Men's Full Size Zip Up Vest Plus Size | Dark Gray / S 100400871277267

How to measure

To choose the best size, measure a vest or jacket that fits you well. Lay the garment flat on a table, zip it up, smooth out wrinkles, and measure with a soft tape. Our measurements are garment measurements (not body measurements) unless stated otherwise.

1. Chest (full circumference) — Measure 1" (2–3 cm) below the armhole from one side seam to the other. Double that number to get the chest circumference.
2. Shoulder width (back) — Measure across the back from the outer edge of one shoulder seam to the other.
3. Front length — From the high point of shoulder (where shoulder meets neck seam) straight down to the bottom hem.
4. Hem (bottom) — Measure across the bottom edge from side to side and double to get the hem circumference.
5. Armhole circumference — Wrap the tape around the arm opening at the fullest point of the armhole.
6. Fit guidance — For layering over shirts and sweaters add 2–4 inches (5–10 cm) of ease to your body chest measurement. If you are between sizes, sizing up allows comfortable layering.

Tip: Compare these garment measurements to a favorite-fitting piece. 1 inch = 2.54 cm.

Materials & construction

Material makeup can vary by color or style. Typical construction for a full‑size zip‑up vest:

• Shell: Woven polyester with a durable/repellent finish for light weather resistance.
• Insulation: Hypoallergenic polyester fiberfill (down‑alternative) or quilted batting for warmth without bulk.
• Lining: Smooth polyester taffeta or brushed polyester fleece for comfort against layers.
• Trim & ribbing: Cotton/poly or polyester/spandex blends for stretch and shape retention at the collar and armholes.
• Hardware: Durable zip closure and reinforced pocket openings for everyday use.
• Always check the garment tag or product specification for the exact fiber percentages and finishes for the specific color/style you are ordering.

Model info (for reference)

Use model details to help shoppers anticipate fit. Example references — replace with your actual model measurements if available:

• Model A (standard fit example): Height 6'1" (185 cm), chest 40" (102 cm), wearing size L.
• Model B (plus-size example): Height 6'0" (183 cm), chest 48" (122 cm), wearing size 2XL.

Note: Indicate whether the vest runs true to size or if customers should size up/down for layering. If possible, include front/back photos and a brief note about the fit (slim, regular, relaxed).

Care guide (to keep it lovely longer)

• Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with similar colors. Close the zipper before washing to protect the teeth and fabric.
• Use mild detergent; avoid bleach and fabric softeners (softeners can reduce water‑repellent finishes).
• Tumble dry low. For insulated vests, add two clean dryer balls or tennis balls to help restore loft; alternatively, reshape and lay flat to dry.
• For fleece‑lined or brushed interiors, wash inside out and tumble dry low. Avoid high heat to reduce pilling and preserve nap.
• Spot clean small stains with a damp cloth and mild soap; blot rather than rub to avoid damaging the fabric.
• Do not iron insulation. If ironing the shell is necessary, use a cool iron and a pressing cloth—check the care label first.
• Store hanging or loosely folded in a cool, dry place. Avoid long‑term compression to preserve insulation loft.
• Always follow the garment care label for the most accurate instructions.

Style tips

• Everyday casual: Layer the vest over a long‑sleeve henley, T‑shirt, or flannel and pair with jeans and sneakers for a relaxed look.
• Smart casual: Wear over a lightweight knit or button‑down and combine with chinos and boots for a polished but comfortable outfit.
• Outdoor layering: Use the vest as a mid‑layer under a heavier coat when it’s cold — it keeps your core warm without restricting arm movement.
• Color choices: Neutral shades (black, navy, gray, olive) maximize versatility; choose a brighter color to add a focal point to a neutral outfit.
• Fit advice: For roomy layering pick your normal size or one up; for a sleeker, less bulky silhouette choose your usual size and layer thinner garments.
• Accessories: Add a scarf, beanie, or a leather watch to complete the look; match footwear tone to your belt or jacket for cohesion.
