Search Results for ‘waistcoat’

Hi All, I have read numerous guides and forum posts. The consensus is that the vest should cover the waistband completely, but I'm not clear on how much longer the vest should go past the waistband. I've heard the advice of going past the waistband by an inch or so, but I'm uncertain whether...
