Sizing Tips

We want to help you select your correct size when you order. Please read the following carefully as we have listed important tips to help you make the right choice.

How To Measure Your Chest Accurately

You will need a cloth measuring tape (do NOT use a carpenters measuring tape [the metal ones]). If you only have a carpenters tape, just use a string and measure the string when finished.

Put on a shirt. Relax your arms to the side and have someone use a string to wrap around the fullest part of your chest. See the image to the right for reference.

When wrapping the string around the chest, do not pull tight; but do not leave loose either; just pull the slack to make sure you get an accurate measurement. Mark the string with a marker (So you know exactly the length to measure with the measuring tape).

Use a tape measure to measure the string. This is "your chest" measurement. Use this measurement when viewing the sizing charts. The sizing charts will say "YOUR CHEST".
Larger riders need to do the same thing for the fullest part of their stomach. and use whichever is bigger as your chest measurement.

FYI:
-Add 2 inches to your measurement if you prefer a baggy / loose fit.
-Add 2 inches to your measurement if you plan to carry a concealed weapon.
-If you prefer a loose fit AND you plan to carry, just add 2 inches total (do not combine).

How to Measure Vest Length

If you have a vest at home, then you can use that vest to help decide how long to make the length on your new custom vest.back length

Lay your current vest face down on a table and measure straight down the center of the back panel.

Start at the top center of the vest on the collar seam (do not include the collar).

Measure straight down the center of the back panel to the bottom edge of the vest.

This is the vest length. See the image for reference.
