That vest was really cool but very lightweight. Nothing like Hh's Natal, which used to be mine. That thing is made from 4-5oz hide. Very soft, easy to wear but monstrously heavy.

so monitor to ton to hh? Now that’s keeping it in the family lol
I guess you are probably right. Lots of people are debating the average height of people in the 50s. Please however keep in mind that I am barely 5'6 and the sleeve length also fit and this is not a regular cut but still only 24.5" according to my measurement.It looks pretty long on the photo. Reminds me of LW. I mean, considering most of the regular 40's are like 23-24" back, Long should be 26", I think? Shame about the pants. Man, I'd live in those things. It's still my dream to find those perfect ones that I actually would wear. But that's a really cool jacket, something special you got there.
I do t think I’ll be seeing this untilGet excited!
I am also expecting a delivery today. All the way from Dundee in Scotland to south Louisiana in 4 days.
The half price Himel x HTC from Papa Nui Cap Co finally came in from Australia. Arms are a bit fat on me but maybe I just need to lift some weights. Shoulders are near perfect and chest might be a bit roomy, but again, I'm in skinny mode. It's a pretty cool piece. been waiting for over a month for shipping LOL.
Secondhand board racer with August collar in brown Vicenza arrived.
Sleeves are longer than advertised :/
Aside from potentially dealing with shortening the sleeves, do y’all think the body fit on the back will relax with wear? Looks too long for my build because of how trim the cut is, but not sure how Vicenza break in might affect it.
Thanks!!! I hope so. I'll give it some time before deciding whether or not I want to alter the sleeves. I'm sure your Himel is going to be siiiickGreat find! Needs some break-in to better adopt to your body. Will look perfect with some wear!

I work at a mail order company and have been watching our USPS shipments closely. Around 1/3 are running heavily delayed. Many end up sitting in some of the transit points for close to a week before moving. Everything I've shipped eventually gets through but for now one must expect a good chance of significant delays.
Yeah I agree. TBH I don’t even really care. Weather is superb and cold stuff a plenty in the fridge.I work at a mail order company and have been watching our USPS shipments closely.
