IHV-02-BLK - 12oz Wabash/Duck Work Vest - Black/Black

Worse comes to the worse and you can't decide. Order both and send one back for a full refund…..
Actually, seeing as this is your first IHV-02, this is a very good idea. Also this is surely the major reason why credit cards were invented.
Well I ordered the XXL late last night (originally fat-fingered in an XL but I changed it). Guess I should have just ordered both. Regardless it will be here Monday so I will know soon enough if an exchange is warranted.
I appreciate the feedback Neph93!

^ I look forward to hearing how it goes.
The XXL fits across the shoulders but the P2P, arm hole, and length are all a little too big. I just ordered the XL so once it gets here I'll compare fits. I should have just ordered both the first time…

Well the XL fits much better than XXL, less fabric around the waist and just the right length. Time to initiate a return…
Thanks for all the advice everyone!

Excellent work! Now for some fit pics

Well @neph93 , a little delayed but here you go…
I wore the vest along with the IHSH-21-blk and IH-816-BW at an event at a friend's bar - a reincarnation of a 1920s speakeasy. The ensemble fit in well with the vibe and garnered many compliments.

Excellent work, mate! Looks very sharp indeed. I don't wear my vests with shirts, but that pic makes me think I need to up my chambray game.
On another note I've lost about 12kg over the last year and both my IHV-02BLK and IND (which were already a bit long) started to be a bit wide in the body. It was at the point where I was considering selling both and sizing down which I didn't fancy. So I nuked them both with a 90C wash on full spin (after an initial soak to deter marbling). It worked amazingly well. Lost <1" in length and <.5" in the body. They fit much better now and the vests suffered no detrimental effects other than the IND losing some of it's indigo and both vests developing some mad roping at the hem and arm holes, which looks badass.

you go bare-chested under your vests ???
I'm going for that retro Village People look
We maybe seperated by a common language here but I generally only wear tee's or henley's under my vests as opposed to shirts with collars and buttons [emoji28]

Thanks Sam!
That's too funny - I was a big Ted Baker fan in High School - something about British flamboyance I embraced heavily in my teens haha [emoji23]
