IH-2526V - 17oz Duck Modified Type III Vest - Brown
-
It may not be a very popular opinion around here, but I personally want my vests to be fitted. I recently picked up the indigo wabash vest and sized down 1 from my IH thermal size, to wear it over a t-shirt.
That said, I can see how it's puckering a bit in the chest/pit area. I don't think it looks bad if you don't think it's uncomfortable. You're probably in a situation where the next size up might be a little loose, if you're looking for a fitted look.
But yeah, duck won't give much.

size up

I sized up to the 44 (XXL) and brought it on my vacation to Kauai. Fit is definitely better. It's not the best match with swim trunks, but it's also not the worst…

Here's the 44, which I'm keeping. Returning the 42 next week.

My duck vest wasn’t getting the amount of love that it should’ve so I decided to wax it and it changed the fabric tremendously. I’m very excited with the results and looking forward to seeing how it’ll function now and age

Any chance of a 2025 restock??

@scottasmith1911 oh yes! In production and should be another month or two, approximately.

@DeeDee85 I felt the same and initially dipped my toe in with a second hand IH-9526V that I got for a steal on eBay a while back. It is a little larger than ideal but consequently works great over an IH hoodie. This has helped me to get used to the concept of wearing a vest. I'm probably (hopefully) going to get one of these in a smaller size / sized to wear over a tee or IH waffle henley (aiming for the kind of fit that @neph93 showcases in this very thread, which I think is superb).
I think you would quite easily pull one of these off, and plenty of fantastic shirts already in your possession to pair this with!
