I also find the milestone vests to be a flattering cut. Mine fits well at the top, is shaped to accommodate a bit of abdominal girth, and, unlike the t-shirts, isn't too long. And the current ones are a really nice lightweight material.

Useful to know. Thanks, Vrap. Might consider a milestone t-shirt some time soon.

Thanks all. I might order a 100 vest (as I never liked the 100 t-shirt). I can wear another t-shirt underneath for the 49 Saturdays a year the Scottish weather is sub-optimal for it :-)

My 50 T-shirt is an odd material and I don’t like it. My 100 is very flimsy and long. Don’t like it

I hit 200 next time out but have another 50 to go until I can try the next milestone T-shirt.

I hardly wear the t-shirts because of the length. Too long to wear as t-shirts, not long enough to put a belt round and wear as tunics. My 250 milestone garment, due to land in February or March next year, will be a vest.

I couldn’t quite hear yesterday but they announced a milestone for someone who did edinburgh#1. Yesterday was event 684 and they said 598 of his runs were at Edinburgh, I assume he is on 600, but could be 650.

@AndyS great news well done.
My first two milestones were way too long and not very flattering as almost cover my shorts.
For my 100 I got a boys aged 11/12 and it’s a nice fit.
