I ordered two different vests and I can't decide which one to keep. I would love to hear your opinions. A or B?

Both:

I prefer B. It seems to fit you better.

I like B. I prefer the lesser amount of buttons, and they look smoother as well.

Hi, I think B is a better fit for you. Where did you find them?

I like the 2nd one because it has less buttons and welts for pockets instead of flaps!

Definitely B. The tailoring on A near the buttons is not sleek.

I prefer A. I think it's more versatile. The buttons are nicer and the V is less deep. I also prefer the pocket positioning.

But B works well too, so whichever is more comfy is the one you should get.

I vote for A. Not sure that I can articulate why but I just responded to it better. I think it may be the buttons.

I like B, maybe because it looks cleaner?

Wow, I see I'm in the minority, but I much prefer A. I think it looks so much more crisp. But I have to admit that it could just be personal style preference - I would go for A in a heartbeat but don't care that much for the lower style of B; I don't know enough about your own style to know what's right for you!

The vests are equally comfy. I liked the look of A, but my husband said B so I wanted some more opinions. I think I will go against the majority and keep A (okay, Angie's vote counts as 8 - lol! ). Thanks again!

Mairp, I found them in a Scandinavian web shop, if you're in the US you have so many better shops to choose from. But just in case you're Scandinavian: it's Ellos.

Antje, I don't know enough about my own style either. I just found this site and I'm still experimenting and learning. This site is great!

Bigi, I know I'm late as you've already made a decision, but I prefer the cut of A too - it seems to fit you a bit smoother on the sides and the large amount of buttons seems a bit more special and stylish than B.

Thanks, Kari!

I realized this morning that it's probably too large for me. There's a belt with a buckle at the back that I tightened a lot. There's plenty of room at the chest too, usually there isn't for me. It would probably look nicer if I just got one size smaller, I'll try that. What I liked about A was the more V-shaped neckline (the other is more roundish). And (now I'll demonstrate that English is not my primary language) the flaps-thingies at the front, they are more pointy. That probably didn't make sense - lol!

Spot on, bigi. Your English is excellent! That was precisely my impression too :0)
