[Giles]

That is Daniel Antoni, he was the Flat Head translator, has now moved on to a new job (like yesterday)….Daniel was with us in Zurich and Berlin earlier this year...

[Finn666]

[Giles]

Yes, now we have a lovely Japanese guy called Yamada who is self taught at English and is brilliant.

[Finn666]

[daynym]

Interesting Lady for sure. Some of her arts would well go for a tattoo.

Ugh, what to do about sizing….

[Chponglasia]

Aaaaand ordered.  I followed G's lead and went up one from my normal IH size.  Want to be able to wear this comfortably over my heavier IH shirts.

[thomasnunnally]

Had trouble deciding between the Large and XL…went XL....I guess we will see.

[davito]

Wearing mine right now and knew that this is an absolutely must have if you into vests. The wool, the chambray lining and overall finish is out of this world. Thx for doing this great stuff Big G and H-san, respect.

I went with my usual small, pics later.

Edit: the vest and me in the shop, wearing a Flanell from Rising Sun in a small as well

I am a slim little guy, 62kg, 173cm.

[davito]

ok friends and here maybe something a lot are waiting for:

72 medium under the IHV-05 small  ??? 
again I am pretty skinny so this might not work for everyone

it works nicely and fits me the way I love it.

guys and gals I am stoked about this vest and in person it is even more beautiful than on pics. Thanks again IronHeart
