By Uncle Dub from Northport, Alabama on 10/05/2009 Pros: Attractive Design, Comfortable, Good Cut, Lightweight Best Uses: Daily Use, Going Out, Travel Describe Yourself: Casual Dresser Sizing: Feels true to size Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Nice vest. Fits well and looks good. I have received several compliments. The only downside is that it sheds a bit. I am hoping this goes away after it is worn a few times. I like to wear this with jeans or khakis. Would like to have an inside pocket.

The leather is light weight and is very comfortable to wear. It can be worn with a jacket or alone, as I will wear it most of the time. I am a vest kind of guy and this one will see plenty of use.

Golden Bear Satin Back Suede Vest for Me By bayanjim from Centreville, VA on 03/31/2009 Pros: Attractive Design, Comfortable, Good Cut, Lightweight Cons: Suede sheds a little Best Uses: Going Out, Travel, With Sportcoat Describe Yourself: Classic Dresser Sizing: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This is a beautiful vest. As with any fine suede, it should be treated with a protectant to avoid stains, and to avoid the shedding of suede particles on some shirt-materials. The fit is snug, but not tight. It is true to size, and is very elegant when worn with shirt-and-tie and a sportcoat with leather elbow patches. It is also a nice casual vest with sportshirt and jeans when left unbuttoned. Lots of compliments thusfar.
Soft and Elegant, but sheds suede partic By accordionjim from Centreville, Virginia 20120 on 03/22/2009 Pros: Attractive Design, Good Cut, Lightweight, Versatile Cons: Suede particles ruboff Best Uses: Casual dressy, Going Out, Travel Describe Yourself: Classic Dresser Sizing: Feels true to size Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: I use the vest with sportcoat; also as casual dress with shirt-and-tie. Also good for light casual wear.Vest is too fragile for rough-casual wear. Biggest problem is that suede particles come off on shirt sleeves. I returned the first vest, but the second one also sheds, but not as bad. I'm considering keeping the second one shipped, but am not sure. It is sad. Nicest vest I've ever bought. I'm disappointed that the vests may all be dried out [...] JEV

By Merovingian from McHenry, IL on 02/02/2009 Pros: Attractive Design, Lightweight Describe Yourself: Trendy/Stylish Dresser Sizing: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This vest is so good that I bought 3 (Amber/Camel/Acorn)! I wear it to the office and when going out. The color and texture are wonderful and the sizing fits pretty much right on. Most L sizes by other companies (Express) fit a little larger, but this Golden Bear vest fits perfectly. There really aren't any cons to the vest.

It reminds me of the classic J. Peterman vests, but at half the price. Enjoy...
