@Luijim78 looks freaking rad!
I need to end last conf-call of the day and I'm off to pick it up from the UPS

[Luijim78]

@Karol yes really very nice and comfortable, I'm very happy as soon as you can post some photos of yours, good evening my friend

[Karol]

[Luijim78]

@Karol really gorgeous my friend

[Karol]

@Luijim78 It has really exceeded my expectations. I'm thinking about grabbing Indigo/navy while they are still in my size.

[Luijim78]

@Karol haha I'm thinking about it too

[Karol]

@Luijim78 Great minds think alike

Thanks to @JoshC and @Graham for your help with finding the right vest for me. I'm happy with how it worked out. It looks quite trim fitting in the photos, but doesn't feel restricting at all. The length is just what I was aiming for. Sizing advice in the vest thread from @neph93 was really helpful too. I tried some double wabby for fun. I mean, I'm already pairing tassel loafers with this get up so why not!

[JoshC]

@krebsy ooooo that double Wabash combolooking good. Glad your happy mate was a pleasure to get you sorted out.

This is a rather serious question - I am in no need for persuasion as I bought the damn thing anyway. And I am not fishing for compliments...
But the wife thinks I might be a vest guy after all. So - am I?

[cityofdelusion]

I feel like I know what @neph93 would say about this...

[Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot]

@tody looks champ! How do you feel in it?

[ARNC]

@tody looks like you’ve found a new way to empty your wallet! However, if Mrs Tody is on board, there’s always the potential to sneak in a couple of shirts that “would look perfect” with whatever vest she thinks you should get next with minimal resistance.

[Aetas]

There is only one answer… your wife is right @tody !
Looks ace as an advocate vest.

[jordanscollected]

@tody That work vest cut looks great on you, and the way they fit with zero restriction on the arms makes them all the better. Great pickup

[tody]

Thanks guys. I do feel reasonably comfortable, but I will need to lose a little more weight to fully embrace it.

What happened was actually quite funny. We went shopping at Kentaurus right before Christmas.
I just put on the vest to rule it out once and for all. About that time my wife said, much to my surprise, it would suit me.
This week she kept on bugging me whether I bought it yet... So i went there and got it.

[jordanscollected]

If it fits tight, You should try it over a neat fitting t-shirt and under an open button-up. It's how I plan to wear my Indigo version.

[tody]

It fits great. In the photo, I wear a thermal under that chambray.
What I dislike is having just a little too much belly so the lower ends of the vest are too far away from the belt…

[jordanscollected]

the extra belly is something deal with too. I just say fuck it.

I just say fuck it.

The older I get, the more often I tend to say this
