This is what happens when you DON'T order a size up!
It wasn't as structured as I thought it would be. In the picture it is fit, straight, and sturdy/rigid looking. It’s advertised as “light weight slim fit.” When I got it in a bag though I was surprised that the vest has a heavy and thick wool lining and the pics advertised don’t show the lining visibly. So two main issues:
1. Too bulky. The wool lining makes the vest feel bulky and not flattering whatsoever. The side panels are great but the small of the back area is too bulky if you have a small waist as it doesn’t flatter the back.
2. The shoulder to shoulder width is too short. Not made for normal medium size. Seems to be made for petite/ short waist folks.
3. Short length. It’s not a long inseam. Seems to be made for petite/ short waist folks.
I normally wear a size Medium and realized now that I should have ordered a Large. if you do order from them. Order a size up. I requested a return but I’m sure I would have to pay the shipping. I think the Large might be too big but we’ll see.
