      I wear medium in most shirts and went large in this.  Allows me to fit a flannel and a sweatshirt underneath it…

        Thanks. It looks seriously fantastic. Few things really pique my interest, but this just seems so versatile. I feel like I need it…

            Looks like H-san did his own little tweak to this:

                Not sure what happened.  Lifted from Boss Talk.  I changed it over to a link to the blog.

                              Great pictures Davito and emcee. This vest is sitting in my shopping cart now.

                              What is care on this? Can it be hand washed?

                                I have had my IHW-01 over two years now and have not washed it.  Call me weird, but wool hardly ever needs a wash.

                                I know landocal had Dry Cleaned his….that is what I would do as well, but I know that in a thread somewhere, Haraki described how to handwash wool.

                                  Agreed. I don't wash my wool items very often but when I do I like to wash them by hand. I don't want to mess with dry cleaning.

                                    Thx veloaudio and good decision yourself to get this beauty. I am going to drycleanit  when it is necessary sometimes in future.

                                        Vest arrived. I ordered XL but I think I need a L. Thoughts?

                                        Side view with the sides of the vest cinched.

                                          Have you tried it with a heavier shirt? Based on the side view, I don't think it would hurt to size down. Ultimately, it's all about how you feel in it though.
