothes more suited for warmer weather you release bc this is probably the best value for money piece of clothing i've ever seen.
Truly your magnum opus, Mr. Snail. Keep the good work up and Merry Christmas.
I am so happy for you Michael! Keep at it boi!❤
Michael, the Mammoth jacket looks amazing! Incredible function and looks all in one. I can't believe it can make a person fly, that's awesome! I actually lol'ed at that. I would love to have one, but I live in Florida and would never have to wear it. If I was up north I would buy one in a second! BTW, your video's are always informative and entertaining, I've been watching for a while now, thanks!
Heck yes! Finally a beefy good looking wool coat with a lining and storm cuffs. For the price this is easy the highest value jacket on the Market. Congrats on crushing it Michael. Love your content.
The mammoth is an absolute beast of a jacket and i love it. Im a poor cook , whos obsessed with wool. Been following your journey for a while and cant wait to see what the future has in store !
So cool to feel Michael's excitement and passion in the video.
Hooy cow! Good video! I loved you styling the jackets
I’m holding out for the special edition! Love the attention to detail!
Well done. The coat looks amazing.
The Mammoth looks amazing! Can’t wait to see that special edition when it’s ready.
Im buying the Mammoth as soon as you re-release. Great video, good humor and plenty of organized information. I hope you’ll be able to add new colorways soon!
this jacket literally has every single thing I can ask for. the fabric pattern also looks amazing and the amount of energy and thought you put into this is absolutely crazy. thank you for the iron snail!
There's 5 though???
Happy with my current wool jackets but boy is it so tempting to preorder! I'm much more intrigued by wool over denim and maybe down the line I hope the Mammoth stays in stock continuously!
This is epic mammoth! Love this design and colorway. Well done Michael. $550 is definitely a great price pound for pound.
That is my favorite jacket…so great. You deserve the moon!!! Thanks for all of this content.
For what it's worth, I like the style of the mammoth the most out of all the jackets you demonstrated today. Classy!
Hi, the Mammoth looks very good, like the color and functions included !!!
I love the mammoth colour and pattern, very cool.
9:53.. magical moment. Bummed the Mammoth is sold out! It's a beautiful beast. Well done Michael, I hope to purchase one! Cheers, Merry Christmas!
Glad to see the WeatherWool included in the list, the Mammoth looks great best of luck Mike.
😂😂😂 this is the funniest most tastefully put together fashion channel
Was traveling for the holidays and missed the drop! Need a restock!!
I have owned single,double and whipcord filson Mackinaw jackets, vintage Woolrich and a lot of small random vintage brands wool jackets and my favorite is Vintage LL Bean wool from the 70s-80s. Insane value.
Congrats sir, looks amazing. Glad America has you
Sick VFX shots! MAMMOTH
This has been one of the coolest craziest things to watch grow over time. I don’t know you at all. I don’t comment on UA-cam videos. But I just want to say you should be so proud!
THANK YOU!
Congrats on selling out, the piece looks phenomenal! Any plans on doing another run of The Mammoth?
always great to see more made in usa options! and it looks great too. im waiting on a weatherwool lynx shirtjac currently. maybe a mammoth would make a good 2nd choice for when the lynx may be the wrong color for an event.
wow.. sold out while I was in the cart.. congratulations from Switzerland!! will shoot for the S.E. now
I'm a huge wool fan. I have a closet full of Filson and Woolrich and it's rare that I wear anything other than wool. When you mentioned you were going to announce your jacket along with the others as one of the greatests jackets, I felt like it was a shameless marketing stunt. After seeing all the details of the Mammoth though, I'm really impressed. And your launch into space made me completely lose it. So I'm good with the marketing stunt and happy I saw it. I'm going to buy a Mammoth as soon as they're available. As a large guy, I hope the 2xl fits. Most excited to see how this handles northern Michigan winter camping.
