IHV-03-BRN - 17oz Cotton Duck Work Vest - Brown

[anodyne]

Yeah, I went XL with the Sashiko and it's not as "fitted" as it could be, but it shrunk a bit after wash. I went XL with this as well Excited for this (and my stacked bucket hats).

3x ordered. Possibly the 2x chest would've worked but needed body length.

XXL for me. When it arrives, @scooter will be getting some unwanted attention as I have rather a beautiful story to tell…

@Luijim78 with 4 on the menu found me good - thanks for asking - glad for you too, It gets questionable when only 1 or 2 released.

[Luijim78]

@John-Galt yes 4 would always be ideal, I'm really happy, I'm waiting to see some photos my friend

[CosmoSix5]

Great measurements lead to great results. Glad to have a properly fitting Wabash vest to compare. I could've sized down to XXL but the versatile nature of a lightweight vest should work under a light shirt(cinched up) or a few heavy layers(un-cinched)
+New sticker!

This will get worn a lot more than my Wabash.

Good evening, a few quick photos, forgive me for looking even more emaciated and cadaverous than usual but I'm the only one to have caught bronchitis in Italy with 40 degrees in August

The lesson here for me is not new: always trust the IH numbers. One of the things IH figured out from the start is that a reliable fit is just as important as the premium product. It's still the case that so many other fine Japanese brands really don't offer a "serious" fit chart. I compared this vest with the recent Sashiko and an older Wabash example, and that made ordering the correct size a bit "odd" (Am I realllly a XXL?) but the chart makes it clear and you should more (and less) ignore the tag size.
