I ordered this vest last Friday evening, and I just received it about half-an-hour ago... today is late afternoon the following Thursday. I requested FREE standard shipping, it shipped from Santa Monica, LaLa Land, and arrived in Honolulu less than a week later. Not too shabby, IMHO! My jaw dropped upon removing the product from its packaging. Boyz & girlz... this leather vest is the real deal!!! First impression: the softness yet obvious durability of the leather, as well as the weight of the garment. It is definitely heavy duty... and I be liking me some of that! The stitching is meticulous and flawless. I love the orange inside back lining... soft and smooth as satin. The side hand warmer pockets are large and deep... and unnoticeable, which I really like! The inside gun pockets... yup!, that’s plural... there are two hidden gun pockets!... they blow me away (pun definitely intended!). I live in Hawaii where carrying... much less owning... a firearm is practically illegal, so I won’t be utilizing these pockets for their intended purpose, but I love the concept. Damn! This vest makes me want to run down to Cycle City and buy me a dadgummed Harley!!! I love this thing, and I have only possessed it for less than two hours! Can certainly understand why real biker dudes go for this vest...I'm normally an XL but after reading previous reviews I went with the XXL and glad I did. Good quality vest and a good price.A truly beautiful old world work of Craftsmanship all 6 pockets are roomy with great functionality. Love that the 2 inner pockets have snap buttons and built-in concealed carry holders + clip holders . The 2 hand pockets in the front are nice and roomy as well. Fits me perfectly and who doesn't love the fresh smell of genuine quality leather. No cons to this amazing vest at all. I will definitely order from Milwaukee Leather again for a Biker Jacket as well come winter time. Worth every penny!Well made thick leather. Front pockets should at least an inch wider and cloth liner replaced with leather for derringer retrieval.Also it has zippers in the interior lining allowing for patches to be applied without stitching removal.I'm happy with it. Not made in the USAThe vest is outstanding. Really enjoy wearing it. Very good value...would recommend it.MUCH NICER THAN I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE!Super nice quality, heavy, thick soft leather. Perfect fit. Chart said 2x was a 48 chest. Dead nuts. I can not beilive them quality of this peice at the price. Have been wanting to buy a nice vest for myself for a long time. Glad I waited for this vest. Now my wife wants one.I bought this for my husband as a gift. He was soooooo happy. Fit like a dream. Does have an adjuster on the side which he could cinch up. It is a well made productThe original color inside looked like red, but it is orange - that was the only disappointment.we git this for a gift for our co=pastor at church and he loved it! it's a very nice leather vest!I read the reviews on this vest, and they were excellent, but I still wasn't prepared for how amazing this vest is!! The quality, weight of leather, suppleness, attention to detail, quality of stitching, and extremely good design are incredible. I'm wearing my new vest as I write this!The smell of quality leather is something that I appreciate, and this vest has it in spades.There's just SO MUCH good stuff here - even to the degree of making it possible to sew on patches WITHOUT having to take apart the lining (zippers and other access), unlike any other vest I've owned.My wife says it looks great on me, too - and that's important!!This vest is very well made and also very well priced. I am throughly impressed with the quality and comfortAbsolutely top quality. Fits as expected. 6' 195 lbs and large is perfect. Couldn't ask for nicer leather. This is my second product from this brand. You will not be disappointed.One of the best letter product I've seen on the market in quite a while.Good quality. A “bikers” style, not what I was looking for. Also, I had to return as the sizing is small.
