          Very kind @madmonday  😉
          I prefer the other shirt as well  😉
          I find colour on the vest is very versatile and can be paired with nearly any shirt as long as you wear denim bottoms or better yet, its matching 816s  ::)

                Good way to break it in @Anesthetist - these clothes are after-all, workkwear.  And the flip side is @zatenm rocking it in the office!  Way cool.

                      Great work with pics on this thread @Anesthetist @zatenm @Bluegrass .

                      Can anyone give me an estimate as to how much shrink there is in this vest? And is it mostly in the length or the chest as well?

                        Unfortunately I can't comment much as I've only given mine a soak and I don't think I've noticed much appreciable shrinkage. I think it was a lot stiffer at first which made me think it had shrunk but in hindsight it doesn't feel any snugger. I may yet give mine a hot soak with light agitation but I'm very cautious so I don't create any marbling.

                            I hear you on that. I see @georgeel is talking about an 1" of shrinkage on what I guess is a small/medium. I'm a little wary having chosen poorly on my 02-IND, but if I fit this based on published measurements then I'm an L for a snug fit, based on the idea that I'll never wash it. Either that or XL to be safe (and boring 😉 )

                              @neph93 - looks like there is only 1 XL left in shop - I did my part and removed the XXL from stock so you wouldn't be tempted to size up too much 🙂

                                    Goes for mine as well @neph93
                                    But I did read somewhere that is does shrink quite a bit in hot water (possibly @georgeel ?)
                                    I remember because that comment got me seriously concerned about shrinking and decided never to wash it if at all possible

                                        I think the one wash on these probably does a lot to help with shrink possibilities. My old LBs shrunk a bit in the wash, but they were not washed.

                                        Im sure the one wash also helps keep the dry crocking at bay a bit (or at least I'm hoping this is the case because it looks too good with white shirts not to pair the two!)
