      tbh i think i wouldn´t cop a medium if i was you…L is totally the way to go with imo. you still can wear it with just a t or layer with a t/shirt or hoodie combo...i think i´d choose the "bigger" size to make it more versatile instead of just being able to wear it with a t alone!

        problem is that if you go down, you won't be able to layer at all. For example I could prob get into a Small, but it would be really tight and I wouldn't be able to button it… But as always, it for sure depends on your own build... safe way = your normal size

            and I'm sure after this you would return it for a Large….

            again for fitting, imo only go down one if you wanna wear it exclusive open with only a tee under. If you want to be able to button it up and or layer it and stay comfy, go for your normal size...

            backed! thats what i found out after getting my hands on this. i had a chance to try both small and medium but sadly. small was too snug when worn with a just a tee. btw im a medium in all my IH shirts and my measurements are above. 🙂

              thanks alot for your kind words mate. and yeah my chest are kinda huge (probably my manboobs. ;D) and as for height, im asian and we all know asians are born short like a dwarf compared to you guys. 😞 wish i had the height of G and the other guys here. 😞 183cm or 6ft would be perfect. 😞

                Thanks for the advice…I just think a vest looks better when it fits snug and I think I can do M, at least I can in Levi's vests.

                commercial brands like levis have got what i call vanity sizing. they write tagged 32 but they measure 34. makes you feel slim. not saying you're fat but if you wear a M for levis, it might be a L for IH. (harsh truth hurts) 🙂

                anyway go with your usual sizing mate. like if you're a L for all your shirts, get L. you will get a wider field of play with the vest than to downsize. you can wear with a hoodie, shirt or just a tee. 🙂

                  I meant I have a bigger chest than you (42")… Bigger boobs perhaps?..

                  Also 1.74 m = perfect length. Don't let anyone else tell you otherwise  😉 😉

                    opps! i take back my words, lets call it well-toned chest. 😉

                    hahaha perfect length? alright thanks mate. so we both have well-toned chest and a perfect length. 😉

                        I had an m. Worked perfectly with a hoodie underneath. Flo and me are the same statue… I saw Landons vest in L which looked pretty huge...

                        Bummer. Why did I sell it?!? At least I can wear my Denim Jacket more often 🙂

                        why so serious?

                          after wearing mine for a few hours before going to work today, I also think that Flo is able to rock a medium in this!
                          I still have enough space left when wearing a shirt or even a hoodie. so since Flo only looking to wear this with a t, a medium should be fine and working!…

                                  Eat more and hit the gym. Some of my lifting buddies are Asian (Japanese/Filipino) Lots of formerly skinny white dudes rolling in the larger sizes have done it too (myself included).  It is do-able if you try! I was obese as a teenager, with a 44" waist which went down to a 32 when was in my early 20's. A bunch of squats and deadlifts later I'm at a 36" waist. 46.5" chest. There are plenty of resources around here and I'm happy to answer questions when I can. 🙂

                                      thank you derivative and CLJ.  Finn… the hoodie is a Medium and the vest is a Small.  I basically take everything IH in a Small except hoodies/jackets, but knowing that the Vest was designed big anyway I stuck with the Small (definitely the right decision, Medium would have been huge on me).
