Men's Medieval Sleeveless Waistcoats Costume Renaissance Victorian Waistcoats Vests

Product is perfect for my dark elf cosplay. I ordered a medium and I'm 5'8" 180lbs. The fit is great! The laced strings on each side (you have to leave them yourself) allow for adjustable sizing to some degree. The string tips do seem to fray easily as you thread but not a HUGE problem. The strings are crazy long though! I could tie them together behind my back after having them laced on the sides. Fabric is somewhat stretchy and forgiving which is nice and comfortable. "Leather" pads aren't real (obviously) but they do give a good aesthetic nonetheless. Product was delivered to the middle of the US by the very beginning portion of the estimated shipping window.

I'm a wide, but short woman, so I was worried that it wouldn't fit my body. The Large fit perfectly, completely cinching up the sides, so I should've sized down to leave gaps. My waist is 44", and hips wider, and i'm 5'3". So if you're much taller, the shirt will come further up also. Very beautiful, soft and stretchy suede material. The leather is semi-shiny. I got so many compliments on it! In the photos I wore it for my Thor costume; underneath I'm wearing an athletic sweat wicking long-sleeve, but you can wear it on it's own, because it's quite comfortable. The laces tend to come undone after long wear, but can be easily reached and tied up again.

For under $30 USD, this was a good buy. It's not fancy so if you want something nicer or realistic looking you are either going to need to pay more or get crafty. The shiny parts are very clearly a vinyl and VERY shiny, not faux leather or anything like that so you may want to rough them up a bit. With that being said, it's comfortable with a good weight (not too light, not too heavy) and I think it will make a good base for the project I am working on.

Fits as expected, but the faux leather is too soft and flexible to be convincing. Lacing is difficult and the metal eyelets for the lacing are just barely set, I popped one out easily trying to lace it.

As other reviewers have noted, there's a really strong smell to it. The lacing is a little difficult to get done, and you'll have to pull it tight to have any chance of this looking good. The front panels, however, don't really look as good as the picture implies - they look cheap, vinyl-like, and not like part of the costume, more like a late addition. Overall, its not a bad piece for the price, but not as great as I was expecting.

Super vinyl'ly. Just like others have pointed out. They also didnt roll the edges before sewing it on so the white shows. But I am just going to rough it up, rub some dirt on it and make it work.P.S. you can find it cheaper on wish. ;-)

We were a little worried it wouldn’t be GOT enough but when it arrived, we’re pleasantly surprised. It’s stretch so it can be tightened or loosened. You’ll need shorts with it, unless you’re just that comfortable. It’s also flexible enough to make several different costume variations so I am sure we’ll use it again. Fast shipping is always a favorite too!

I really like that it laces up the side; it really helps with sizing and the chart feels accurate. It fits nice and the faux leather is very soft. The black plates on the front are a shiny vinyl, but they aren't any shiny then waxed leather. Honestly it is great for a quick Ren faire, cosplay, or Halloween tunic. It isn't very boxy so it looks like it fits more naturally.

Yo creo que todas las reseñas negativas han sido por los de otros colores que no son puro negro, supongo que por la calidad del vinyl de color. Yo mido 1.75m cuerpo promedio y pedí una grande y me queda perfecto! Lo pedí en negro y tanto la tela como el vinyl o “cuero falso” también es grueso y de muy buena calidad. Lo compré para un disfraz de sith y la verdad me encanta.
