Men’s Historical Vests
Whether you’re a cowboy or a city dweller, there’s something classy about a vest that just fits, so to speak. These handmade men’s vests are carefully crafted by Maggie using a tiny, antique Singer Featherweight sewing machine. They are all styles that were popular back in the days of the mid-1800’s through 1900, and are so timeless that we think they deserve a comeback.
