- I have to figure that stuff out. I guess I'll check some men's sites and see what they say and talk to the guy at the store. - Krusty Sep 13, 21:38 6
  - I am a sucker for double breasted with wide lapels. but this is a question best answered by the women here. - Peglegpete Sep 13, 21:52 5
    - i love lapelled vests -- nm - zeitgeist Sep 13, 21:55 4
