IHV-02DD - Double Indigo Duck Vest

I had a XXL in this one - I’d wear an XL now.

Okay calling all vest experts!
I have zero experience with vests other than this carhartt one that I wore for a number of summers, many years ago.
In my opinion the carhartt fits a bit too snug, ideally I’d like some more room ptp but it works…
Hypothetically if I were to get one of these it would be worn with a pocket T in the summer but I’d like to be able to layer it with a light sweatshirt or flannel...
I don’t have a ‘standard’ IHSH size as the 4 IH shirts I own range from XL to XXXXL...
️Anyway, based on these measurements and the fit, what would you guys recommend for size?
Thanks!

Front length is 26.5, the 4th picture there, I think I’d be okay if my belt showed but these aren’t straight across right?

I think the XXXL will make you happy, but I think the XXL would “look better” but not give you the functionality you are wanting.

@Brock - I sold mine off two years ago I believe. Loved it, and would love a New one in a size smaller.
Also, that Carhartt vest looks absolutely
Amazing. I have the same one and never wear it. Maybe I need to put some miles on it [emoji6]Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

They aren't straight across no, so it's about the belt buckle being visible at the bottom of the placket and the belt at the back. Personally I like the vest to sit so that it just covers the belt at the back and the buckle is visible. I wish I could wear it like some guys do, short with the whole belt visible but it looks silly on me.
Judging by measurements I agree with @Appfaff You'd need an XXXL for the flexibility you want, but it's going to be long on you, I think. Like it will most likely cover the buckle on your belt. If you're good with that then cool beans. XXL would be good over just one layer.

Thanks for the tips guys! I’m still on the fence but I really love this fabric!!
How much would the length shrink up if I hot soaked it? Not sure I could rock a vest that long.

@Brock I think the wabash vests are a bit shorter - you may want to look at those - and those are lighter weight for spring/summer and wearing with a tee shirt. something to think about.
Thanks for the tip, ill check them out but I really want this fabric if I get a vest.. just scared I won’t like the length

They surely are. And pretty beautiful too.
Good to see you here @Bluegrass Has it been a while or is that just me?

I like the way you rock the pockets on that vest @UnTucked!!
