      I have a similar fit in my XL.  Probably could have gone with an L, but seanocono said the same thing I would, which is I would rather have it a tad big.  IMO it looks great with the flannel but too big with just a t shirt.  It also looks rather big from the side.  However, this thing starts out really stiff, and I am guessing that after a year or two, it will drape differently.

      Out with the new! In with the old!

        Thanks guys. I've decided to keep the XL. I could get away with the Large but it would limit my shirt options.  I was not planning to wear this vest with just a t-shirt and it looks great over my FH flannel and my 21 and 35  🙂

          Great looks fellas.  Just curious - can you jam your cell phone in the breast pocket and still snap the snap..?

            ^ iPhone is too tall to snap the pocket

                ^yup won't snap depending on the cell if you have one of those mini old school ones it will maybe work. I keep mine in the hand pockets and carrying a pen and sometimes a spyderco or douk douk knife in the chest pocket. The vest is really one of my fav IH pieces I have in my collection.

                Cheers,

                    I'm really thinking about picking this up, but I wanted to wait to see more of the Fall stuff. Will these be rerun or should I nab now?

                        Ordered! I'm a medium in shirts, so I ordered a large. Hoping the fit is spot on.

                              I just got mine as well. How do you like the vest Ben? Mine fits about perfectly.

                                I wish mine fit a little smaller as I'm only wanting to wear it over tees, so on the sale board it goes 😞

                                    It's still 90° outside, but I had to try this thing out today at least indoors. When I saw this I knew I had to have it.

                                        Large vest over a medium 80. Fits trim but not snug which is what I was really hoping for.
