<p>[QUOTE="J Dagger, post: 4273829, member: 10944"]Man y’all are great. Such a wide range of knowledge. I had no idea you could tell the sex an article was meant for based on the side of the buttons. I bought a lot of men’s and a lot women’s clothing from an estate. I thought this was part of the men’s lot but wasn’t totally sure. There was one or two for sure early 20th c articles then a couple things a bit later. Wasn’t sure where this one fell. I’m actually not positive exactly how vests are supposed to fit as I’ve worn one exactly once, at my senior prom. Where exactly should the bottom of the vest sit on a mans body? I guess I should get an idea of the size based on how it fits me. I don’t see any manufacturers tags so it could be a home sewn item. It does seem nicely made to me. The back has some small imperfections but the front is very nice.</p><p>M</p><p>Sounds like some good times SBVC! My family was never into dressing fancy.
