What is it with this soy boy fashion these days? These Peter Millar type vests have crept into business casual fashion. What is the purpose? Keep your nipples warm, but allow your arms to be cold? Enlighten me please.

I love me a nice vest over my business casual look in the spring/fall. Classic southern proper look.

Vests were the shite in the early 90's in middle school.

What type of vest? They’re not exactly a new type of clothing.

I wear one of these every day to work. Have them in several different colors to mix things up a bit.

I hate that look, but it’s been around for at least 20 years now.

Why does it bother you?


The only thing I assume about vest guys is that their dad probably has a really nice boat.

They are actually good and functional for working outside / outdoor activities when its cool. Keeps your core warm while allowing complete mobility and range of motion for your arms. Love vests.

The business casual vest is way better than the business formal vest.

I dont trust a man wearing a three piece suit for work.

Sorry baw, don't have a choice.

It is an OSHA thing, you wouldn't understand.

Could be a Terrebonne Parish thing? The Sheriff and now the new Parish President are rocking the vest.

Every time I see either one of them I think of Marty McFly.

I’m not sure what precisely you’re talking about.

But I alternate among these three highly versatile vest-styles, depending on whether I’m fighting bullies, hillbilly rednecks trying to boof my paddling mates, or savages and train robbers.







Real-life:
I wear a vest when it’s just chilly enough to warrant a little extra core insulation while leaving the arms free to breathe. It’s a subtle determination. Usually a dry, still late-fall day. It’s easier to move around in a vest too. To shoot and stab bad guys.

OP never worn a vest and it shows. I’m sure he thought this was funny. When it’s a little colder and a jacket is overkill, yes a vest is practical. Warms the core of your body and your arms by extension. Sleeves are really mostly for wind blocking so doesn’t matter with a vest. Also not all vests are Patagonia finance bro types, the Barbour and orvis twill ones are nice as hell.
