1940s NYC Transit Vests
These 1930s-1940s NYC Transit Wool vests are some of the coolest workwear pieces we’ve found this past year.
They have a very USN feel to them… when we first saw them, we thought they were some Navy issued garment we didn’t know about!
Found in New York City last fall, and have been saving them for this portrait and this collection ever since.
We are huge vest person. So we may like these more than most people. 😅
But if you’re also a vest person and you also love them— snag them so you can be twins with your person and go places together. 🚊