Also interesting to note that what you're doing seems to align with how I layer. On top of my base layers, I like to layer a worsted long sleeve shirt, a wool sweater and finally the wool jacket. All the different kinds of knit patterns really help deal with wind while still remaining breathable. While not a huge deal in the woods, the beaches in the winter out here get really crazy wind.
Literally added one to my basket and by the time I wrote the size in the requirement section they sold out, over site on your part that it couldn’t be held atleast until the size was added
Jacket looks amazing man, congrats!
Jacket looks amazing! Love the clip addition and pocket layout. Know its not the style but if it had a zip in nylon or attachable hood for extra id be all over it.
Yep, gonna need that special edition.
I am so excited about this, dang.
Yup gonna need another run of the Mammoth! XXL please! Maybe a longer pre order window as well!!
Looks amazing! Any chance there will be a duffel/long coat build the same way? Would love to have a longer version!
Ok yeah you had the Norman Bates look going on I see what your saying. Lol - seriously, love your content. Thanks for all the research and detail in your reviews and the editing and production 👍🏻
My job cut my hours just in time for the holidays. I'd be on this thing so fast if not for that. All the best from the boring part of NY and happy holidays, Michael!
Good video - and the Mammoth looks great. 👌🏻
As an alternative to the Duckworth, I’d take a look at McNair Mountain Shirts. I’m very pleased with mine, and it works great in the Norwegian winters. And I got it made-to-measure for £375 - handmade in the UK! (Sometimes I layer a Filson wool vest underneath.)
I got McNair's heavyweight mountain shirt in May (2023) and LOVE IT! I'm very curious how McNair compares to the pieces featured in this video....especially WeatherWool.
How does it stand up to the winters in Norway? I live in Innlandet, and here it can become quite cold🥶 I wanted to buy the Mammoth, but it wouldn't ship to my location. Right now I'm looking at vintage Filson mackinaws on Ebay, but the McNair could be an option if I can use it as an outer layer in the winter. What do you think?
@@Sondre_Friis_Nyberg I live in Oslo, which is less cold (though -20 now!) - and it’s worked great! Obviously better with layering, so size accordingly. My only gripe, is the lack of hand-warming pockets. Maybe ask if they can make some..? 🙃 I usually wear a Northern Playground T-shirt closest to my body, then a shirt or sweater (wool if really cold) and then the McNair. And it’s never been too cold.
The Mammoth was even more impressive than i expected. Very cool
Damn that jacket looks pretty good actually. I live in northern NSW so it never will get cold enough to justify a double layered wool jacket but if I was still living in BC I would buy. Good stuff mate.
That's a mighty fine looking jacket!
Greetings. Im watching You from Poland. Great video's. Much knowledge. 💪🇵🇱
I need a bigger wallet. Nice over view my man! Nice work on your mammoth jacket
Great job! Your jacket looks amazing! Does it have hand warmer pockets? Merry Christmas!
This is such a cool channel
Not gonna be able to pick up this release, hopefully more to come in the future, sweet looking jacket.
that coat looks dope man. always impressed with what you put out. quality not quantity. ill be taking a look at your jacket on your site. love the color and pattern. i have the weatherwool cpo jacket and it is unbelievably warm with how thin and light it is.
Great video I only ever buy army surplus
The Mammoth jacket makes me wish I wasn’t allergic to wool. Looks great! Well done.
Good think i just spent every penny of my savings on Christmas gifts. Now i gotta return them all and say i was robbed so i can live inside a mammoth. And i immediately thought of the beginning of Star Wars episode... V? When they keep warm inside of that animal they cut open... they didn't even keep the hide. What where they doing?
I just had a real shitty month an had to drop an unexpected 3k on my car after an unexpected accident. I’m bummed I can’t snag a Mammoth, but just wanted to let you know I really appreciate your content man. Fingers crossed I can snag one in the very near future.
congrats on the mammoth! Looks like a greta jacket. Wish the shoulder sizing was bigger on the larger sizes
Oh man, I’m so torn now. The Mammoth does offer a lot of value in it at that price, but now I feel like I should wait for the special edition one… super stoked for you either way and can’t wait to pick one up!!
