Tuney Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 I know a few of you ride O'Neill vests so I thought I would query you guys. I am looking to order Gooru but I've never had an Oneill vest before so I need some help. I have like a 42" chest based on a rough measurement... I fit a medium in my current vest but I've never had an Oneill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller skiron07 Posted October 13, 2009 Baller Share Posted October 13, 2009 they run considerably smaller than most, possibly with the exception of eagle...but you might try an XL to start; I have a 44" and wear an XXLgood luck- pullovers might differ somewhat- check on that first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller jdarwin Posted October 13, 2009 Baller Share Posted October 13, 2009 Go w/ a large. The Gooru's expand. I wear a 46" suit and use an XL - fits fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller robscholl-OF Posted October 13, 2009 Baller Share Posted October 13, 2009 I have two vests, one for summer and another for winter.  I use large for summer (Wear nothing under it) XL for winter, for obvious reasons.OF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller lakeaustinskier Posted October 13, 2009 Baller Share Posted October 13, 2009 I have a O'Neill Revenge and really like it. It has an interior buckle/strap that kinda lends a little back support then the outside is a "smoothskin" style of vest (no exposed buckles/straps). I bought it from Tadd at H2O.

Chad_Scott Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 Skip the ONeil Gooru, It will stretch out on less than a season, if you like the pullover vest check out the Eagle vest at www.eaglesports.com. They will hold up and not get strectched out in less than a season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller thager Posted October 13, 2009 Baller Share Posted October 13, 2009 Chad, I am looking for an eagle nautique vest in XL. Know of any out there? Would love to rub MS' nose in it now that he's boatless!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tuney Posted October 13, 2009 Author Share Posted October 13, 2009 Does O'Neill really stretch out that fast? I looked at Eagle earlier and I am not sure I can find them around here. Maybe I'll just need to buy a medium and suck in for the first few sets. There has to be a point where it stops stretching - or at least slows a lot. I am really looking for something that will last longer than a season. Perhaps a zip up would stretch less as it isn't expanding much when you take it off.

Baller Edmund Posted October 13, 2009 Baller Share Posted October 13, 2009 I use the O'Neill Outlaw and love it. I wear a size 39/40 and wear a medium vest. Zip front, nice and light, flexible, but not USGC approved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
