      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]

            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.

              @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 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.

                    For sure this fabric is the nuts… and you might be able to shrink it some.  I have the opposite problem, I'm always looking for MORE length!  Good luck.

                        They surely are. And pretty beautiful too.

                        Good to see you here @Bluegrass Has it been a while or is that just me?

                                        @UnTucked With the vast amount and variety of gear G has access to, I'm surprised anything has any evo!!!  Tho I know he still finds a way! But your vest is def, superb.

                                            If anyone has a Large in this vest I would like to purchase it. Located in the US and ready to purchase.
