New Jersey Piper
Seth: Based on Mark's (MacBean) pointer and Seanachie's comments, I bought a green vest with green plastic buttons from NewJerseyPiper.com. By the way, they have at least 6 different types of buttons from which one can choose.
I experienced a bit of natural, but as it turns out, unwarranted concern about the fit and quality, because the prices were so reasonable (from $32 to $44). The vest came today and it is great! It fits me as if it were made-to-measure, but I may have gotten lucky on that. I am a 44 chest size, but the vest label has "L" on it. So for me, I suppose the fit was a fortuitous coincidence. The vest does not have an adjustment strap.
The vest is 100% polyester The green outer material looks and feels like a wool/polyester blend and the black inside liner has a shiny and smooth satin look and feel. It matches the green in my Hunting kilt and blends well with the other fall/winter like colors. Can't wait to wear it!
Obviously, I can't speak for its durability only having tried it on, but it looks very well cut and sewn. It tapers into my waist and then back out again at the hips. The 5 buttons and holes are well sewn and placed. There are two exterior pockets and 4 interior pockets in which you could carry a lot of small contraband. :-)
Tim's service was excellent and gets an A rating from me.
I changed my signature. The old one was too ridiculous.
