      Good work! Just pulled the trigger on the blue wabash, also my first IH vest. Figured that as lovely as this one is, I have some duck in my life, but no wabash. Of course I want this too…  😞

      Cheers @neph93 ! Both blue & black wabby make for a superb vest IMO.. definitely my next vest if this first one works out…....
      Looking forward to hearing your opinion when you receive it [emoji4]

        @DrBabyhorse:

        I'm tempted to venture into the vest territory but the sizing has me hesitating. I typically wear a xxl in IH shirts. It seems like the most common advice is to go down a size in the vest, but a 22in p2p in the xl seems rather slim. I wear an xxl in the ihsh 111, 92 and the twsh 102. Does the xl in this vest seem like the way to go? Also, are there any chinos in those boxes? 🙂

        I've just ordered my first IH vest and did loads og homework beforehand. I own some vests by a Norwegian brand called livid and that helped. I think the thing is that the chest measurements are taken a few cm lower on vests than they are on the shirts, so the P2P only seems prohibitive. I went with an L and I take XL in shirts (got some help from G and Aetas as well [emoji6])

        That being said, I'll be wearing mine over t-shirts only. Maybe go XXL if you'll be layering.

          @zatenm  For sure, the blue wabby and indigo duck have the same measurements. Be interesting to compare notes [emoji106]

              I normally wear an XL…wondering if the XL will be too slim or just right...22.5-23 is a great fit for a trim fit for me.

                I am a slim tall guy 177cm/65kg, 5,1ft/143 lbs. giles, do you think size m ou s is better ? I hesitate, the s seem too skinny and too short.

                  I think S will work if you wear an S IH western.

                    I wear L, as I do in almost all IH shirts and jackets…

                          It is here…...! Thanks to Paula for the wonderful service as usual. She was kind enough to send me both an S and and M to try on [emoji4]

                          The M is visibly too wide so I won't show it. Here's the S:

                          I'm loving this piece and I think I like the fit. Only length seems potentially borderline. What do you guys think?
                          This is my first vest do feedback is highly appreciated indeed!

                          @Giles I read this is supposed to shrink some. Enough to jeopardise the length in your opinion?

                          @neph93 did you get yours yet? Please don post some pics when you have it [emoji4]

                              ^looks awesome. Is the S a size down from what you normally wear in IH shirts?

                                  Mine left Gosport this morning and has to make it up to northern Norway. Won't be here until Thursday next week. But pics for sure when it gets here.

                                  I reckon that fit is top notch, you should be chuffed. Nice clean lines and well matched with the shirt and bottoms.

                                  I don't think it's too short at all. I think that's how they're supposed to fit. Well done [emoji123]

                                    @Simoon I'm 186cm tall and weigh 72kg. I read your previous posts & I think an S would be well fitting on you [emoji106]

                                    @DrBabyhorse I didn't, I wear an S in most westerns

                                    @neph93 thanks man, I AM indeed chuffed [emoji3]
                                    Looking forward to seeing yours when it reaches [emoji482]I know the wait sucks but it'll make it sweeter when it lands….
