Size is not the issue for me..... I'm 6' even , and weigh 178 lbs. this morning.....Fits fine, room to spare ....Pocket configuration just was not as much to my liking as another vest I use most of the time....
So there is a chance he might still be a good fit 20 years from now.....
We don't all have to change into 3XL's, Heck, as I remind my M.D. all the time, I still wear the same size Levi's I did when I graduated from High School.....that usually slows down the lecture about my lifestyle that he is prone to give me occasionally.

It should be in the Mail to Maine tomorrow.....

I have an old Filson shelter cloth hunting coat that I wear--on those rare occasions when I don't just layer clothes under a vest. Shelter cloth is more "wearer friendly" than the famous Filson tin cloth. Basically, it feels very much like the material used in military shelter halves, for those of you who have experience with those. Not waterproof, but then no strap vest is going to help you much in that regard.
