THIS OR THAT?

634sii

The 18oz double indigo is fantastic denim. Loads of character and gets mad soft and comfy.

Haven't tried the pronto, but I have the 634sii and the colour is beautiful

Sold some stuff that was surplus to requirements and can buy something that Mrs Neph is going to hate and that a 44 year old man probably shouldn't be seen wearing. It's between this:

I tried the C3 on at Kanreki but @Graeme said I was going full viking and that ruined it for me (jk Graeme  ).

Truth is I'm torn. The C3 is a little over the top, but not as over the top as the IHV-28. The IHV-28 is absolutely glorious but the C3 maybe has a longer shelf life. And @Giles , saying buy both isn't an acceptable answer, but only because I can't  ::)

Neph.. if it were I, i'd get the C-3

For you boyo I'd have to agree with the above. Defo C3 all day long - it's a no brainer imo

my vote is for the C3 but only because you're in Norway and it looks warm as hell. I think you'll get more use out of the C3 than the 28

Definitely the C3. The camo vest has a slight look of ''trying too hard'' but the C3 is simply a bad ass mofo that takes no prisoners.

[Appfaff]

I actually say get the V-28.

Here is my take - you can always get a C3 made custom if needed. And the V-28 is a seasonal
Release.  Plus, the V28 can be worn under your N1, whereas the C3 IS the outward

I would go with the C3.

I remember you trying on the C3. It was fantastic.  And if the wife is going to be mad anyway, make it worthwhile by getting the truly bonkers vest.

[Sage954]

She might not even notice the v-28. You will just blend in with the background.
C3 will get noticed.

[sabergirl]

I️ have to go with the crowd, a vote C3. I’m not that big on camo, though.

Here's the photo of @neph93 in the C3. It is full-on Viking Kitten, and he should consider it for that reason.

That said, I agree with @Appfaff that the IHV-28 is endangered, and won't be repeated.

Alternatively, get the C3 now, and then pick up an IHV-28 if it ends up in the Outlet.

C3

[Signal11]

I too remember you tried on the C3 and it looked great on you. I would go for C3.

[Giles]

Buy the C3, then when you come at Xmas get the 28….

[steelworker]

I like the 28. The camo pattern is a bit like dazzle camouflage of WWI. I don't want another vest. Repeat as necessary.
Here in Pa. no one would look twice at the 28. You might get some sideways looks with the C-3.  :-\

Get the C3 jacket [emoji55]

The C-3 vest is so manly, and versatile. I'm more of a fan of sizing it snug and wearing it under a jacket though, or just over a long sleeve t-shirt in less cold times.

(For those that don't know, these were originally designed as a mid-layer pieces, intended to be worn under a flight jacket.)
