I love it,what do you think? Very cool! Thanks.

[Max Power]

@Jett129 yeah, I love it too. Brown and black is a great Combo, this might make it to my wardrobe for livegigs or in case I ever own a motorcycle.

[Jett129]

I'm a big fan of the denim/leather combination.

[Guest]

[Giles]

The product says:

Sorry
No restocks of this product

However, we may be able to get a few more, I think H has done a stealth production run.

I will update the product to allow out of stock notifications….

If you’re “not a vest guy” but want to try one out, this may be the best for you. Goes with everything and is so easy to wear….

I think I need pins and/or patches on mine...

[Guest]

@neph93 I just ordered one  I think I might leave mine clean, but I said that with my last IH vest and now it’s covered in patches.

@neph93 I just ordered one 

I tend to overdo everything (jewellery, accessories, layers), and struggle to keep things clean and minimal so I’m resisting the urge at the minute. But it is crying out for decoration.

You’ll love this. It looks killer with the IHTB-01’s I know you are fond of.

Yea, its an awesome vest! What kinds of pins / decoration were you thinking? I also think of adding patches but also like the cleaner look on this.

I’ve picked up a few of the IH patches over the last few years and only used one. I like the idea of getting hold of a few patches from some of the 80’s -and 90’s punk/thrash/hardcore bands I listen to.

My favourite band of more recent years (The Hold Steady) currently has a set of enamel pins out that I like and of course there are some great Good Art pins too.

[Max Power]

Not a bad choice! I really would like to have two of these, one plain and one with patches. I think white looks great on brown cotton duck.

Looking good in your vest! @neph93

IH-2525v is getting a whole load of wear. Very versatile, very practical.

Looks stunning, @neph93. Just curious, how do you size your vest? Do you get your "normal" IH size? I always have noticed the pit to pit and other measurements are always a little different on vests.

Thank you. Slightly tricky question to answer simply. It all depends on the vest and how you want to wear it.

First off, I take XL in shirts. Generally if I want a vest to wear just over a tee then I take an L. Over a hoodie or layers then XL. Some of my favourite work vests are M though, and I have at least one heavy quilted vest that is L but I wear over layers.

The key is not to equate p2p on a vest to p2p on a shirt. As a rule the armholes on vests are bigger than on shirts and therefore lower down. The measurement you need is often smaller as a result.

The next thing is length. Some people want vests in or even above the belt, some want a waistcoat fit where the vest covers the waistband and belt. So this is important to check too.
