IH-9526V - 21oz Non-Fade Denim Type III Vest - Superblack

Arrow, I went with a L (40). Could have gone to a medium but would have looked whack with hoodies. As it i most hoodies have a tendency to peak out of the bottom. Black hoodies blend well! I would go with an L if I were you arrow, unless you just wanna rock a long or short sleeved shirt under it.

I'm shocked that Peterock1 doesn't own an IH-9526V yet !

yeah, i don't have this… yet. when they first came out last year, i asked kiya to order me a sz 42 (XL), when it arrived at self edge it was a sz 40 (L). haraki-san said to size down.... but it did not work out for me. it was already a little tight without wearing a layer underneath. i wanted to be to layer it with a heavy flannel or leather jacket when i plan to ride. a few weeks later kiya goes to arizona and takes pics with "sonny".... so i think technically sonny is wearing my vest ;D? i do plan to own this piece sooner or later

Anyone managed to get one of these to shrink?
Never washed mine/ soaked mine… I'll let you now if I ever do.

Ok so if i DO pick one of these up… sizing advice? I'm about a 38 chest right now and wear medium shirts. If i wanted to just wear a tshirt/flannel/etc under it, what size should i go for? Medium(38)?

Splattered, I have a 38 and I like to wear mine over a hoodie or a jacket. I've also worn it over a l/s button up shirt, but I just don't feel like I could sport it with just a T (my own personal taste). G is right I proly could have gotten away with a small but I like the way my M fits. Judging by what you said about how your other IH shirt fits I'd go with the M if I were you. The small may just be too constricting of a feeling for you imho. Hope this helps. Btw you won't be disappointed this vest rocks. Cheers.

Received it today! What a kick ass piece!
It's uhmm … rather roomy in the midsection though with a T or button up.
Wondering if i should have gone with a size S.

Experimented with layering tonight… over a t-shirt, t + button up, and hoodie... i think this will work out fine afterall. With just a T its pretty loose but it still looks decent... with a T and button up it fills out a bit more or at least gives the appearance of it esp under the arms, and then under a light hoodie it is perfect. If it were smaller i think it may be just a tad too tight with a hoodie/jacket.