I’m gonna follow your advice in the video and just exchange it if I need to. The allure of Scottish wool seems too good to pass up
Wish I lived somewhwere cold enough for this. Looks nice.
living in scotland myself, im really looking forward to the special edition mammoth!
Mammoth loos great!!! Congratulations!
What a bad time to be broke.😤 Great looking jacket, would love to get one, one day.😂
Is this a one time drop? I love it but unfortunately won’t be able to get one this winter. Also would you ever consider dropping it in XS? I’m a short guy (5’4”) and would love to have it fit the way I want. Congrats you knocked it out of the park.
Have you messed with the Silent Predator at all? It’s 22oz 90%wool 10% cotton made by Pendleton. You can also get it 4oz wool fiberfill insulation. It’s got a great price. Autumn Woods outfitter, Asbell, and Big Bill are also other affordable that are intriguing. A Weatherwool double Maine coat is absolutely my dream cold weather hunting coat.
Oh no I haven't -- never heard of that! I'll have to look into both of those
Thanks for the heads up! I've seen and worn that coat (I think) it's absolutely amazing!
Love it! Wish it came in XS though.
Darn it...for what it's worth I'm an XS in Filson and a S in Mammoth!
I dont know you personally, but im proud
I love your videos🤩. May I ask what kind of shoes you wear? I need some for my trip to Canada. Merry Christmas and greetings from Germany.❤
Hey man great video. What brass key clip is that? Looks really cool.
Hey Michael, I have a Woolrich Mac Jacket and similar LL Bean jacket that I could send to you if you wanted to do a video on them. I actually almost bought that same Woolrich Mac with the patch, and I hope it eventually shows up for you!
Also have a surplus M65 field jacket if that’s something you’d like to check out…
I'm looking forward to you making a shirt-jacket with decent pockets.
It's not cold enough where i live to wear your heavy jacket.
I live in a high elevation rain forest in Hawaii, so I wear wool most of the time.
If you made a shirt jacket I'd be saving up for it right now.
So I didn't catch the pre-order. When will they be available next? And will the price be the same?
I love that based on your experience you made the best wool jacket at the best possible price. If the jacket works as you describe it you might be onto something there, congrats! Do you ship the jacket outside of the US? I want one but I’m in spain now.
Thank you!! We ship anywhere!
Please, I must know what white sweater you were wearing I beg of you!?
Love the content, please keep it up :)
Hi Michael! Any tips on how to take the measurements, specifically the sleeve? Does thickness of material matter? (like - should we measure a similar-weight jacket) - looks like I'll be between an XL and a L, I sent an email with some more detailed questions. (p.s. - jacket looks amazing!)
The Mammoth looks truly incredible, and this is coming from someone who owns both a Filson Packer Coat and a WeatherWool coat. You can tell that the Mammoth was designed by a true enthusiast because every little detail that only an obsessive enthusiast would think of is covered. And for $550?! I really thought it was going to be more. Cannot wait to own both versions!
P.S. - can you ID the sweaters you were wearing?
On that note, how do you like the filson packer?
After weatherwool ran out of black peacoats and lynx AJJs this winter, I've been eyeballing filson packers and they just resupplied
@@ElDinosaurioGigante If you can get past the price, it's the flagship Filson coat for a reason. The stitching is impeccable, it's unsurprisingly very warm (especially with the collar turned up), and it has some cool history to it. That said, this year seems to be the last year that it will be made in Seattle so some of that history is disappearing, and it can look very costume-y (think Red Dead Redemption cosplay) IMO in the louder plaids. The 2022 model with the darker shearling and the charcoal chalk stripe wool is what I have and I really enjoy it. Last year Filson marked them down to like 30% off, at that price I think it's far more reasonable.
Hey I might have an ID on the sweaters! Both j crew and LL bean make versions of the roll neck waffle-y one (I want to say his was the LL Bean version) and I think the cream colored one is the 'heritage cotton crewneck' sweater from j crew. Could be wrong but I think I'm at least pretty close!
