Rich, it has been years since I have found anything worth buying at our Indianapolis Eddie Bauer or Banana Republic. Both companies have seemed to move away from the gear I like.

We always stop at the Gander Mountain in Duluth on our way to Canada. I have found some good and long vests at this store. We have a local chain in Indianapolis, Gallans (spelling) that does a good job.

The biggest single problem I find is lack of length. If carrying IWB, it may not matter, but at just 6', I like my vest to fall a full 8" below my belt.

Sorry I misquoted you. GLV
