      Simmons Bilt have some lovely vests in their Outlet analog. Almost all too small for me but very well prices. The horsehide ones are amazing though.

      And then there’s this from Kurt Chen’s IG. Absolutely sublime.

        Forever indebted to @UnTucked  for providing me with the opportunity to own and wear this outrageous bit of kit, and to @Giles Padmore for standing two meters away from me as I was deciding about it and saying «If you don’t take it you’re a tosser».

            It is certainly changing. The leather is pretty special and the way the indigo leaves it is obviously totally unlike denim. I love it even though it is a little small for me.

              I wouldn't say it's small for you… You're just limited on what you can wear it with. But all in all, it looks damn good on you, Bro! Glad you're enjoying it!!!

                This is how I would have chosen to wear it regardless, just over a tee… Looking forward to warmer temps as being able to use it as a middle layer between a tee and a denim jacket or shirt is one of my all time favourite combinations.

                  Guess this will evolve beautiful @neph93 ….  the color of the leather is absolutely  "Indigo" compatible.
                  Enjoy, and wear it in good health!

                        Nice! I like them both, but the IH is much more refined. Good job!

                              The IH vest is just too good - and I’m not even a vest-kind-of-a-guy (or that’s what I thought).

                              Perfect evo on the Samurais as well. 😎

                                  I obviously need to wear my leather vest more, lol!

                                  Maybe it will bring me out of my current rut of wearing the same 5 shirts and pants over and over….

                                      I imagine some would sell via the same route as the C-3 jackets
