Need a good waistcoat/vest (w/o spending $$$$$)

[Geoff Gander]

Hi all,

I've got a nice TM Lewin navy blue suit (Newmarket model) that sees regular use. It's not top of the line, but it's a step up from what I used to have so I'm happy enough for now. Now, I like 3-piece suits, and I've found that TM Lewin makes a matching waistcoat for my suit - but the sticker price is a bit steep IMO (£80), considering what I'm getting (Pakeman only charges £10 more).

So my question is, does anyone know where I can get a decent 100% wool, navy herringbone waistcoat for less, or am I going to have to bite the bullet on this one?

Thanks,

Geoff

If you want it to match, you will have to buy from Lewin.

Either get the one that matches exactly, or get a contrasting waistcoat, do not get one that almost matches...

Point taken - thanks!
