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

^ beautiful. Love the hardware on the wabash gear and wish it would be used more often on jackets (although the 101J-blk is a great start).

[UnTucked]

Yeah, I've asked before in the "Random Questions" thread why the vests use brown hardware, and their corresponding pants use silver… No answer. Well, rather the answer was "I don't know", lol!

The truth is because sometimes I forget to spec stuff or Haraki does what he thinks best anyway….

That's quite the look, you pull it off well.

A bolo tie might be icing on the cake?

Looks very smart @Appfaff
You may have added this to my radar

Cheers, @madmoses - is truly is an exceptional piece.  It's super versatile and pretty convenient too. I can chuck a ton of gear in the pockets and no one is the wiser ha.

I agree that IH vests are surprisingly versatile, currently loving my IHV-02DD. I would consider it paired with my 13's among my best combos. I also love it with just a T.

Most of my IH shirts fall in the 29-30" length range with a few creeping close to 31" and I would buy an XXXL in this putting me at 27.4 length unless there's a freak in the batch…I see your 02-BLK is 25" front length, what length are most of your IH shirts? I'm trying to figure what length I would REALLY need/how much shorter than my shirts the vest could be before looking off.

I'm 6'3" 235 and the extra length on the 02DD was part of it's allure for me, but after wearing it I feel I could probably pull off slightly shorter with no problems. Thanks for your time and input good sir.

@madmoses - I agree - the IHV-02DD was my first IH vest and I loved it. Sadly, it grew a little large on me and I let it move to a more caring owner.

I had always stayed away from the 02-BLK because of the length, but it actually is the perfect length and size for me. I wish IH would take another moderate weight material and do a vest in it like the Grey one from years ago.  I would love one down in brown Whipcord, but I'm sure I am the minority on that lol

I would surely second that motion!

Me too. In fact I've been annoying everybody with my vest requests for about two years.

I would love to get the vest, but I´m not quite sure about the sizing. Normally I wear an XXL in all IH-Shirts. So do you guys think I should go for a XXL?

Depends how you want to wear it. Over a shirt/tee combination then probably XXL, snug and over just one layer then XL might be best.

You should also think about length. Do you have any preference about where the vest ends? Below, on or above belt for example.

I didnt like it to snug. About the length I´m not quite sure yet. I think I would prefer on the belt.

Sounds like XXL may be the way to go. Measure a vest you own the same way IHUK measure, and check the measuring table to get an idea of length.

[Appfaff]

Yeah XXL for sure.
