Introducing Panta Waistcoats / Vests..............

So after a few samples finally happy with the way these vests/waistcoats came out. I'll be offering them in various materials, from tweeds to cashmeres with prices in the same range as jcrew, bookster etc. They are a slim cut, long enough to cover your belt (in the front) and are lined in the same royal oxford fabric as my pants (and made by the same people). Its a cut that should work for both MC and streetwear denizens.

I only had a few made of this particular fabric, both to test the waters and also because I am having a trunk show in NYC in a month or so and plan on having a bunch of different fabrics then. This is a vintage Reid and Taylor houndstooh tweed, about 15-17 ounces. It's a really gorgeous fabric (I am having a sportcoat of it made), sturdy but not rough. The vest features 7 horn buttons (future models will have 6), side split/vent, self fabric belt in back with brass buckle and 4 pockets. Price is $139 (site prices will be $149-$179), shipped worldwide.