@@cameronwuethrich3560 those were exactly my guesses too!
HOLY IVE BEEN WAITING FOR MONTHS ON THIS VIDEO LETS GOOOOOO
Hugh Jackman jr. wolverines hairdo. Cool! Good contents. Keep it up!👍
Cool slowmos 🤙🏻
Your website repeatedly rejected my shipping address… I was not able to complete checkout and had to watch them sell out 😭
Also happened to me but I switched to PayPal and it went through.
I tried, but they were already sold out 😤
Had an issue saying it wouldnt deliver to my address but was lucky enough to be able to snag one anyway🔥
SIZING!! you forgot to talk about it!!! you need to avoid endless returns after purchase! you have a youtube channel to specifically discuss that aspect of it!!
honestly...you are so right...TRUE TO SIZE! +1 from your Filson size!
@@TheIronSnail No worries brother, good looks on the jacket and good luck with all the sales. you made it just like i hoped you would, classic Mackinaw style.
Love the Mammoth, how does it stack up against Canadian winters?
Hi Michael. Of topic, but what brand and model is your bagpack?
This thing really IS beefy. And the lining feels phenomenal. Kinda hope the last cold snap isn't done 😂
Can't believe you cut the pockets, though! (Just kidding, I don't enjoy cutting my pockets so it's a plus for me) 😂
I genuinely almost ordered that exact jacket that got lost in the mail
I am so beyond excited for this jacket. Even the taxes and duties getting it to Germany are worth it to me.
Regarding fit: Despite using the measurements I am still a bit unsure.The Prologue Denim jacket should be about the same sizing as a Naked and Famous Denim Jacket (That's the only one I can really compare to). Are you a size S in that as well?
I literally just got the Stapleton single mack from Filson. Not 2 weeks later you drop this...Dammit. I want it, but you now also mention a special edition one! Here's what I'll do. I'm going to wait and use my filson why I do (it's cold). When the special edition drops I'm going to buy it immediately, and then Ebay my filson. I also have a hooded sweatshirt from Weatherwool, if this special edition fills both rolls I'll just get rid of the weatherwool and filson, which will more than cover the cost of the special mammoth (I hope).
I will own that jacket. I got my bell notification on, and I WILL NOT miss the special edition pre-order. What a design! Any idea on WHEN the special will drop?
Also THANK YOU for adding sizes for larger people! Your denim jackets never went to my size and these do! I'm and XL in the mammoth sizing and you even have a size larger!
Amazing jacket, too bad I missed out on it while converting inches to cm lol
Next time I'll try to do this earlier. I'm honestly very glad that it got sold out so quick. This means I have to look forward for future runs and maybe even some changes! I saw someone asking for longer variants and that could be interesting.
Kinda bummed I didn't snag one but yeah, maybe the future versions will have revisions and alterations to make these more enticing for me! A long version would be awesome!
please make more jackets if possible.... both wool and denim. PLEASE
Any chance of more colorways? I love the concept but want black. Thanks!
I’ve been looking at wool coats for a few weeks now and was about to pull the trigger on a Filson wool work coat until I saw the mammoth, do you ship to the uk?
I would def pick up a mammoth if it came in my size but understand that its hard to keep a wider range of sizes for startups. Good luck with it dude.
Oh no! Do you mind if I ask your size? Just so I can open up the range more
@@TheIronSnail I'm a pretty big dude, 6 foot 3 with a 60 inch chest, so usually a 4/5X
I have no idea if this is feasible, but maybe instead of carrying an inventory of bigger sizes, you and your manufacturer could do custom jobs for those who fall out of the norm for a higher price or something. Anyway, enjoy the content all the same, keep up the good work.
It would be interesting to see you review the LifeLabs MegaWarm jacket. It claims to be the world's warmest jacket.
What jacket were you wearing in the beginning? Looks like a J97 Detroit jacket but just slightly different
