This kind of vest has been known in the USA since the 1930s as a hunting vest. The large "game pockets" are vertically accessible to the left and right of the button placket. The vest also features three attached pockets. For a moderate width adjustment, you find a fabric bar in the back. Tellason manufactures the vest from Genoa corduroy produced by the German company Kindermann which is specialised in work clothing. In order to cut down on intercontinental transportation, Tellason has the vests manufactured by a partner firm in northern Italy.A reminder:The vest has been washed once, so it won’t shrink any more.Tellason. Highest Quality from California. Behind Tellason, based in San Francisco, are Tony Patella and Pete Searson. Both bring a fair amount of experience to the table: Before they started their own business a few years ago, they had already spent two decades in the clothing industry as made-to-order clothing manufacturers. Since then, they have made a good name for themselves with their brand. Inspired by found pieces from the working world, they create particularly authentic garments. When making up garments, they like to use tried and tested fabrics, especially textiles full of character, for example, denim from Japan or weaves used for guild clothing from Germany.General product information Men's corduroy vest, Light brown | Manufactum
