At an art exhibit last night, displaying my handmade leather jacket.

@seawolf that jacket looks bad ass Zach! What’s the story behind it?

[seawolf]

@ZackB it was a Covid project. 111 hours of labor, all completely done by hand; I don’t own a sewing machine. Named it after my dad who loved leather. That’s pretty much it!

@seawolf it came out awesome man and thank you for the history of it.

How often do these restock. I’m hoping to pick one up and I’m trying to figure out roughly how long I’ll be waiting.

Thanks

@Jmh Hi, there are no specific lead times with regards to time between restocks. However this will likely be restocked again, but no firm plans/ETA at present.

You are more than welcome to sign up for restock notifications by selecting your out of stock size and entering your email address when prompted.

Absolutely still in love with this one. It makes its way onto my back at least three times a week.

Not a fast fader, but it will be around for a very long time.

Now just patiently waiting for a 526SV in SBG

@94atromero vests are cool and that is a nice diverse collection you have.

Washed and wore mine yesterday for the first time in a while. I think I'm gonna try and break it in more this summer by just wearing it with a tank top and letting my arms breathe.

As a vest expert, what dimension do use when trying to size a vest for purchase online? I generally use the shoulder width measurement to size tops but that doesn't hold for vests. Purely chest size? I hate when the shoulders on a vest over hang but also it can't be so tight the buttonholes look stretched when buttoned up.

Depends on the vest type. For the IHV-02 work vest style Pit to pit is most important to me since the shoulder are cut small anyway.

For the type 3 and N1 vest both the shoulder and pit to pit measurements are important to me. First I look at the shoulder size. I also don't like a vest to go past where my shoulder rounds over. Im rather small at 5'2" and 130 lbs so the corresponding chest size typically works out for me, but I also wear the type 3s open most of the time. The N1 is cut with more room and has no problem zipping up with a thick hoodie and shoulder size as described above.
