IHV-40-BRN - Beach Cloth Vest - Brown
-
…this is such an unusual piece. I think I would like it better with just the lower pockets but it just keeps growing on me. :-\
...I could see this growing old along with me.
uuhhggg! ::) -
…'SORRY no restocks of this product' got to me in the end. :o Odd and intriguing vest, first 'Beach Vest' I've ever owned and quite certain the last.
...@Alex, like your fathers podcast before you, your podcast inspired me to make another IH purchase! Good stuff!

Oh well done! The IHV-08 (same vest but without the leather) was one of my first IH purchases and six years later it is still with me and one of my favourites. It is so well executed, you’re going to love it.

…thanks @neph93! I'm sure the 'calf leather pockets' kicked up the price on this also but I doubt I'll ever see anything like this out on the mean streets! :o
…can't wait for it to arrive. I have an Aero shearling vest coming at some point also. Sad I'll have to park these until fall but when that time comes I'll be set!
-
Can't wait to see it on ya @vaquero357 - it's a beautiful piece!
-
…@Appfaff it arrives tomorrow if all goes according to plan! Post up a pic as soon I can!
(I'm a poet and didn't know it) -
I can't wait to see it.
-
…well tickle my ass with a feather! I'm so pleased with this acquisition!
Couldn't be happier! 
…looking like Norton on 'The Honeymooner's'!
-
…here's one buttoned up. It's possible I could of went down a size but if I ever have to launder it I'll still be safe.

@vaquero357
first off, that thing is not my style but suits you perfectly. I love the look of the beach cloth and leather. It's like nothing I've seen before.second, I think you would be safe to size down and still be able to layer, have a little less length in the body, and get more year round use out of it.
Take this as an uneducated opinion from across the twin cities metro area by a guy typing this in a pink jacket.
whatever you decide, that thing is badass
-
@vaquero357 that vest is so sweet. Looks awesome on you.
-
…thanks @Filthy @jordanscollected ! It is an oddity and according to sir Giles there's usually so few of the XXXXL size in anything produced right now that it's sure to be a 'rare oddity'! :o
…by the description of it it's supposed to be more fit and worn under a jacket, I know, but I'd hate to cover it up! It's too cool it needs to be hangin' it out there!
...there's a pocket for my pipe, for my tobacco, my lighter and maybe a monocle!
you know, for when I get old....and @jordanscollected I think of your jacket as a rose' or chablis or champagne…not pink! ???
-
…@Appfaff I definitely could see you sporting this vest my friend, this is right up your alley!
-
…is this cool or what?
-
I have the IHV-08 and it’s great but this one is really special. Those pockets truly set it all off!
I like that Haraki has fixed the issue with the shoulders bowing out in the front when it is fully buttoned. It’s my only quibble with the original but it’s too functional and easy to wear not to enjoy it. I could def see mine as always fitting in with my wardrobe in one way or another. I imagine you’ll find yours to be the same.
Be careful about washing it though, I think I remember a Beach Cloth jacket shrinking really dramatically after a hot wash? I dont think I’ve washed mine but maybe dry cleaned it?
