As someone who thrifted an olive fishing vest earlier this year and fell in love w it, I'd say yay! I like the color of this one too. Looks solid

Just to tag on to this post, I’m pretty new to caring much (or at all) about clothes but fly fishing is a big part of my life and I’d be curious to see examples of the fishing aesthetic outside of actual fishing

PTO had an article on 'em a few years back (https://putthison.com/light-vests-okay-layer-or-unarmed-slobbery/) I think they look best when you buy a more fashion-forward vest, maybe from a brand like Carhartt WIP or EG

It’s more like vintage fishing vests look like items made by Engineered Garments with all of the pockets and stuff. Folks aren’t really wearing other fishing gear along with them

I really like the utility aspect to these

The Utility Vest
After writing about wide leg pants and wearing white socks with shorts, I bring you the next move in grandpa style: the utility vest.

i say go for it! I've got a vintage one that I mostly just wear when I'm doing outdoorsy stuff like birding but it's pretty easy to style imo. love all of the pockets.

here's how i've worn it

I prefer ones that are relatively cropped like the one I'm wearing since I think it makes for some fun layering but I also really liked this snow peak one from a while back https://www.milleworld.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/snow-peak.jpg

Yeah this is kinda how I'm feeling, in a good way. Dont feel the need to get one that was specifically designed as a fashion garment, repurposing is far more fun

I don’t know that I’m ready to go full-on vest yet but I really regret not buying one of the Engineered Garments “shoulder vest” bags that came out a couple years ago

my friend's got one of those, it's such a good piece

The only one I can find currently is $240 on eBay and I can’t justify that cost. Pain
jonrisk
jonrisk16mo ago
surely it wasn't much less than that brand new though right I mostly joke yeah, it looks like it was about $200

It wasn’t, I’ve just become spoiled by sales and resale prices.
