Yeah, you might size down be happier with the fit if you size down…

Something just occurred to me, is this restock (and eventually future restocks) of this, and the IHV-02-IND, specced with the extra length found on the IHV-02-DD?

^^ Would appeal to me too!

[Giles]

Nope….

@Giles:

Nope….

What I thought. I guess they'd be candidates for a new model number then.

Restocked…

Scored this from @BULLITT BEE (thanks again, dude!) in an XXL (I'm an XL/L in vests) just to see. It was far to big in the chest but the length was perfect. A couple of weeks with the local seamstress, and voilá. She's taken it in at the sides to a 54cm p2p, and not touched the shoulders, so the silhouette is different to the OG. I'm happy. This is my happy face:

Thank you, gentlemen. I'm satisfied enough that I'm considering buying the indigo and getting the same job done.

Looks awesome dude.

Looks awesome dude.

Nice of you to say so!

Mighty good lookin' on you, Sir!  The length was also good for me, but the buttons on the chest were hanging on to dear life.  I'm glad it's gone to a good home.

Bit of documentation for the greater good:

In conjunction with buying (yet another) 02-IND I did a test wash of my tailored 02-BLK. It's an XXL that I had taken in from 56,5cm p2p to 54cm p2p. The length was 67,6. I washed at 50c and 500 rpm in a European front loader. then let it drip dry, and got the following results:

Post tailoring/prewash –-> Post wash
P2P: 54,5cm --------------> 53,6cm
Front length 67,6 ---------> 66cm

So shrinkage to be had with a warmish wash.
