I'm 6'1" 205 lbs and wear an XL in most garments,I wanted to make sure this would fit over a heavyweight sweatshirt or over a heavy wool shirt with long underwear, so I went 3XL.Glad I did.Washed it in warm water long cycle to leach out the dye everyone is talking about along with a white shop rag.No color transference at all...happy about that.Did shrink a little so it's more like a 2XL plus....2 1/2 XL or something like that...doesn't matter as it's exactly the size I needed.If I go real heavy on the under layers a large frame piece will print, but a medium frame auto is fine.I'd buy it again.Go a size up, minimum is my best advice.

Listen. If you are getting it for the g*n pocket, dont.I carry a shoulder holster with it and can get to it in a time of need way more efficiently than the pocket. But I didn’t get it for that. I ride motorcycles and sometimes, although I dont recommend it, I ride in short sleeves because of how dang humid and hot it is where I am at. This is usually not the best idea, but if Im gonna do it id rather have an extra layer of protection on my torso. So I got this vest. It isn’t rated or anything and will most likely tear up on the road, BUT it is definitely better than just a T shirt. The fit is good. Im 180, 5’10… and wearing a Medium. Waste is 32’ and it fits just right.

This is a heavy weight, heavy duty blue jean vest with some good heft to it, with two large inside pockets left and right for concealed carry or even a good sized tablet. The left inside pocket for right hand concealed carry, is quite large and spacious with two snap closures and heavy duty elastic bands to hold a semi-automatic pistol and extra ammo cartridge. It also holds my S&W J-Frame revolver perfectly. The blue jean material was initially a slightly 'dirty' blue - but not dark like black, as opposed to the crisp clean blue of new blue jeans that aren't heavily faded - but part of that I think was the heavy dye used. Prior to washing in the machine, I first soaked the jacket in a deep plastic tub, and the dye from both the blue jean and orange liner material leached out into the tub. I soaked and changed the water quite a few times over 24 hours until the water ran clear. The washing instructions say to not use bleach, but in my final few rinsing's I added a capful or two of bleach to the water without damage to the jacket or liner while turning the jacket over and over, with the result of a ever so slightly faded look and a cleaner blue jean color. Definitely soak this vest a good while before machine washing it. It fits true to size as mine was a medium which I always wear, but I could have gone up one size despite being within the chart for chest measurement. If you're between sizes or working on a 'slight' beer belly, go up one size base on the chest measurement chart. An excellent concealed carry vest that will be a good, warm and solid combination with a heavy shirt/sweatshirt/hoody underneath it.

I’m 6’ tall 200 lbs, measured my chest at 45” so I got the extra large and it fits good. Also was able to wear it comfortably over a carhart hoodie. I was impressed with the gun pocket, it holds a full size pistol (xd9) well and at a good angle. The belly area of the vest is slightly big but makes sense once you put a pistol into the vest. I got caught in a couple of heavy rain showers on my first ride wearing the vest and did not experience black dye dripping problems like a couple of other reviewers had mentioned.

After carefully reading reviews, I decided to order. I was very pleased by the shipping, and fit. Top snap is coming loose. Will need to replace.Washed twice due to comments of color bleeding (it does) and the liner sewing came apart (see photos).It fit me and looks good, but just look for a different vest.5’ 11” 165 lbs (all in the midsection)

I saw somewhere that I should order a size or two larger depending on how I planned to wear it. I ordered a 4X since I normally wear a 2X. In the winter I'd probably wear it over a heavy shirt. My choice was correct. It fits very well. One of my concerns was whether it would cover my lower back sufficiently. It does that as well. I haven't worn it a lot yet since I sent it out to have a large patch (Veteran) sewn on the back. It's not real heavy and has a nice lining. The primary gun pocket is oriented for a right hander for those that want that. All in all it's a very nice vest. I like it. Just be aware of how you plan to wear it before you order. If it's to be an over garment, buy it larger. Have it dry cleaned instead of washing it to prevent shrinkage.

I wear a large in almost everything (jackets, shirts, etc.) I ordered a large and it fits me perfect. Im a medium build guy. If you are wanting to wear it over a jacket or something, then yes, order larger. The vest is black. Not light black, not grayish black... just black. The material has a nice weight to it. Plenty of space for patches/pins or whatever your fancy. My advice to you though is, wash it in a tub a couple times before you put your patches on. There is alot of dye in that vest, and I got caught in heavy rain while wearing it. I took it off and put it in my hard bag because I noticed black dye dripping from my hands. Some of my patches were stained, BUT, with generous application of "Shout" stain remover, I was able to get them back to their former glory. The pockets are a good size, and the gun pocket easily holds my Springfield 45. The vest is a good length for me. the bottom of it comes to the bottom of my belt buckle. Over all, great vest so far. I've had alot of compliments on it. it's stylish, yet has a rugged look to it after you wear it for a bit. It's very well put together. Thank you for reading my review. Semper Fidelis
