What size and fit should I look for when buying a classic linen vest from lc-waikiki?
Check the size chart and measure your chest to pick the right size, ensuring the shoulders sit cleanly and there’s enough room for light layering underneath. The vest should skim the torso without pulling at the buttons or seams. If you’re between sizes, opt for the larger size to maintain comfortable movement while preserving a neat silhouette.
