Edward - I find waistcoats great for warmer days.

If you're after something a little more English, these are worth a look: http://www.crojack.co.uk/p-23/trick

I like the vest. I don't do the jeans on jeans look but the stripes make it work. Is "The Work Wear Manufacturers" the brand?
I believe that is the brand, ive seen a few other pieces from this brand before but nothing as nice as this.
This is exactly what I was looking for, for when the weather gets warm. I to prefer vests rather than jackets in the summer.

I have a shirt that looks to be the same, but in a plaid cotton twill. Are the front buttons positioned very close to the left-hand edge of the right side of the shirt? Mine are and it tends to gap between buttons as a result. In other respects, I like the fit and details of the shirt very much.
