    This vest gets worn a bunch so I wanted to share how it looks with a bit of fading. It’s never been washed but has been soaked once

      ^ I have wondered for a while where all the worn in ones were. Thanks for posting this, it looks great.

            Well, I wore it for two years while hiking glaciers in Remote Interior Alaska [emoji902]

              I am definitely going to check this out.  The vest is beautiful, and can’t wait to see the story!

              Thank you!

                  Worn XHS vests are obviously like the nr.2 bus where I live. You can wait ages and not see one then two come along at once. Very nice indeed @The_Bourbon_Denim_Guy

                    Ahhh man my vest story ain’t nowhere near as cool as that, I just wear mine when I ride. Those inside pockets are deep and they come in handy. It’s a badass vest that damn near feels bulletproof

                      I wear mine whenever the weather allows me but still not a lot of fading going on. This mofo takes a while to break in  😃

                        I have upgraded to a bigger size, am thinking shall I soak or not
                        @neph93 what your opinion…

                        Has anyone soak... their first, or worn raw

                          It should shrink in line with jeans. The only experience I have of shrinking type III's is with my IHV-21. It is was the old 18oz denim, but lined. The lining made shrinkage harder but I gave it a super hot wash which did the job.

                          I say go for it, especially if you'd like it a little more trim.

                          As a matter of interest, what are you doing with your old one?  😉

                            It’s hot soak now… even GAH snaps are shining

                              Last time I brought this vest I worn it RAW, felt very uncomfortable button kept popping open.
                              Am starting all over again.
                              Now I after soak it this time fall’s in the right place how it should be crunch up in length

                                Nailed it mate. Great vest fit.

                                  That really looks great and totally sick with the GA snaps.
