I have never owned a vest, but I am vest-curious... :icon_laughing:

I know BI63 and RK... yall have them. Educate me on the use of them. That may should stupid to you, but I honestly don't understand the use of them. I have a few patches on my denim jacket and most of them are just patches that my wife and kids gave me because they liked them. There is one patch I want to get... the american flag with words under it saying "try burning this one"... I thought that one was cool.

A vest is a way a biker declares his homosexuality. I don't have one.

I personally wear the vest to keep my back warm, it is just another layer of protection against the wind. I don't have any patches on any of my clothing. I have some pins on the epilets of one of my jackets I got way back when i first started. I like the vest because it has 3 pockets - one for the cell, one for keys and one for the camera.
There are a few patches over the years I liked but my favorite of all time is the most classic:

Gas - Grass - OR Ass
NO ONE RIDES FOR FREE!!

So you see some use to it besides the appearance. The vest extenders are for wearing over another jacket? In the south, if it offered some protection, I could see it as a alternative to a mesh jacket... I suppose your arms would not get protected, but the chest and back would.

Those are nice. I like the holster in the vest... nice touch.

Yeah BI those were some cool vests - I liked the holster too.
The one with the collar would be something, Keep some sun off the back of my neck.
Good find.
