      Please forgive me for not reading all 55 pages of this post.

      I need help deciding between a Small and Medium in the IH-9526V. My measurements are pretty much in between the numbers (small / medium) on the charts for these 2 sizes.

      The most i would layer over would be a t-shirt and long sleeve shirt and possibly a thin wool sweater.

      I own an IHSH-75, size medium and it fits perfectly.

      I am 5' 7.5" tall, weigh 140 lbs, 32" waist.

      On the vest measuring chart my numbers are:
      #1 17"
      #2 10"
      #3 20.5"
      #4 18.5"
      #5 26.25"
      #6 24.25"

      Thank you very much!
      Steve

            Giles, you were spot on about my vest sizing.

            I was between a small and a medium and you suggested small which i bought.

            Just layering a tee shirt i have extra room with a small vest. Layering a thick hoodie underneath is the most i could manage comfortably.

            However, the medium would be too large in every dimension unless i wanted to layer more under it.

            For those interested you can see my exact measurements a few posts previous to this.

            I mention this so others that are in between sizes would know my experience.

            The measurements given for the vest and the "How we measure" sync up perfectly.

              Throw out some fit pics, if you have the time. Glad it worked out for you.

                                  scored a nice one second hand, really stoked with the fit. Been wanting one for a while.

                                      Great pick up there. Been thinking about one of these myself. Maybe in the future

                                            thanks fella's! I'm really happy with it.
                                            I was worried as it was filthy dirty when it arrived. But I gave it a good solid wash in the tub and it came out good as new. My wife thought that it actually was new.  😉
                                            This thing is no joke! It's sturdy, very sturdy. But yet somehow IH manages to make this monster soft? (wrong word but can't think of a better) and completely wearable  This is a staple as far as I'm concerned.  😘
