Mens denim vests

It is believed that vests appeared in the men's wardrobe in the 17th century. Until the 60s. In the twentieth century, they were an obligatory component of the costume, and then they ceased to be part of it - this is how a two-piece suit appeared. Around the same time (50-60s) jeans became everyday clothes and denim jackets came into fashion. Denim vests became part of fashionable images in the 70s and 80s. Time has passed, and today denim vests are again among the current trends.

At the beginning of the twentieth century, denim clothing served as a uniform: people who worked physically wore it to work. Now denim is one of the components of the casual style.
