IHV-02DD - Double Indigo Duck Vest

[Hereforthebeer]

Thanks for pic's Giles. Any reason why it's not double indigo all over like the brown IHV-03?
That would be my prefrence, but either way it looks great.

I specced it to be the same as the IHV-02 which has a lighter weight navy cotton duck back section, I prefer the contrast…..

Looks amazing. I'm currently considering the IHV-02 IND. Need to work out sizing but suspect I'm XL. This one is giving it serious competition on my "to-buy list".  Are the rivets and buttons on the sample deliberately aged? How soon is soon??

EDIT: The more I look at this the more excited I'm getting….

God damn…I might have to get one more item from you...haha.

[Anesthetist]

Hot damn!

[Jordonf9]

So is this 16.5oz duck? And what is the back weight?

Decisions … decisions ..

Yes and my guess is 12oz or so…..

@Max:

^I would look at the chest measurements as main reference point.

Two things puzzle me - how long will this thing bleed? I would wear it over lighter shirt and I figure it takes a few washes to reduce the bleeding. Second: Can I take out the rivets without leaving too big holes in the fabric.

Any updates to the crocking conundrum with your sample Giles? I could see myself wearing this with a tee and don't want to risk a ruined white shirt.

[Giles]

I wear mine over a white Tee all the time.  I have wrecked nothing…....It does bleed a lot, but the indigo seems to do no lasting damage....

[Finkster]

  .. two of the best

[Giles]

Will be here Monday 20th….

[Anesthetist]

Cant wait to see the measurements! What is the price going to be? I also have to look at the other vests in this line to see how it looks over untucked shirts/flannels.

[Finkster]

@Anesthetist : how many vests do you own?  .. I reckon hundreds 

[Giles]

USD285…
