      For those that own, how is the sizing settling? I'm usually an XL but based on measurements would probably fit a Large. Seem par for the course? @rocket @Filthy

        I think the measurements are slightly inflated due to the thickness of the material. I would probably go with an XL so you have a little room for layering. See the posts above with the guy's that's too small. It fits but would look better a size up. @Chain$titch

          Appreciated! The bulkiness of outerwear is indeed tricky… He was between sizes for work (L) and western (XL) and went Schmedium, so not sure how to extrapolate from his experiment.

            Someone from the crew might have similar measurements as you if you ask.

              Length and how you want to wear it are the major factors.

              I’m an XL in most IH shirting and could wear anything from an M to an XL. L would be the most flexible and I could wear it with most things. M would be great over a tee and still reach my belt. XL for some oversized warmth and comfort with a hoodie or a UHF.

                I have a Medium, what is a relaxed fit and easy for layering over a shirt or jacket.  Small would have worked too and the "better" (more fitted) option for wearing just over a tee.

                Choose depending on your fit preferences and the majority of the planned usage, layering, stand alone, etc..

                L for tee and fitted layering / XL for relaxed layering …

                    I've been meaning to buy a vest for a long time now and I feel like this won't be a purchase I will regret - especially with the current sale price. That's why I just placed my order.

                    What I like about this vest more than the other IH vests is that it looks nice, would be easy to combine with most/ all of my other IH pieces and is functional. I just really love functional jackets, vests, shirts, and etc.

                    The only thing I wish it had, which really is just a personal wish of course, is an additional inner pocket on the right side but you can't have everything ::) Also a hidden hoodie with a zipper in the back could make this vest even much more functional than it already is.

                              It’s thin but warm. Kinda like a sweater vest

                                  This has been getting a lot of wear since I picked it up.  Great piece.

                                    I hope no one minds I bump this. I was looking for the others that had this. I originally really wanted a 14 because of the round pockets. But I'm glad I have this one because I prefer the zipper and snaps on this one. And the body fabric apparently is some kind of fugitive dyed chambray. It has white fade on the corners of the pockets. I might have to start wearing this every day…

                                    The 21 oz denim is completely un-faded.

                                      My vest is in the worsher with my IHC-06 and that UHF I had on earlier. It on gentle, with no spin, inside out… hope the buttons don't get all chipped up and the denim doesn't crease. 😵‍💫

                                      My cap is in the ball cap buddy inside out. I need an IH vest buddy.  😃

                                        Looks great @Filthy. The vest and the outfit in general. This is one of the few IH vests I don’t own though [emoji31]
