I ordered this exact jacket/waistcoat.

After waiting too long, I received a single-button (not the three button shown) jacket with epaulets (which I didn't want) and long lapels (which I also didn't want). Worst of all, the lining was too small by a full two inches in width and breadth at the bottom in back! The result was that when I put it on it curled up in back ridiculously. I looked like a big Scottish duck with it on.
The buttons all fell off while I was simply putting the damn thing on and taking it off while at my local tailor while trying to get it fixed. The buttons also fell off the vest on first use. Buttons, man! You'd think they could sew frikkin' buttons, fercryinoutloud!
There are other alternatives. It may not be easy to find them, but sending your money off to a Viking Technology Web site could be four hundred bucks down the drain.
Fair warning given.
