Oooh, this looks the winter vest I've been after.

[AdamJ]

@GC. Do it! They are so lovely and warm it's remarkable.

[GC]

@AdamJ Indeed, I am tempted…

I'll need to compare the sizing to the N1 deck jacket, for which my indigo 'M' is spot on!

Aside from the Ivory, are you planning on other colourways? Olive/Khaki?

[Giles]

We will make other colourways in the future, but everything that we are making for FW20 is here:

What are Ollie's measurements?

What are Ollie's measurements?

May not be easily available. He isn’t an IHUK employee but a friend of the brand and sometime model. Doesn’t live in Gosport as far as I know.

Ah gotcha. I usually wear L or XL, usually just go off the measurements of course but I've never tried an IH vest. 23.1 seems pretty big for the chest measurement, so I don't think I'd need to go any bigger than an L. I usually aim for 22 but I don't think I'd want it to be any shorter, plus 23 might be nice for layering. Thinkin' bout it!

Unless you are planning on wearing it over something really big then go L. I have the jacket in XL and take shirts in XL. The jacket goes comfortably over layers. I’d be L in this over a hoodie or shirt.

Awesome! Thank you

Thanks, @Alex! That's awesome, he's pretty much my exact measurements, except I'm an inch taller and maybe a little smaller in the chest. Exact same weight. Good reference for the future!

Hey guys. Was there a previous iteration of this vest in black? Or am I imagining things?

Here's the deal, I picked this up last week. I've never worn a vest before. I was thinking that I could use this to prolong denim jacket season. I like it a lot but I'm not sure of the furry collar on me. Looking for some fit pics for inspiration while I decide whether to keep it. (I'm not a fan of the look in the product shots, sorry. Vest over the white thermal isn't doing it for me…)

@setandsetting there was a different black whipcord in the past. This is the new super black whipcord. There are a view pics of people wearing the old black and navy colourways in the links below which may help you

Thanks Alex!!

[setandsetting]

I'm leaning towards keeping this. Gonna enlist the wife to get some shots of it on me today and I'll post.
