Commonly called waistcoats, the vest has been a staple of mens wardrobe for centuries. In the victorian era, shirts were basically considered undergarments and a man dared not be seen in "bare shirtsleeves" by anyone other than his wife or close family. Not all Victorian fashion was somber-toned; wearing a brightly-hued waistcoat (and/or tie) was the manner in which a gentleman added a touch of lively color and personality to his ensemble.A fancy silk, satin or velvet vest is ideal for more formal affairs such as a wedding, gala, or ball. For a professional gentleman a more tightly buttoned old fashioned vest woven from wool in tweed, houndstooth or plaid design will be excellent. For a working man, a durable vest is required. One made of cotton or leather would last for many wearings.L,M,S,XL,XS,XXL,XXXLFolk-customKnitted Fabric
