    Source for PC vests?

    I'm looking for a prince charlie vest in black wool. I have a feeling that most three button tux vests would work, but the only ones I've seen are backless. I noticed Atlanta kilts has them, but I'd prefer to avoid polyester. There are some on eBay for around $65, but I'm a little dubious.

    Any thoughts?

    Any vendor who sells Prince Charlie Coatees could sell you just a vest.
    I would contact a few with pictures of your PC so the vendor can insure that the vest will be close in style and manufacture.
    If you know who made your PC all the better. Trying to get a good looking match to a UK made, high quality PC, with a vest made in Pakistan may be a bit of a problem

    You could look into this supplier:-

    (You need to scroll down to the bottom of the page)

    It does say made in the UK.

    What if one wanted a PC waistcoat (three button, full back) in a color other than black? Like red - scarlet, almost offensive red - not burgundy or some subtle red-like hue? Any ideas?
