IHV-07 - Indigo 17oz Selvedge Denim Zippered Waistcoat

[rocket]

looks really great on you and I agree the left hand zipper is irritating at first, but you will get used to it…

@Finn666:

rocket looks a bit different as this fella from the IH Japan crew…just a tiny bit though;)

like Simon Pegg…. obviously...

I agree that I did not really care for this vest at first but these last few pics may have sealed the deal for me

Looks great, Bluegrass. Do you mind me asking how tall you are? This piece keeps nagging at the back of my mind

I am 6'7" 225 pounds - tag size 38 in IH jeans - and my vest is an XXXL (46).  It is fitted but not "tight" at all.  Perfect sizing to wear over a flannel shirt or t-shirt.  I also own the IH-9526V super-black vest and that is cut just a bit bigger to wear over a hoodie or other jacket.  I've been wearing the 17oz almost every day since I got it - it's awesome.  Next week is KY Derby week here, and I'll probably wear this vest to the track over a patterned dress shirt.  It's a really versatile piece.

Thanks man. We're built very similarly it seems (6'8"/240ish). Your pics swayed me over the edge on this one

[Bluegrass]

You'll like it.  I'm pretty long in torso too, and still long enough…

Giles,
does a superblack denim version will be produce soon?
remember seen one on Harakin-san.

[Giles]

He sampled one, but I do not know if it will hit production….

[hajduk]

i do hope!

[Bluegrass]

It is such a nice vest - I have been wearing mine a lot even as the weather warms and it is softening up nicely.  I'm even getting used to the "lefty" zipper.  I'd be very tempted to grab one of these in black if it were offered.

Anyone else notice how good of a sale there is on this beast? I'm not sure I could pull it off, but for the money I'm starting to consider it.

[Megatron1505]

I saw that, and keep checking back. Reckon if there are any XL left by the time Fish and Chips happens I might be going home with either these or some Wabash work pants.

This vest epitomises the "ooh is looks a bit too contrasty and in your face" point of view. Get over that and imagine it worn and faded and I'd have trouble making enough of them….

[mclaincausey]

Giles will be offering a factory distressed version

[Bluegrass]

I absolutely love this vest - I can't believe more people haven't picked this up.  Wore it today as a matter of fact…

This is exactly the point, I picture this a year or 2 down the road worn with some looser fitting denim, over the top of a red or black hoody and think…...damn! Future classic, which is on my list.

[Bluegrass]

This vest at 45% off is like stealing…

I picked one of these up and absolutely love it as is, will be even more sweet as it breaks in and wears.  I get compliments on this more than any other article of clothing I own.
