@unharmed:

2. Why is the vest so much longer than the type III jackets?

That's so it can be worn over a leather.

Ahh. That makes sense.

@unharmed:

I'm sure these question have been answered but I can't seem to find them:

1. Restock any time soon?
2. Why is the vest so much longer than the type III jackets?

1. I don't know, there are only 3 left in Japan, so we have really caught H off guard with the popularity of these.  I am trying to get a restock date out of him
2. Designed to be worn over leathers.  You will notice they they are quite a bit larger in the chest too

@Finn666:

it is?…

Yes

you´re right…though my duck type III is slightly longer as the sb vest, i totally forgot that my type III was two sizes bigger (XXL) as the vest (L)...so i guess a large type III would be a tad shorter in length!...thx!

[Sugar Mountain]

Dya think you could have gone for one size up in the vest though?

[Finn666]

@Sugar:

who me?…if yes, then the answer is no!...the vest is perfect as is...can be worn with just a t, a t+flannel and even a t+flannel+hoodie is no problem!
that´s why i´m looking to size down on the type III though

[Sugar Mountain]

Yes you!

Wasn't sure if you had much layering space under the vest but if you say you can fit a tshirt, flannel and hoodie under it, you're rocking.

I know, I can't wait to join you guys 

Also liking what Rocket said about this being an Iron Heart "essential". I'm always intrigued by what people deem as essential Iron Heart items, new thread anyone?

on a side note, i'm glad i bought the XS and did not heed LN's advice. as i am a tiny asian guy, the XS is still a little long for me, when I sit I have to unbutton the bottom 2 to be able to sit comfortably and not have the vest cover half my face. They are really something different though! I love how rigid yet comfortable they feel hugging my body, like I'm tucked into my bed.

Super, if you don't mind me asking, what is your usual IH jacket size?

[davito]

Hi supersalami the vest is roomier in the chest and longer so it may be worn over a leather jacket per haraki's idea. I would have been able to put off a xs too but stayed in my usual small. This enable me to wear a flanell or a hoody under it. But hei I am in freezy switzerland and not in average 30 Celsius areas
Looks Great supersalami

[supersalami]

I'm usually an XS in everything, if IH had XXS, I'd wear that.
Ah well that explains! I can only go the maximum, 2 layers til I sweat my balls off..
