Here is one of the more innovative and distinctive pieces put out by Engineered Garments in the past few seasons, the combi-vest. It's a reversible knit vest that can also be unfolded and worn as a wrap/skirt in a contrasting color. I'm forced to admit I've only ever styled it as a vest, but it's still quite striking and versatile in that role; it works as either a conventional, cozy knit vest, or a bright contrast piece to go under, say, a neutral-colored corduroy or tweed blazer.

I purchased this piece new from Bodega, and have worn it maybe 10-15 times. It's in excellent condition - clean, free of wear, and with basically no visible pilling (which, I know, can sometimes be a problem with these EG sweater-knit pieces when purchased used). I'm asking $130 for this item, shipped in the continental US. (International shipping is also possible - please contact me for details.)

Measurements are tough because of the double-layered knit, but my best attempts are as follows. Should fit roughly TTS for an EG size L.

pit-to-pit: 21.5"
shoulders: 16"
length: 26"
