        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… 🙂

          Like I said, vests are tricky. I've taken fit pics and asked for feedback before. Check the "vest whores" thread.

            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!

                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.

                          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]

                            I figured it was something like that!!! I hadn't seen any bare-chested shots on the IHF  🙂

                              Size XL hits just at my belt buckle on some 634S. Back rests just above the waist, but it a lot of shirt showing through.

                              Measures:
                              size XL
                              Shoulders: 16
                              P2P: 22
                              Waist: 21.25
                              Length Front (top of shoulder to peak): 25
                              Length back (top of shoulder to base): 23.75

                              Cheers,

                                Mine is shorter in torso (on me) than yours - I think yours looks great.

                                    Loving your new style of fit pics @Appfaff … reminds me of Ray Kalvin (the guy who created Ted Baker) He always hides his face in photos.

                                    Vest looks great!

                                      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]

                                            You might have just convinced me to give this a try in XL.
