        Massive thanks to @Giles, @Haraki-san, the IH team and the Simmons Bilt team, most especially Kelly who crafted my vest.

        Brief Review:
        A durable, warm and presentable vest is a part of my lifestyle for several months out of the year in Colorado. The look and toastie mitt function of this custom C3 was enough to get the props turning and get me aboard.  It is absolutely stunning in person, the feel and fit are perfect and I really like the addition of contrast taping on this one.  Size is a modified Large.  I added 1" to the length both front and rear, basically standard L measurements other than XL front and rear length measurements.

        This really came out perfect.  Looking forward to giving it some good hard wear over the next few decades.

        Off to find my scarf and goggles…

                  @budpatch Can you let me know which size you took and which size you take in IH type III's and UHF's? Trying to size one for myself and yours look like a good example to follow…

                    I'm a Large in both the type III's and the UHF's.  This vest is a Large as well, but I added an inch to the back and front length (same length as the XL measurements).

                    So happy with this, I'm sure you will be also.

                    Hope that helps!

                      That helps a ton, thanks. Looks great on you. Are you happy wearing it over just a flannel, or is it sized for heavy layering only?

                        Very cool. I have absolutely no need for that but I still love it.

                          I've been wearing my toastie over UHF's and workshirts exclusively so far.  It fits well and looks great over a shirt and is ridiculously warm and comfortable.

                          It fits snugly over my leather jacket as well, but I haven't actually worn it on the bike yet as there is too much snow.
