Vest Hunting

[DamnthePants]

Im shopping for a good, unique, style of Vest.

I would really like a Chieftan Vest, I like the wya it looks, with the buttons and the shoulder flares, and the little thing that come down on the side. Its really nice. The only problem is that Ive only found 2 places that sell them. Scotsweb and Heritige of Scotland, both of them are a wee bit pricy for me to just grab them with out first getting some other opinions.

Does anyone have any suggestions? Im really looking for something that just, pops, and will leave a lasting impression on people when I wear it.

There is a similar jacket - well, a little bit similar - with detachable sleeves, sometimes called a SWORDSMAN's JACKET. Here is one on eBay:

The dollar is very strong against the pound, but it looks like it will cost you about $175 delivered. I leave it to others to comment on this seller, or this style, neither of which is familiar to me.
