IHV-02DD - Double Indigo Duck Vest

[neph93]

Which dimensions are you worried about? Chest/shoulders/armholes look great imho. You could stand to loose a little in length but not much. It looks a little stiff as it's new so absolutely soak and wear it like a boss

[Dion]

I'd say size down one… but it depends on your personal preferences (loose vs. snug fit).

[rocket]

length will shrink somewhat, so that's not a problem… P2P and arm opening could be snugger, undecided how much they will / could shrink... on the other end shoulders are fine and might be too small on a Small....

and as you said it's stiff stiff right now....

Cheers @neph93

Don't size down mate, mine shrank quite a bit when hot washed. Plus when it softens the fit relaxes.. Not teaching you anything there.

thanks for the input guys @den213 @EastWest @Anesthetist

did some further more try on, will stick with the Medium and shrink it to perfection….  hopefully ...

a beautiful piece it is....

and reminds me once again that I really should spend more time with trying stock on and less with drinking wine while in Gosport...

Stick with M and hot soak it IMO @rocket
From my experience with DD, you'll get half a size down with agitation and a perfect fitting vest

[rocket]

I will, thanks mate… @zatenm

project shrink gonna start after lunch…. and maybe a short nap...
