Update to my earlier review: the zipper failed after a little over a month of use. Stormy Krmer sent me a mailing label for return and said they would repair it. That's good customer service.

My second ironwood vest I love them they are dressy and comfortable great for layers in the cool days but it hot in nursing facilities.

I really like the fit, cut, design of this vest! My one wish is that it was offered in the 26oz 100% wool like the Button Vest!
I’m 5’11” 155#’s ( very slim). Usually wear medium. This vest was snug in midsection and the arm holes were overly large bowing out some away from the chest. I’m waiting for a large exchange. Quality and style are top notch. Excellent conservative tasteful appearance.
I loved the Stormy Kromer button vest, which is thick and warm, all wool. This is a wool/nylon blend and it's much thinner fabric. It's sized to fit closely. I'm 6-2 210 and a large tall is a very close fit, which is what I wanted. It looks great--we'll see how it wears. The zipper is rough in action and wants to stick. Maybe it will wear-in over time. Giving it 4 stars in comparison to the button vest which is a full five star
I’m 6’2” - 235lb old hockey player in decent condition. This vest fits like a glove. Great quality. (It’s my 2nd from SK) ??
Excellent quality and comfortable.Love the color it blends nicely with the tree line also bought the hat to match the vest. It’s still quite warm still here, but the cold weather is right around the corner and I’m pretty sure the vest will keep me warm. The vest fits me well not too tight over a fleece sweatshirt. I had the vest on last week when it was in the mid 30’s cold rain and snow my upper body was toasty only my arms were a little cold. I’m looking to buy the Compass Shirt Jack to wear under the vest to keep me even warmer in January and February.
Purchased the Ironwood vest in a large because my other Komer vests were larges. This one runs extremely tight in the middle , I wear a 36” waist and I can’t even zip it. Very disappointed in the slim sizing. Now I have to pay again to ship it back. Won’t buy Stormy Komer again, unless I can try it on. ~ Hi Tom, We're sorry your vest didn't work out. Our Ironwood Vest does run a little slimmer fitting vs some of our other vests. We hope you give us another chance in the future to find something you enjoy more. SK~
