    My husband wears a size XL :) Since it doesn’t get all that cold down here in Southwest Georgia, vests are actually the perfect option through most of the winter. We both spend a lot of time outdoors and quail hunt, and Wheat loves to deer, duck, dove and all other forms of hunting, basically. But this vest looks like it would be perfectly at home by the fire pit in the back yard! Thanks for introducing me to a great new company.
