Shoot-Me-First Vests & Backup Sandwiches

Socks and sandals? You're a Quebecois tourist, a geezer worthy of your own Progressive commercial, or a recently released inmate if you wear socks and sandals.

Lol. I don't fit any of the above.

I agree. Went to the Duluth store in Wichita and it was apparent they are now catering to the beard oil - plaid lumberjack shirt crowd. not that those are bad folks, just not what I consider trades wear.

The last few times I've been to that store, I've found everything to be expensive and of little use to me.

Living in Central Texas, I believe I spontaneously burst into fire if I wore a vest outside of waddle and shoot, and frankly a primarily screen shotgun vest during early summer. Full summer we don't wear vests, as again, we don't want to die.

I will note, through what laughably passes as winter here I will wear lined shotgun vest and blue jean shirt under it. The pockets are lined and I am happy when walking the 1-3 dogs we have at any given time.

Yep, the light weight Magellan or similar shirts was my OWB coverage outfit. The vest might be worn to the match and then thrown in the back of the car. In 'winter' - haha - a fleece vest might serve.

Here, my -40 deg parka kind of precludes getting to a belt in 'real time'. Thus a pocket gun in the numerous parka pockets is the go to. The semi might be somewhere under the winter gear. However, my Eddie Bauer EverTherm Down Jacket works pretty well for average cold days and with a thick shirt, leaving it open is possible. You can even hoist it up with the other hand if need be.

Just came across these from Cinch.... Not sure how I feel about a CC pocket. Never tried to draw from one... but... Looks nice and "local", not "gun".

I remember they used to, but when I was over there yesterday I didn’t see any and was sad. They are definitely changing from what they once were.

It’s March.

It’s March.

In Texas. It’s summer clothes season.

We'll see what you say when the HamboVest comes out. Not one, but two sub sammiches fit in the tubluar coolerator pockets.

your most at risk on the way in to Publix...
