Wasn't sure what to expect, but here's my honest take. Having six outer pockets makes this a lot more functional than I expected.

Just got this vest and here are my thoughts. Whoever put this vest together did careful work on the seams. I like that it has a button closure, it's easy to use one-handed. This exceeded my expectations, highly recommend it.

The cut is flattering and the M I got fits comfortably through the shoulders. Couldn't be happier with this purchase, five stars from me.

I picked this up for my husband and they've been wearing it a lot. I ordered my usual size M and it fit true to size. Overall a solid vest, just a couple of minor nitpicks keep it from a perfect score.

This was my first order from the brand. I was impressed by how solid the leather feels once it arrived. Loved the brown shade, it's rich and doesn't look washed out. Great vest overall, I've already recommended it to a friend.

The brown colorway looks even better in person than in the photos. Just got this vest and here are my thoughts. Overall I'm really happy with this vest, would buy again. I sized up to M and now it fits perfectly over a sweater. You can tell the leather is a step above the usual fast-fashion stuff. I like that it has six outer pockets, very practical for everyday use.

It's fine. Not amazing, not bad, just middle of the road. Not thrilled with the leather quality, it feels a bit thin. A button closure does the job, nothing fancy about it. I get compliments on the brown color all the time.

It has six outer pockets, which is standard but useful. The brown is a bit different in person than in the pictures, but still nice. Really good purchase, would still recommend despite a small gripe or two.

The overall design looks even better than the online photos. It arrived well packaged and in perfect condition.

The style looked a bit different in person than I pictured. It has six outer pockets, though the depth could be better. Very disappointed with this vest, would not recommend.

I picked this up for my son and they've been wearing it a lot. Sizing runs a touch large in my opinion, so keep that in mind. A button closure does the job, nothing fancy about it. Good vest for the price, not perfect but close.

Build quality feels solid, no wonky stitching anywhere. This exceeded my expectations, highly recommend it.

I picked this up for my father-in-law and they've been wearing it a lot. Sizing was spot on, the M fits exactly like the chart said. Happy with this overall, just wish a couple of small things were better.
