                      Thanks @neph93! I must say that in my hole circle of acquaintances nobody has interest in denim and such clothing, but when I wear this vest and shirt, I'll always get good comments about it. How is it for you when wearing this vest?

                        Mine doesn’t look as good on me as yours does on you, that’s for sure!

                        I do like it, but it’s smarter than the other vests I wear and I feel it would do best with a shirt and that is something I rarely do. As a result it doesn’t get worn as much as my other vests. Need to experiment.

                                Pancho & Lefty always have a few vests in stock.

                                Indigofera are big on vests, and the Spavinaw is a bit different to their usual range. Not sure if it's terrible or awesome, or if it's something that I'd wear.

                                They also have the Freewheelers Expedition Vest.

                                  I've just spotted a seventies reversible vest on eBay.

                                  It's a suede or roughout on one side.

                                  And corduroy on the other.

                                  According to the advert, it's tagged as a size 40, but the pit-to-pit measurement of 19.5" would put it closer to an IH medium. At $40, surely one of the resident vest fanatics can take it for the team?

                                    A bit too small for me but cool. I think it would fit a certain gent of the untucked variety….

                                        @neph93 I'm in need of some vest advice…..

                                        Maddy has given me the greenlight for 2 more purchases this year (Without selling gear first), and a type 3 vest is one of the things I'm choosing.

                                        or
                                        IH-526V-XHS

                                          Type III vests aren’t really my speciality. I have one (IHV-21) and had another from the Marketplace briefly but wasn’t happy with sizing.

                                          Both the two you mention are beautiful. I’d be tempted to go with the IH-526V. Classic 21oz, heavy but soft. The XHS version is gorgeous and the denim is great but it will be crazy stiff. If you don’t plan on wearing it daily it will stay that way for a looooong time. This was the way with my IHV-21. I had to force myself to wear and use it for working in to get past the stiffness.
