            Hmmm… white wabash or white herringbone?

                  @UnTucked that is an incredible vest, mate. Imho the fit is great, although it fits so well that it looks like a tee/long armed top kind of vest? Shirts would have to be pretty fitted. Looks great with that black top and the brown duck. Tried it with cargo pants yet?

                  Either way, well done!

                  EDIT: I can't stop staring at the pics…. the colour and sheen on the leather, and the quality of the cut. And that contrast stitching looks tight af.

                    I haven't fully played dress-up with it yet. I just threw it over a 1501 to get a general idea. I tried it over my 33MB this morning, but it didn't look good, because denim shirts are too thick to tuck for me.

                              Looking for input on fit and thought I'd try here as it might get more play than the product thread:

                              I decided I "needed" an IHV-24 to use off label as a windproof layer over tee's and henley's. The summers here can be cool and even when warm there can be a chill wind. So this is for mountain walking and everyday outdoor use. Turns out it's kind of badass in it's own right.

                              I'm trying out an M and L and have to send one back. The L is a little long and the M a little tight over the chest and shoulders, but I've gone fit blind after trying them on too much. Which looks best?

                              The L:

                              Or the M:

                                However, would you want to layer under the vest or wear the vest over a jacket?
                                if so then it's L

                                    I would go with the L @neph93 … M looks a little tight imo, even for a vest

                                      Ha. Don't think I haven't considered it. But I have an ever increasing number of mouths to feed, I just paid for xmas, and the aprons are coming.

                                      My heart is telling me M, my head L. It should be noted that my heart is still under the impression that I'm 21 years old…

                                        I think both look great. Can't go wrong. I guess focus on what you want to use it for. Maybe consider the possibility of gaining weight? In either case, your situation is ideal because I think both work well.

                                          In this perspective (wearing M) it looks like keeping the "L".
                                          But what about a T pic neph?

                                            @neph93 I'd say L, so you can wear it over a flannel or other heavy shirt in the Spring and Fall - still works with a T - plus you might "expand" a bit - my weight tends to fluctuate +or - a few pounds, generally + in the winter.  But with the M, if you only wear with a T you could even leave it unbuttoned.
