Product Measurements (Measurements by inches) & Size Conversion

Men's Plus Size Zip Up V-Neck Vest

How to measure

Follow these simple steps to get accurate measurements for a great fit. Use a soft measuring tape, stand naturally (or lay a similar-fitting garment flat) and measure in inches or centimeters.

1. Chest (full circumference) — Wrap the tape around the fullest part of your chest, under the arms and across the shoulder blades. Keep the tape parallel to the floor and relaxed (not pulled tight). Record the measurement.
2. Shoulder width (seam to seam) — Measure straight across the back from the outside edge of one shoulder seam to the outside edge of the other shoulder seam.
3. Center back length — From the base of the neck (where the neck meets the shoulder) at the center back straight down to the bottom hem.
4. Front length — From the top of the shoulder (near the base of the neck) at the front down to the hem (useful for judging how the V-neck will sit).
5. Armhole / Opening circumference — Measure around the armhole at its fullest point to ensure comfortable movement, or measure across the armhole seam on a laid-flat garment and multiply by two.
6. Hem (bottom) circumference — Measure around the bottom edge where the vest sits on your hips.

Measuring a garment laid flat: measure pit-to-pit (armpit seam to armpit seam) and multiply by 2 to get chest circumference; measure shoulder seam to seam and center back length from neck seam to hem.

Fit guidance (ease to add to body measurements): fitted 0–1 in / 0–2.5 cm; comfortable 2–4 in / 5–10 cm; relaxed 4–7 in / 10–18 cm. If the fabric has stretch, you can select slightly less ease.

Materials (typical for this style)

Below is a common material breakdown and what each component delivers. Check the product label for exact composition.

• Main fabric (example) — 60% cotton, 35% polyester, 5% elastane (approx.): soft and breathable (cotton), durable and colorfast (polyester), with stretch and recovery (elastane) for comfortable movement and shape retention.
• Alternative finishes — some versions may use 100% polyester (brushed fleece) for warmer, lightweight insulation or a sweater-knit blend for a more refined look.
• Trims — ribbed armhole and hem may include elastane for recovery; zipper hardware typically metal or molded plastic; placket or lining pieces often polyester for smooth zip action.
• Why it matters — cotton-blend vests feel soft and breathable; polyester improves durability and dry time; elastane adds comfortable stretch. Fabric choice affects drape, warmth, and care.

Model information

Reference fit shown on the product page:

• Model height: 6'1" (185 cm)
• Model measurements: Chest 48" (122 cm), Waist 40" (102 cm)
• Wearing size: 2XL — shows a comfortable, slightly relaxed fit with modest positive ease

If you prefer a closer fit, consider sizing down if your measurements fall within the lower end of a size range; for extra layering room, size up.

Care Guide (to keep it lovely longer)

• Close the zipper and turn the vest inside out before washing to protect hardware and fabric surface.
• Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with like colors; use a mild detergent. Avoid bleach.
• Avoid fabric softeners on performance blends — they can reduce moisture-wicking and breathability.
• Lay flat to dry or tumble dry on low; remove promptly to reduce wrinkles. High heat can shrink or damage elastane.
• Reshape while damp if the knit looks stretched. Do not hang heavy knit vests long-term — folding prevents shoulder stretch.
• Iron on low heat if needed, avoiding direct contact with zippers and trims (use a cloth between iron and fabric).
• For pilling: wash inside out, wash with similar fabrics, and use a fabric shaver or pill remover gently when needed.
• Spot-treat stains promptly with a mild detergent and cool water. For persistent stains, follow label recommendations or professional cleaning instructions.
• Store folded in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve color and fabric integrity.

Style Tips

• Smart-casual / Office: Wear over a button-down shirt (plain or subtle pattern). Zip partially to create a clean V that frames the shirt and tie, or zip fully for a sleeker look. Pair with chinos and leather shoes.
• Casual weekend: Layer over a long-sleeve tee, henley, or lightweight flannel shirt. Combine with straight-leg jeans or relaxed chinos and casual sneakers or boots.
• Layering for warmth: Use as a mid-layer under a sport coat or overcoat—adds insulation without bulky sleeves. Choose neutral tones (navy, charcoal, olive) for maximum versatility.
• Proportion tips for plus sizes: The V-neck visually lengthens the torso—leave the zipper slightly open for a vertical line. Choose a vest that sits at the hip; avoid overly long or very short hems. Darker, solid colors streamline the silhouette, while subtle texture adds interest without bulk.
• Fit advice: Ensure shoulder seams sit at the natural shoulder; avoid pulling across the chest. If between sizes, opt for the larger size for comfortable layering.
• Color pairings: Navy with light blue or white shirts; charcoal with white or burgundy; olive with tan or denim. Add a patterned shirt or pocket square for personality.
• Accessories: Leather belts, a clean watch, and low-profile shoes complete a polished look. A lightweight scarf can add warmth and draw the eye vertically.
