      “Do it for the forum” is the line my wife got sick of very quickly while in Charleston, SC over a long weekend.

      Lots of compliments on the vest. This is a special piece.

        She’s far from the only one. We should start a support group [emoji1]

        She takes great photos though and that vest is glorious.

              I finally gave this a hot soak to get some shrinkage and I've posted some photos of the results. I've been wearing this 2-3 days a week since mid-December. My method was to lay flat in a tub submerged in hot water. I let it stand for about 90 minutes and then hung it to dry outside in the wind for a few hours, and then inside overnight (it took about 24 hours to air dry completely).

              If you have one, cheers and enjoy. If you don't, it's only money, join us!!

                      @neph93 What do you think of the fit? I think an XL would probably fit me better (this is a XXL), but it would lose the layering functionality. When I put it on with just a t-shirt, it feels like I'm a small turtle moving around in a larger turtles shell. It's partly due to the stiffness of the product, and also the boxy nature of the cut. I keep second guessing my purchased size over and over again.

                        If worn over t shirt go for a true size but if a over hoodie size up….

                          @Kasi so what I'm hearing is that its perfectly suitable to own both sizes for both scenario's? I'll see what the wife (who doesn't like $400 vest #1), thinks about $400 vest #2.

                          Wish me luck!!!

                            Haha, good luck! I own a few vests in two sizes. They hang over each other on the hanger, I wash my own clothes, and almost certainly forgot to tell the wife about doubling up [emoji1]

                            I really like the vest over hoodie thing you do here a lot so you’re good for that, but in my experience different sizes for layering, while an expensive luxury, is the only way forward. I have an IHV-21 (lined 18oz denim, collarless typeIII) in XL that I use over hoodies and flannels, but I lack a sized down denim trucker to wear over a tee. I’ve asked Graham to try a few sizes of this vest for me to work out which is best.

                              I have two both same size the reason for that is I will hammer the hell out the one I wear in all weather and other for later use. The photo is pimp with GAH SNAPS still raw and stiff how I want it to be still. Water soaks maybe later to early yet.

                                @Kasi That vest is amazing and those pimped buttons are incredible.

                                Question, you had them install one button on the "inside" of the second to top button rendering it unusable?

                                            It is surely a vest worthy of love. I need a smaller size type III vest to wear over s tee this summer and it is between this, the duck and the Superblack. This is easily the least appropriate of the three but also the one I most want [emoji849]
